Welcome to our new sponsor Lecatona, a brand dedicated to enhancing performance for VAG group sports cars, including SEAT, Audi, Volkswagen and Škoda. Specializing in High Pressure Fuel Pump (HPFP) upgrades.
Thanks Tom, very much appreciated
.Cracking job mate.
Do you not fancy posting the dimensions up? I fancy have a crack at this sometime in the future.
I sure can, let me measure the finished version this weekend when I drill the holes in it and rivet on the bracket to hold the bottom and front walls. The dimensions on that first cardboard cut out are a little off, I tweaked things here and there and now it's dead tight.
I've had a couple of people ask me to send them the template
Thanks you my twin
.Just ordered some PVCu edging to give it that 'Jabba' look, will spray with Hammerite this weekend hopefully and it'll be in.
Total cost: +/- £25 inc tin snips that I had to buy

Looks good Jay! Cant wait to see the finished product
Me either, I have a huge sense of achievement with this even though it's a simple enough thing to do
. It's nice to design something from stratch that is your own although by the looks of it a few others will be using the 'Jamspeed' shield in future.+1 for JamspeedMe either, I have a huge sense of achievement with this even though it's a simple enough thing to do
Looks great Jason. I should imagine that it'll look even better, and very oem, once painted black.
How's the car running? Well I hope?
+2 for Jamspeed!

It would be much appreciated mate

Hell yeah £25 for Jamspeed £90+ for Jabba Shield!
Heat Shield DONE!
Loving the support for Jamspeed, I think I might get a sticker made up
Well heatsheild is done! I planned on spraying it black but it really doesn't need it. I'm so pleased with this, it fits perfectly and looks great. Let me know what you think
I have also been sneaky and not reminded you of my exhaust plans. The car now has a true, full 3" TB system with one cylindrical silencer at the rear and it sounds awesome. Yes it is loud but this is what I wanted and I do however have the car popping all the time, I love it. The sound of this on full boost is just awesome, pics & vids to follow soon but I'm too busy driving it.

This really does just show how much companies such as jabba rip us off.how much did this cost you to make? £10 max?
Thanks for the feedback, I am glad that you like my handywork . Max cost of this inc all tools you'll need is £30 but then you have to be prepared to put in the work and be competant working with metal and design. I'd happily knock a few of these out to be honest but would only be good for 3" TIP where you can cut it to adjust it.
Hi Sam, thanks for the link and video. Your car sounds great and that DV chatters nicely, which one is it? That isn't the sound I have though, wish it was DV chatter. I'm off out later to do some logs and vids.

Niiiiiiiiiiiice, liking that mate top stuff. Great to hear your enjoying the exhaust. The research paid off then!! Now stop being selfish and get the pics and sound clips up
Ok so here's a quick clip although the camera didn't capture the best sound.
