been on hol and just got back. as jon has said i gotta look into standalone more but im attracted by quite alot of features and certain areas of practicalitly!

as mork has said i may need to run both, which is one thing i want to investigate. for now im just going to build the engine and take it from there.

Excellent stuff, ive got a big build on for my mate, its Bills old golf. He's bought 2 LTR crank etc etc and all the goodies with equal length mani and ihi/garrett blower. I may not own a 1.8T any more, but i will leave my mark on a few yet.

sounds good to matt be interesting to see what comes of that also

 

[h17och]

i was soo close to going 2l but didnt as i didnt want to change my turbo. so i ordered 1.9l pistons and then bought a bigger blower. sods law

good luck with it matt. let us no how it goes

 

[cupra_matt]

Yeah will do mate, more interested in yours to be honest as the Ibiza is a challenge. The Golf has plenty of room for all the stuff whereas the beeza doesn't.

Baffled sump is on my list for sure! looking good fair play.
