G-werks do a decat pipe for the rado, its a straight thru pipe, seems to work nicely, and sounds good to! http://www.g-werks.co.uk
-
Thanks Man! :D
-
no point playing the guessing game any longer either...lol Hopefully fingers crossed, i will be the owner of the mintest Aubergine ED1 Golf G60 ive seen in along time! Together with a brand new Engine..built by Darren @ G-werks...( approx 240bhp ) Cannot wait tbh... i literally only went to G-werks today to sort out my Toothed belt setup ended walking out practically buying a Golf lol...
-
nope 2wd i am afraid... Aubergine... My all time favourite colour!!
-
You could say that yeah...lol I am sure you wont be disspointed with the replacement... its an absolutely stunning example..just cant wait to get my hands on it! :D To give it away a bit, its got the same engine as my Corrado... that narrows it down a bit.
-
A record i think!! lol
-
Provisionally sold!!
-
Now For Sale! Ad coming soon Looking for 6K as it is now.
-
Yeah good point, i was getting mixed up, i thought he had put in a brand new engine at 94000 miles...lol
-
Colour looks really nice Aide! Better than i thought it would look! nice one!
-
check that the oil breather on the block isnt blocked or clogged up. Should be a pipe going from it to the airbox, when these get clogged it can make 16Vs smoke i believe. Wouldnt have thought the Valve stems would need doing already with a low mileage engine.

Charger should be in the country pretty soon, so i am told! but i am not counting on it lol... Yeah i bought a cheap Mk2 16v with a shagged engine, other than the engine its a pretty straight car tbh.. will prob sell it on for a bit of a profit hopefully!!
-
dont think so bud, it was gonna be for the Project Mk2 16v , but i already got hold of a complete 1.8 engine of a guy on edition38... just got to swap the engines over this weekend and i can MOT it! Cheers tho.

So when you getting the Jap car then Adam??...lol
-
Lets just say the 17" LMs cost enough...lol... RS301 money 8) They are ET40.. but i am running an 8mm spacer on the fronts and going to be running a 30mm spacer on the rear very soon with some negative camber so it will just tuck under the arches nicely i think. :D I am very imprest by how much these rims weigh aswell! very light wheels for a 17"

Project Shadow - NEW ROLLING ROAD RESULTS Pg8 and VIDEO!!
Shaggy replied to LisaK's topic in Members Gallery
Hi Mike, sorry I missed you at No-Rice. Yeah, was wondering about that, however mine happily goes along around 0.8bar between 3500 and 5800rpm, then by 6000 it has dropped to 0.6 bar. Presumably if it tried to go above 0.8 bar it will only vent until it gets back to 0.8 bar. Wonder if it's detecting knock and backing off?? Thats alright mate, i didnt even know you where there..lol Yeah that would also explain it then... the ISV bleeds of at 5800rpm regardless i think. its part of the ECU map i believe. The only way to get around the problem is to either remove the ISV or get a re-route kit.... but its not yet proven whether its a safe method tbh... Or you could just get a 250kpa map sensor.. this would mean the isv would bleed of at higher pressure.. you would also need to get the car remapped again.. -
You can get a full stainless option now. :D i must admit i was half tempted to get a jetex myself!
-
Ive heard the Jetex is a very good fitting system.. 2.5" Bore aswell i believe..so should work nicely :D The Milteks dont seem to fit very well IMO.

At that sort of revs the ISV maybe opening trying to get rid of excess boost?? 0.8bar max on most G60s then the ISV bleeds..?? -
