you just dont know how it would handle though - it could be great, or it could totally ruin your car

also I dont think the ECU pays any attention to the lambda probe at WOT. it only uses it at part throttle as part of its closed loop running cycle

you just want cool power slides dont you? 8)

I had a perfectly good Jetta syncro hacked to bits for my car - seems a bit sad but its for the greater good :roll:

Best looking engine bay I have ever seen. ever. you are a legend

Good stuff dude 8)

you number plate tells a bit of a porkie pie now doesnt it? Is this car that used to have a shricked up 3.1L VR in it?

you reckon the lambo was just coasting then? I was very supprised when it was pushing wide round the corners, as though the evo could hold a much tighter line, yet there was no sliding at all from the lambo, and the evo was all over the place!!! dodgy.....

Big white speed camera van on the main dual carriage way from carlisle to Glasgow. It was raining but I seen it mega early, and slowed hard from 90 to 70mph, I was then travelling at 70mph for about 30 secs before I passed underniether the flyover that it was parked on. My mate then informed me that they have a range of a mile, which has put the sh1ts up me.... f*ck. How long does it take to find out? is there anyway I can check to see if I have been caught or not? :cry: My number plate was filthy too so hopefully it couldnt get a proper reading at range :?

4k ;)

ok then - here they are at long last!!! My Mam is now a corrado VR6 owner - how damn cool is that?! and its mint to boot! its got an early spec bumper on it, as I know it has had a small knock on the front of it - the wheels will be for sale soon - standard wheels going back on (my mam doesnt like the ride with the 17sm on)

My engine has 9000 miles on it :D I have a bit to go yet! 8)

are we going to give out medals too? what about speaches? Plus we need a project in the making category plus plus I think we also need a best dead car category (that ones for henny :lol: )

love them rear lights on that green one. are they just tinted?

Kev, you should be renamed Captain Sensible :D

It depends on how small an intercooler I can get, I have a *little* space on teh left hand side as the radiator sits at an angle, but not much, but even then I couldnt get the boost piping round the front. Its most important to me for it to look right, and inconspicuous.

oops replied from page 1...didnt notice the conversation had moved on somewhat :oops:

what?! really? I would have thought it would cost a lot more to insure a car of well over twice the value?

major problem though - I have a mk4 golf 4 motion rad complete with aircon rad in front of that, its enormous - effectively ruling out a front mounted effort unless I want to be a total ding and stick it infront of the bumper..... :? I like the idea of the intercooler in the number plate position, but I am not sure what the hell to do with the plate? Ideally it would be best binned, but I dont think thats an option.

Any idea where?!? Can I do away with a front number plate altogether? I wanted to keep the car standard looking - the relocated number plate would certainly give the game away Although I agree its probablies the best option. Need to have a think......hey can you get number plates made of Mesh?! :D

I dont think I will have a problem with the expansion tank where it is. But I like that setup, thats what I am after. I will be fitting my airflowmeter after the charge cooler.....actually I am not so sure, I will have to have a think about it. If it were before the charger then it would probablies be the best reading, but on overrun if I have a dump or boost recirculation valve then it will read odd....dunno, never really thought about it - I suppose I will just put in the same position as the standard 24v charged motors. :D

yeah but I am going to have to have a 180 somewhere as the charger can only be mounted on the left hand side of the engine, and the throttle body is on the other side! Ouch those charge coolers arent exactly cheap are they?

how much are those charge coolers then? and where do you get them from?

f*ck me, and I thought phase shift was something that occured once on an episode of star trek.....

I have 312mm brakes too, but I only needed the thickness of 1 washer in them... havent we been here before? :)
