cannot wait now, how long have you had yours for and what mileage is it on?

but would it make much difference? or not worth it, are the stock boxes good enough with something like a green cotten panel filter in it?

Just thinking about installing a Carbonio on the Rado' ? I know from the Golf mkiv forums that the V engines do well from them more as opposed to the turbo'd cars, has anyone done it? I would like to achieve closer to 200bhp and then possible look at a remap, or am I being silly, I have no experience with these cars so any advise is appreciated please. Lee

Possibly buying a VR6 on Saturday, 1995 M, 106k, all seems to work except the blowers only on setting 4, and the sunroof has power but doesn't work. Hopefully I can try and fix these or at least try??? What are these cars like with this sort of mileage? Will it have lost much of the original 190bhp? I have a 2 hour drive back on the motorway, how are they on these kind of trips.... noisy, smooth? And as I won't get to push it too much on a test drive really, once warmed up and after 10-15 mins driving when is the power really avaliable, I have a 2.3 V5 150bhp now and it really wakes up at 3500rpm plus and has bucketloads of low town torque.... Also looking into a breakdown service which I don't currently have, thought it would be good practice as I use the car daily for work. Thanks guys in advance. Lee
