Guys, Thanks for your replies! I cant help but think that the basics seem to work after the chip/pulley change - ie head/cam work! Definately going to run the std airbox and filter and delete the carbon filter! Have looked for the rallye intercooler/ubend kit but its so expensive used and can be hit and missed due to its origins! ie crashed etc... Is the Merc Sprinter IC worth it with the BBM rsr outlet???? any suggestions? Looked at the 65mm pulley/red top injectors and an sns chip but i get mixed opinions ref this set up and was told by Jabba to run 68mm/chip and std injectors??? Boost recirc deletion appears really mixed on opinion! I'm dubious because of this and cant help but think that if VW did it in this manner it must be there for a reason! Chassis of the car is not bad - KW Konigsports coilovers, std anti roll bar setup, brakes have braided lines, decent crossdrilled/grroved discs all round and matching pads and all in all appears fine especially has its just had an MOT! phew!! What i dont want to do is to spend money for the sake of it - I'm hoping to get to a few of the shows this coming year and thought i might show the car so my plans were to get the car to a good drivable std at a reasonable cost! Been out of the scene for a while and want to get back into it! I think i am going to concentrate on the intercooler setup first and then head and cam i guess - any prefs on whos who and whos best etc??

Ok - i have a G60 Corrado (91) which till now has been a completely standard car! I have just removed the original exhaust as it was falling apart and put a full miltek inc cat bypass system on and a jabbasport induction although i am now of the opinion of changing it back to the standard baffled airbox but without the snorkel! The next step is a 68mm pulley and a chip to match running std injectors! This i have ready to fit! The charger was overhauled at GWerks 4000 miles ago and this equates to about 2yrs in time since done! I am intending to run it temporarily and then have a stage 4 rebuild either GWerks or Jabba - anyone have opinion on this?? In March 09 i am off to the states for a few weeks and intending to get to BBM - fancy one of their intercooler pipe kits - has anyone had any experience of these or do you think its a waste of time and money???? Should i look to a Rallye U Bend and a FMIC (Vito?)..... I would really appreciate thoughts on the following areas too.... 1. Modified throttle body (ported and polished) - any good......? 2. BBM Intercooler Pipe kit? 3. Boost recirc deletion...? 4. SWG OE Airbox kit? 5. Carbon canister filter removal Is there anything else worth doing......? At the moment on testing the charger its reading 1700-1760 in 3rd and i have to say theres not too much low down but then builds well higher up the rev range but for stock - feels good! Look forward to your thoughts and help! :)

Thanks guys - so if the Corrado is heavier than the Golf then the Corrado suspension will be react a little harsher on the Golf due to it being lighter??? is that right?

I have a (91) G60 Corrado which i am about to put coilovers on, i also have a really nice original Golf Gti 8v (88) which has a horrible Boge/apex suspension kit on it and it totally ruins the car! My question is will the std Corrado suspension go on to the Golf?? They share so much but I have had conflicting information and manufacturers are divided as some list the corrado with the Golf and some dont! Any one know if this is ok/can be done???? Rgds Rob

Quick question but why can you not have poly hangers on a G60??

Can any one advise whether a VR6 Miltek system will fit a 91 G60 ?????
