    Clip received this week, thank-you, I really appreciate you sending that for me :-)

    Yep, same as mk2 golf :-)

    It clips on the side lug of the fusebox, but you must make sure the small moulded peg on the fusebox is located in the hole in the metal end mounting bracket, otherwise the clip won't fit.

    Has anyone got one of these they would like to sell? Mines gone AWOL! Part no. 191 941 856, clips to the side of the fuse box. I'm happy to pay via paypal, and would need it posted to Essex, thanks.

    Do you miss the extra 2 cylinders?

    Steve, finally installed my kit yesterday. It looks superb, why didn't vw make them illuminate properly from the start! Cheers phil. (You were chatting to me next to my green 16v at North Weald a few weeks ago).

    Yep, it looked pretty tidy.

    Sorry Mark, only just seen your message. Pretty good thanks, very busy with work, if you need any BMUs, you know who to call ;) Did you go in the end? I was there from 10.30 till about 5.00. It was a really good day, despite concern over the weather - not one drop of rain the whole time I was there!

    It's every 2nd Monday of the Month, so there's always next month!

    Club GTI are trying to organise to put together an agreement with TPS and Halfords for it's members at the moment...

    Like wbx6dan, the only one which will fit my Corrado is the gearbox mount. If he pulls out, I'd be interested in buying it, but only that one.

    This excellent news Anna :) I also was not aware of the discount available!
  18. corradophil
    Well spotted, I have ordered one to go with my Red, Yellow and Blue ones!

    That dyno tends to read a bit lower than others. For instance power from a car which ran on this dyno (Garage Streamline) was 194bhp, it then made 202bhp at tsr. It's all a bit of a lottery and dependent on so many variables. If you apply that ratio mine would make 192bhp at tsr, and the yellow one 258bhp at tsr. Having said that the yellow one did require further mapping and unfortunately suffered detonation on a track day causing some serious damage. It's now re-built!
  20. corradophil
    Thanks :) The yellow one is a 1.8t with a k04 turbo. It's very quick!

    This is mine and a friends two Corrado's on the dyno :)

    Have a read of post #19 on the thread I linked to. It shows a comparison between kr and abf cams, someone measured the lift and duration using professional equipment. Abf has more lift and similar duration to kr.
  23. corradophil
    Ingersoll Rand are supposed to be good. Also check out Chicago Pneumatic. I have a CP impact gun, and it is a very nice bit of kit.
  24. corradophil
    Mine uses the original distributor for crank position by the way. For what I need, it seems to be fine.
  25. corradophil
    Very nice Corrado, and makes a change sticking with the 16v. Regarding the cams have a read of this thread http://www.clubgti.com/showthread.php?156126-A-VW-16v-camshaft-study I would, and indeed have use both ABF cams. Mines a 9a with a KR head, ABF cams and Toyota ITBs. A bit of a mixture, but it works :) On a dyno known to be pessimistic it achieved this
