Leeson 0 Posted May 29, 2006 i have about 27bhp at the mo...it took me a lot of fiddling about with the jets before i could get much power out of it. i had the problem of too much fuel and not enough gas but finally have it running ok i have had about 27bhp at some parts on the rolling road which isnt to bad for a basic kit... i dont tend to use it much anymore..

Nick 0 Posted May 31, 2006 I was shown this back in febs(?) issue of Golf+ (i think). I can remember thinking "i dont like bodykits, but i like this" Never worked out why, but still love it. What kit is it out of interest? Why do you want to go back to 16's? Especially if you've got to change your expensive brakes too. (admittidely id have 16's over 17's but if you've already got them...) :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
