Has anyone added a billet gas cover to their C? I have been strongly thinking of adding one to mine. If you have pictures please post.

first make sure you install the cylinder head gasket in the correct position. below i will list the numbered holes in sequence for tightening. if you have the guide bolts screw them into holes 8 and 10 for placement of the cylinder head. Place the head. fit all the cylinder bolts, removing the guide bolts in holes 8 and 10 and fitting the regular head bolts. hand tighten only. once they are all hand tightened then tighten in sequence to 40Nm(29ft lb). when that is done then tighten in sequence to 60Nm(43 ft lb). when finished tighten in sequence another 1/2 turn (180 degrees) in one movement. this all should be done with the engine cold of course. 10 4 2 6 8 7 5 1 3 9 And yes i believe there is a gasket between the throttle boady and the intake manifold. i do hope this is for a G60......if not let me know and i will look up the VR6 specs.

Thats Sweet!! Nice bhp output and for a daily driver too..... again very nice and semi-unique.

I don't think so............i removed my center box and no axles were moved on my car. i replaced it with a bigger straight pipe and a supersprint backbox. The sound is GREAT!

Thats Nice..............what kind of wheels are those?

You Guys Get All The Good Stuff..............None of That Gets Shipped To The States.

Go Ahead......lets see the sexy wee beastie!!!

As i was looking at the picture again i noticed that you still have the stock air box on there. i don't know if you have done any mods to it or not but that was one of the first things i did when i boought my car over 8 yrs ago. i would sugguest removing it and adding a K&N or drilling the existing box out to let it breathe more.

Thats a nice engine. I am really suprised that VW didn't try and run this setup. Have you any idea of the number of horses you are running?

Scott bring it with.........they are rare over here...........you just dont see them anymore. If your saving 15k why not a couple more to ship the car over. it would save you from buying a car over here. you could also look at selling it to someone over here (temporarily) and have tem sell it back to you......hehe. any way......where in the states are you looking at settling?

Where in the US are you going?........i am sure there are plenty of people over here with information that can and would help you.

i have a question ................. is there any advantage or disadvantage to adding another inlet to the G-Ladder instead of blocking it off?

pull it......you can use a screwdriver and gently get leverage to lift it.........it should come right off after a little pressure. just be careful of what you pry against.

I ordered a lifter from VolsBits in Birmingham. They said the Corrado only needed one? is this true or did they shaft me? i am sure as strong as the strut is i wont have any trouble but i just wanted to be sure. thanks. mike

I am 32 years old. I have owned 3 VW's. I owned a 1989 Jetta GLI in Blue. I Have owned 2 1990 G60 Corrados. One of which i still own. Sold the black one and still have the yellow one. Thinking of getting another one....hehehe
