• for city driving its good as it is now.
  even on bigger travels i can mantain a good speed without flooring the pedal.
  the temps are lower and only making 0.5/0.6 bar at 140/15 on straight
  
  just trying to get some time and money to instal a new and bigger downpipe and advance the pump a  bit

• Very nice
  Did you install the oil squirters?
• #5 by carrizog60 on 11 Jan, 2007 05:11
• no.
  the engine is stock rebuilt 1.6D.
  still holding fine even at 180km trips at 140/160km/h

• Hey, that is a very nice car, very impressive. Love the videos. Why did you take off the GTi Lip spoiler?
• #7 by carrizog60 on 11 Jan, 2007 15:19
• i take off the lip because on the roads i pass it was too low.
  i am going to lower the car -6cm so the lip will be riped of in 1km...
  
  80-120 in 3ª: 5s
  80-120 in 4ª: 6s
  80-120 in 5ª: +-8(?)
  
  with the fuel i have now the car seems to drown in fuel and not accelarate as fast but i think as soon i chage my stock airbox and paper filter for one open air(with custom heatshield) and larger downpipe that issue will be gone

• Kick ASS!!!

• I know I'm jealous... I want a lot of that for my Terc. New paint, better seats (though the SR5 factory ones are really not that bad) engine perf, BETTER GEARBOX... That is one heck of a ride I must say.

• thank you.
  for a daily driver is very good,still high mileage with a tank and very good performances!

• Looking very nice indeed, and that's a swift looking 0-60.  I've just got a set of clocks from a GTI so I can get a rev counter in, as I really miss not having one!
  Has the intercooler made a great deal of difference?  Did you up the fuelling at all?
  Cheers,
  Tom

• i mounted the i.c. before increasing fuel so i dont know if it would make any diferences but i bet it would.
  as for power upgrades i have uped the fuel,turned the lda pin to the agressive side(pin number is 51) and turned the WG screw all the way in.
  for now i am not with much fuel as my wife didnt like the smog the car was making lol.
  when i have the time and money i will replace the downpipe with a larger one and as soon as the cone filter arrives i will try to make a custom heatshield and replace the stock airbox and paper filter... :oops:

• Looks good! I like the westy grille and lights, something I intend to try on mine at some point.
  
  Tom - try this as a tacho, might be easier than fitting the golf clocks.
