With the turbo back exhaust I saw someone on here do a how to/DIY 2.5" turbo back down pipe but i have neither the tools or the welding skills to do this is there anywhere i can order one from, Then I will need to look in to how to do the governor mod and boost controller is i have NO IDea amount Turbos/Diesels and fuel injection al all for that matter having being used to doing carb stuff for the past couple of years, Oh and one more bit which of those is the cheapest to the most expensive please,

Cheers for all the advice tho guys, great to be here! ;D ;D

Turning up the fuel is cheap (except you'll be using more fuel  ;D )



The GTD I bought has an 8v GTI exhaust on it, not sure how big they are but it looks more ticker than 2" and has a lovely sound when floored.

Don't know how it's been made to fit, but when I looked under the car it looked like when all the way to the front of the car. Perhaps it's a custom turbo back pipe going to the 8v back box?
