    Fitted an N75J I picked up this morning. Promptly jumped on the dyno and made a stately 103.9kw.
    Left the dyno day feeling properly dejected. Got home and did a little reading to find out they're meant to be installed backwards to how the stock one sits.
    Now have constant and addictive boost and much smoother delivery.
    What a muppet haha

    Learning the hard way is what its all about, know you know, next time you'll have that little light come on in the back of your mind.
    Shame you didn't get to dyno it above the 5psi.

    Did a very similar thing a few years back at a dyno day. Dyno'd my subaru and wondered why it made 110kwat. Scrathed my head, than realised as I had dual stage boost controller it was running low boost at 7psi, back on the dyno, flicked the switch 14psi and ~145kwat or whatever it made. That's more like it, haha.

    Not today thought, but a summary of the past few weeks


    What did you do to your Polo today?-20131121_160105-jpg
    Got some nice boost pipes and t-bolt clamps to replace the stock one, after that awkward incident happened last month

    Relocated the ProVent
    Mounting on the oil filter housing with some metal strapping
    To free up the space which it originally take on the path of the stock intake hose(mounted on the battery tray)
    Oh and upgraded the intake hose to the PD160 one

    What did you do to your Polo today?-20131202_162005-jpg
    Made a cone in box using the K&N Apollo filter with some aluminium sheet from bunnings
    Didn't have any 90 degree elbow handy, so used a section of a flexi pipe
    Nice to have all the bolts around the filter, makes mounting stuff easier
    Acceleration seems more responsive

    Plasti dipped the Vortex front bumper valance and fitted to the car
    Maybe I should get this colour coded?

    It looks like you're missing a clamp on the top of the down section of the IC piping, or is butted in there a looong way?

    There is a clip connector molded to that stock 90 degree bend
    No clamps needed, simply push in
    I'll need an adapter to change that bend to a reinforced one

    Bought my mistress a few xmas presents

    Pd160
    Seatsport fmic with bracket kit
    Forge intercooler pipe
    Forge 008 dv
    Ecs magnetic sump plug

    Coupled with the vibratechnics mounts that I already have, and the intercooler piping that I got from h100vw earlier this year, I think that I may have a busy weekend coming up.

    Looks good man! Had been hoping to see you at DOVW on the weekend and have a good look rather than just seeing you in passing at Karawara lol
