What did you do to your Polo today?

I know it's a pain, Jason, but I think you've made the right choice. There are so many 9N3 GTi's for sale now that you wouldn't get near what it's worth.

In about a year's time, I'll be kicking myself for not buying your front brakes...

You know you want the discs and pads Greg...

Ordering a Forge Wastegate actuator for my Frankenturbo.
Following a thread on VWVortex that says that the supplied actuators are inadequate for high boost.
Ebay have them but its two weeks delivery. Anyone know where I can get a Forge actuator FMACVAG01 asap.
Another setback to getting my car back on the road.

Holy crap hey! I've been watching that thread like a hawk. Bad news for Doug. Maybe just crank the crap out of your preload until he makes and official statement mate. Then he has to act as yours is still under warranty I presume.

Could explain Troys gremlins too.

I don't think mine is that good either, going Forge for the billet turbo that's coming up. Ade at PSI tuning will be supplying it next week after GTI International is over.

This is the thread.
VWVortex.com - Frankenturbo actuator testing

Not taking any chances. I am just going to change it.
Does anyone know if anyone stocks the forge actuators in Australia?
Two weeks delivery from Ebay.

first pics i've posted of my car as its starting to come together..

Added a few things recently

17" Evolo's & Shorter OEM Style antenna.



Yellow Lamin-x on Foglights and standard black grill



Installed AUX/SD/USB Input to the standard RCD200 Headunit.


New tyres (205/40/17), Coilovers and APR stage 1 are next on the cards but apart from that there's not much else i want to do with it.

Very nice!

Was it hard installing the AUX input to the RCD200? can you point me to the direction you bought?

cheers

Install was dead easy, it connects into the CD changer port on the back of the unit, hardest part was running the plug down through to where its mounted.

Picked it up from here: USB SD Aux MP3 Interface for V w RCD200 RCD300 RCD500 | eBay

bear in mind though max supported SD/USB is only 16GB.

Thanks for that!

I'm guessing you had to use the VW keys to take the whole radio out and plug it in like that??
