[Mr. JLT]

when you say he BUILT it? do you mean bought all the parts and is just fitting them or he can make a carbon bonet and weld a air to water intercooler????

Sorry mate I can't make carbon bonets. I didnt bring my welder with me so I put together my own Awic kit through www.froozenboost.com. 1/3 of the price of PWR. I put together my own turbo kit instead of spending 7-10.$$$ on a kit and then taking my car to a shop to have it installed. I have done most of the work(motor,drivetrain,body) to my car myself and with the help of a few fellow Veedubers here and there. But if theres something that your looking for maybe I can point you in the right direction Cheers Jay

This is a great build thread and an inspiration to read.

Cheers.

This really is the problem today. Everyone assumes the only way to do something is to buy a heap of parts or "better yet", a kit and get someone to put it all together for you.

Sure it works, but you're paying for someone elses knowledge (which in some cases can be questionable). I'd rather get all the relevant information if i don't know it already and do it my own way with my own hands doing the work as much as possible. Much more satisfying and much, MUCH cheaper.


I salute you, Jay. You're very smart, skilled, and a cool guy to boot. 'Some' people should take more notice of guys like you.

Completely agree. I tend to jump in on the DIY with everything on my car, unless it's TOO much to do. I don't remember the last time someone else did something on my car though...

I've said it before and I'll say it again, this car is absolutely wicked and I will hate you forever. :p
