    Feels great at about 3500rpm when its starts boosting up, also love the S/C whine. The BFI stg1 mount that have just gone in take abit to get use to, but supposedly soften up a little bit after a week or so.

    Makes decent power for a 200,000kms stock engine that has alot of blow-by, about 220hp at 6500rpm.



    I do all the work myself, except the tuning which was done by Graham West Workshop in Adelaide (Autronic dealer in SA) and machining work on my new engine all done by Chris Milton Engine Development in Adelaide also.

    Right, not much to say to be honest but I think it is a fanstastic looking little car after all, anything faster and I'd be in a tangled mess on the side of the road.

    Oh, and I'll be getting a MK4 gti in 6 months (Gasp), yes I know, thats if I keep my current job anyway.

    Current:
    *Eibach pro kit springs
    *Modded air box
    *Ebay souvlaki powered chip
    *16 x 7 inch 10 spoke rims with W rated 205/45 silverstone kruizers
    *Alpine 200 watt head deck
    *Momo carbon gear knob
    *Clearcoated interior fixtures
    *Rear wing removed and plugged
    *"Golf GL" rear badge removed
    *Front lip smoothed, painted and clearcoated
    *Eyebrows with clearcoat
    *Front grill clearcoated
    *White front indicators
    *Smoked side markers
    *Rims resprayed in black by me on the left side

    *Alot spent on repairs

    *Tinted stock tailights (indicator down)
    *MK4 GTI floormats

    Near Future:
    *Gloss Black wheels all round (i.e 2 more sanded already)
    *Rear trim on bumper smoothed and painted and clearcoated (sanded already)
    *Side skirts smoothed, painted and clearcoated
    *VR6 euro lip, smoothed, painted and clearcoated

    *MK4 GTI

    If I get fired:
    *Smoked front markers and reflectors
    *Performance panel filter
    *Window tinting
    *400 watt amp

    The car has almost reached its limit in the modifcations department so I intend to move on soon anyway... Keep an eye on the classifieds...

    Oh and is that a hair dryer I see?
    Oh and to you VR6 guys...

    first guy to forced induction wins nationals.
