You need the VAG Turbo lump to fit the VAG box, I would of thought!
UPDATE: Manifold now fits as it should not fouling anything!
One step closer!
Remapping is booked for the 5th October for a little inspiration!
I used money supermarket and it came up with Bell, went on Bell website and got an extra 100 quid off :)
Money supermarket are good! just give a crap email otherwise you get loadsa junk!
Just a small after work meet would be good maybe, get people to know each other!?
Rain at Red Lodge is no go because they leave dry tyres on and never change them to suit conditions!
Powerflow in Bury St edmunds.
They're good mates of mine and good lads!
They made up the bend and Y pieces for me then my dad welded it.
Were in the third stage of getting the manifold ready! Little adjustments keep needing to be done!
Also been looking at Jenvey ITB's as I'm running...
Right couple of engine pics and one of the manifold being trial fitted.
Needs a bit of adjustment but looks the nuts!
And my new favourite place to sit!
Only 200 quid fo the pair!
Manifold got started tonight!
Completely changing it now using 2" pipe instead of standard which is a tad bigger than 1 3/4".
4 bend's to 2 Y pieces, then hopefully 2 pipes under car until first box!
Only in the way if it was to come out the same way as all the other ones, I'm just lengthening it and taking it the same route as the 16v one under everything!
Well, I have no more pics!
BUT I am making the manifold tomorrow night, mine needs to be lengthened to fit under the PAS rack! :(
Omex also came through at the weekend which is now half plugged in!
Still waiting for plumbing to be done then hoepfully should be a good job!
Didn't take me too long! Renault sport Logo was an after thought.
Wheels I can't remember what they are but they're actually 24" ones modelled on a landrover lol!
I did go mad with carbon fibre because the wings needed it because the skirt and lip looked out of place then thought better...
Saw another guys photoshop attempt at a 172 and reminded me of one I did a year back!
Thought I'd share it with you to see what you all reckon!
Will post up some other's I have done over the years if you like it!
Original
Special edition :p
Sorry if its in the wrong place mods :)
I have owned both, well a valver anyway :p
And they are both the same,
The valver handled nicely as did the 106, but the 106 sat quite high and was a bit prone to roll on some corners.
Gti was good fun to drive as it was a lot smaller it felt quicker, but it was fooking quick anyway...
Think he means the ones on outside, guessing from the 16v badge thing.
Doors have a screw on the opened side just inside the door.
Rear-quarter should just slide off one way or other!
Cheers.
Final engine running plans now going thorugh!
Juts getting the loom built in next couple of days from Omex when I finally pay them lol! O and somehow fitting the exhuast?!
But it looks liek you fitted a standard one no problem wayne?
Unfortunately not got anymore pics, but...
Pics of my first car, got it march 10th 2004, passed my test march 11th 2005, freaky!
what it looked like when i got it
Fave pic of it
When I sold it! With 'I got bored smoothing style' pmsl
Not to everyone's taste and not to mine now too! Sold it due to sunroof pissing me off...
