Let us know how that rack works. That is what I am intersted in. I might have to fab up a subframe to mount a VW rack if it works out right.

 

Congrats. Mine is set to fire up tomorrow as well after almost a year.

 

Looking good. I remember the video you posted quite some time ago. I can't believe how bar that engine bay is. Makes mine look like a CCF.

Have fun with her.

 

Well I took the rail to get rewelded and cameback home and installed it. It still leaks!!!! I think the reason I'm not upset is because I'm still so happy she started right up yesterday. I'll take it to get welded again tomorrw and hopefully go for a spin.

I'll keep you posted on the R&P kit.

 

question on the R&P kit....does it have the plugs and all to be used for power steering?

 

Nope!



Update:

I got the car tuned for idle and the 1000k mile break in. My tuner even told me "This Engine Feel strong Mon!! Were estimating 380-400whp at 15psi when we tune for boost. I drove the car home and she felt great.

Although the CP R&P turning Radius isn't that great, it's still 100XXX times better than the original crap. When I got on the Highway, OMG!! what a difference. If you turn the steering wheel one cm, the tires turn instantly. When ever I make it to the next SE meet, I'll let Alex (Directfreak) take it for a spin so he can give his opinion.


The only problem I had was that my Microtech Ignition booster fried, and the car is sitting at my job till Friday. As soon as I fix the problem and align the car I'll give another update.


Sitting at my boss's house.




Almost comlete engine bay

 

awesome work!!

 

very very nice i want one

 

Your car is awesome! I wanna see some videos at some point of this thing tearing up the streets! Deffinate inspiration for my car, hopefully one day I can afford some of the goodies you have!

 

Very Nice Luis!! Looking Damn Good!! You have the Intercooler EXACTLY as I want mine to look when I put the Mode 1 on the car.

Damn - That looks great.

 

Looks like we finally will be able to cruise together Alex. I've been driving the car everyday to work while I break in the motor, and she's running pretty good. Too bad I can't step on it yet until I tune for boost, but I can't wait to hear that turbo spooling at 15lbs

I took a few pics by the bay today. It should look much nicer when I paint it and slam it to the ground.

 

Wow....thats the only words that come out when I see this monster!

 

That car is dead f'ing sexy. Mad props to you.

 

oye you better come out to one of the meets bish... I wanna see this **** ride, you gotta take me for ride..

 

Damn fine job. Males me wish I had the narrower front fenders on my widebody.

 

Still running

Shot some small clips of my my car before I install the silencer and the Magnaflow muffler. Car was breaking up a bit and running rich cause the Microtech still needs tunning. At the moment I'm running a 3" straight back to a cheap as muffler.

I don't think you're running rich enough.
