I got the intercooler installed over the weekend. Picked up an alloy radiator yesterday which ill throw in over the weekend.





Modified manifold MK2..
I will test fit it tonight, and if the wastegates don't hit then it can be welded up and we can proceed

I replaced my Pettit ecu with an apexi. Got rid of the ugly air pump and installed the Pineapple racing pulley kit.

I used foam to fill in the holes around the battery box and AC Condensor so now all air are going to the intercooler and airbox!
Made a huge improvement at speed.

Need 19" and up to use the brake.
I have test fit it on the car and then take it off because the car not ready yet.
It will get dusty and dirty if I leave it on the wheel hub.

THREAD REVIVAL!!

I saw a similar thread in the FB section which made me go digging for this one so I wouldn't have to start a new one .
And as soon as I get home from work, I'm gna sit in my garage, crack open as brew, and just admire the beauty she is (while I wait for my cluster to get worked by Mike in Canada)!

What about you guys? What did you do to your FD today?

Walked right past it to fix the FB, and our dying furnace. Hopefully will have something more substantial soon, still collecting parts.

What all do you need? I have a bunch of random parts laying around my garage and spare bedroom that could use a good home.
