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 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?
