Im an Audi/Volswagen techy so after selling my astra i was looking for a vw anyways and this opportunity cropt up so i thought for that price i couldnt resist,current mileage from starting this 'dub' project sits at 43501

Not had much funds recently to invest in anything but seen as it was winter time coming up a thought why not under seal her for the sake of 2 tins of underseal and 30mins work , good investment if ur intending to keep ur car for a while , and this how it looked
pics not greatest but better than nothing




Next up can it/will it fit, im sure witha  bit of modifications my 2.0lite a3 Intercooler can fit what use think:D?




Looking for a turboback/cat back 2.5 exhaust if anyones selling any , if not that will be my next invesment next month
