I need to get this started.
Got he old girl back in 2004 for a total of £7000.
She was prity standerd with just a little audo up grade.
This is how she was.
The only thing i did here was add a little colour to the calipers

[vwprime]

Next up where some new wheels. A8 18"
At the time there where not to many cars running these and thay looked mega on a silver car.


The addition of some in-pro rear lights to bring the silver theam in

[vwprime]

The addition of an new air filter and Dump valve was next. Thay both mad all the right noses 

[vwprime]

Next up was a front mounted intercooler.
I organly got the cooler from a trip to the Essen motorshow in Germany. At the time when i sore it on the shelf it didnt look that big. it wasen't untill i got it home i could see the car would need afew bits cut away to house the things. I will let the photos do the talking.

I then had to drill and attach the cooler to the crash bar.

Next came pip work.

What i havent got pichers of was the pipe that comes out of the turbo and heads of down to the IC, i had to have made as the Dv and a vacuam pipe need to be attached to this. Also with the metal i cut out of the crash bar I ended up strenthaning on the other side, just in case if the worst was to happen the fron of the car would still be able to take a good clout.
This was my first insterlation. Since then its been of a few more times and this is how it is today.

I made up 2 brackets to move the IC as far back as i could to give me more room on the bumper

[vwprime]

The Origanl air box was put back on and a Turbo Intake Pipe added (will cover that later) added so the pipes had to moved one last time.



A Fordge Spit DV was added here

With the bumper one. A little grinding was needed to get it all to fit.
