Title: FASTER FASTER
Post by: 87_PROJECT on 13 May 2003, 12:43

(apologies JV for two similair posts)

I'd like some suggestions of different ways to get more out of my mk2 golf...

Id like to go for the "wolf in sheeps clothing approach" any suggestions would be appreciated...

PS. great to meet everyone at gti international(those that i did,and apologies to those who didnt,maybe at the next no rice meet??)

There are so many mods you can do. The best has got to be a capacity increase, although slightly pricey.
On the cheeper side you you can...
Gas flow the head
Fit a full exhaust system/ reprofiled throttle body
Get a TSR exhaust manifold
Fit a high lift cam
Ensure that you only have cold air coming in the air filter
....the list is endless, just depends on how much you want to spend. The best thing to do is have a word with a vw performance specialist. If you live in the south there is decent place just outside Reading, the chaps there seem to know a fair bit about tuning golfs.
Hope that helps
Tom
