Hi my dad needs some new performance leads I think u call them for his the leads that go on top of the engine :undecided:
Where is the best place to get them?
Thanks
Also his is an auto and at times it will jerk forward? Any ideas? :smiley:

Just get good quality standard leads,performance leads are very expensive and you will see no gains imo ,Carparts4less,eurocarparts,GSF
what mileage has the vr6 done,try changing the gearbox oil, dont know if they have a filter .

No decided to cancel it mate, got insured on vr6 instead. Don't use the car enough to justify spending £200+ a month :cry: plus would mean I couldn't mod it :wink:

Ah good choice! So you gunna end up falling in love with your dads vr and wanting a mk3 yourself? The not being able to mod the car is the major point that would put me off a new car on credit

No new plan is to run this for a year save up and keep looking for a mk2 1.8t/ vr6 :evil:
Luckily this one is pretty much modded just need some leathers and if the engine wasn't so old would stick a turbo on there :D

I looked into the vr6 turbo route. Made a list and was going all out 3.0 block etc. Spoke to a lot of people across the pond and they said I would get 550whp. Complety undriveable just wheel spinning torque steer. Pain in traffic and in town. Then after building gearbox, brakes etc. Was looking at wrong side of £10,000.
