Title: Yes another newbie! who needs help!
Post by: jacko191188 on 02 April 2008, 00:17

Hi everyone, just joined and im escaping from the french world! one word unreliable!

Anyway my car is being picked up thursday and i need a mk4 golf gti 1.8 t asap, but im picky, i want one with the anniversary kit on, and im looking up to £5500 max!

Hi everyone, Ive spotted one on autotrader but i just want some advice really, what to look out for, what to buy? etc.

the car ive seen looks nice, but im a little confused on what sps3 means? and i dont like the sound of the induction kit or dump valve. if he has been having these on there for a long time, do you think it could of played up the engine?

my intentions would be to get a standard box on there with k and n panel filter and smooth the box etc. and possibly a forge 007? ive heard these are ok, or am i wrong? seriously i know nothing about turbo cars, so any advice would be very very helpfull i dont want to make a mistake!

for the money that mk4 looks like a lot of car. fairly low mileage too.
