Firstly, I wouldnt mess about with standard boost, have heard of people doing alot of damage with the manual controllers.

The intercooler I have got is like this one, only a small front, I got the r32 bumper though so it fits in there perfectly!

Will always love my mk4 but she had to go...225 Quattro TT in its place....but its still black (she lives on in spirit!)

Thats the size I was thinking about. TBH that would be perect.

Manual boost controlers do get a bad name, but if you have a pretty much standard engine a manual boost controller is good ONLY if you want to increase by 2 or 3 psi. But after that I would go for electronic boost control. You can get them quite cheap.

Manual boost controllers do have a bad name, its always good to play it safe.

Where did you get the IC from??

To be honest mate, im saving for the jabba sport controller, its £200 supplied and fitted and they set it up to your engine/mods.

Got it off ebay (search golf fmic), that turbo revs once looks like a good kit, mine didnt come with mounting brackets otherwise I would have been up croydon fitting it today  :cry:
