My New Car
« on: 13 May 2009, 18:30 »
Hi There!

Im new here and just thought i'd start by putting up a few pictures of my Golf!

I brought it a couple of weeks ago, and im chuffed to bits with how it looks/runs!

So i gave it a quick wash last sunday to get a fewpics while the weather was good!





What do you all think?

im looking for some basic things to do for little expense! such as spray the wood trim, and get rid of the random RS' badge on the rear!

any ideas / suggestions of next things?

It has a dump valve but im unsure what one it is tbh, i will find out!

Very interested in the R32 kit, but unsure on how much it will cost and where to get the kit from, so any advice in that area would be much appreciated! :D


thanks!!

Matt

a recirc valve recirculates the air from the turbo, a dump valve dumps it out into the atmosphere, which is where the pshhhhh comes from :)
