Ha! too right Mate 

Can't show anything yet Robz, got to get it all first then show the before and after shots 

Got some bits off Sam this morning and it's given me the underbonnet clean up bug 

Booking the local valeter for an underbonnet valet, then I can add these parts I've got this morning 

Off to ebay now to give my wallet a battering.......autosol, pipercross filter, gaskets, any other bling I can find for it and have a look around for a kr inlet cam 

[robz]

Lol, don't worry, barclays are paying, that's my moto most of the time!
Sounds like your onto something though!
Can't wait for pics

[Andy-H]

Nothing much to report, just popped this in today



While the airbox was open I did notice a lot of crap in there that will need removing when the easter holiday is here 

Also noticed that me decking needs another coat  :embarassed:

[Andy-H]

I also started on the engine bay yesterday after the filter had gone in.

It was looking a bit "brown" under there.........this is how it started.

                                       

                                       

I had to replace the rocker gasket so everything came off. While it was in bits I de-greased the rocker cover and gave it a couple of coats of exhaust paint I had left over from me biking days and I thought I had best put the polished 50mm inlet I bought on  this also meant I had to paint the lower inlet.

                                       

                                       

I also got a polished rocker cover to go on but I decided that a black cover would be the sensible option 

I have the valeting guy coming over to work on the 23rd of April to give the whole engine bay a good de-grease and steam clean, then I can carry on getting some shiny parts fitted.

[robz]

looking sweet that mate!!
love thw way youve got the vw emblem black, really looks clean and smart!
good work!

[Chris-White]

Feel any different going to the larger bore inlet manifold?

[Andy-H]

Unfortunately I can't take the credit for that Mate   it was all Sam's work.

It just makes the rest of the bay look sh!t now  

I've put the polished rocker cover on ebay to get some funds back for more bling  

Not actually been out in it yet Chris, the missus is blocking me in on the drive  .

I'm out in it this morning so I'll report back if there is any difference. I'm not sure whether it'll be the inlet or the Pipercross filter though 

[Wayne]

Very shiny
