I'm intrigued as to what the 100 model is...... Bare posts mate. Remap, exhausts etc and pockets as deep as a mine

Can't a dump valve be fitted?  :grin:   What about an eBay sub £50 exhaust or a bodykit from Poland? Or perhaps a Chinese turbo?

Their good because they work better than the factory fitted diverter valve. Search my man or look in the sticky

mate go through maintenance section at top of mk4 section and use the bloody search button also at the top this has been covered about 1 million times..  but i recommend a baileys dump valve.. chinese turbos are a good investment.... cutting holes in bumper for cooling is a cheap mod.. using 2 wheel nuts instead of 5 saves weight which in turn makes you go faster..

anything else ??
