Must say; you and Rob are really stepping it up for the Mk3(.5) boys.

Proper jealous.  :kiss:

True that.

Thanks for all the comments guys

Still have alot of stuff to do on it but it's getting there

Few plans are:
Short runner intake manifold
6 branch
276 cams
Charge cooler or water injection

A few bits to tidy on the body work and probably going to get the rub strips done silver and a 4motion from splitter

Fitted a temp exhaust today as the 1.6 exhaust was making it loose loads of power

A friend of mind had a spare stainless exhaust I could use but when we went to fit it we found out it was for a early mk3 and none of the brackets fitted and it dident line up,

But a few hours later after a bit of work with welder a grinder and a bit of work it fitted

It's a bit big for my liking but it's only untill I get time to get a new one fitted

Does the job for now... Perhaps a single pipe of the same diameter?
