Is there a chance you may have the quickest polo GTI after all this?! What else after the turbo...

Most likely. :evil:

After the turbo, there's still plenty of scope for improvement.  :wink:

Did read somewhere that you were getting the turbo fitted or am I going crazy?

Been a little busy of late. :embarassed:

The car is booked in for an upgrade intercooler (35% larger), an upgrade radiator (78% volume increase) and the hybrid turbo fitting on the 8th March. The front of the car has to come off to get to the turbo anyway, so it made sense to have the others fitted at the same time. They are being made now, so the delay is for the I/c and rad.

Thanks to Gulfstream I also have a nice new shiny footrest to put my tootsies on too :cool:





Stocked up on Methanol too!!!


Just for Gulfstream.....They are exactly the same as the MKV ones I had



I haven't many pics of the rear, but here are a few I do have...

The upgrades sound intense. How many extra ponies are you hoping to gain?

No-one knows what bhp the car will get yet as I'll be the first to have this combo. Somewhere north of 270 bhp would be a start :wink:
