MK2 I.8T CONVERSION
« on: 23 July 2012, 09:37 »
Does anyone know of a good mechanic who is able to do a complete 1.8t conversion to my mk2 and any idea of costs? Thinking of doing it to mine.

This, he's based up in Leeds but when you see the quality of the conversions he does it'll be worth the travelling.

How many actual customer conversions has he done now then?
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

Yeah, but there's also Brad's and Ben's MK3s which are both pretty damn impressive.

But money-no-object conversions for yourself (not a customer) don't really count for a business, do they?

True, but it is still an example of what they are capable of.
