A quiet day today aside from my son managing to pick up a nasty head injury when a fierce gust of wind crushed his head between his car door and roof as he got in. Ouch. One trip to the A&E later...
So, being as the ol’ car has been ignored of late I decided I’d shove it up on some mini ramps
icici bank locatorThen clipped this little fella into place

My old JB1 unit off my much missed R.
Initial thoughts? I only took it for a short run so can’t really give much of a verdict. The ECU will still be adapting. Pulls harder in third once the turbo gets into its stride, I didn’t have a clear enough run to form an opinion of performance in the higher gears, way too much traffic.
Whilst trying not to snap my head off craning my neck under the car routing cables I found this inlet which directs air pretty much nowhere! I’ll assume it’s for a DSG cooler, mines a stone age manual car.
