these,arenewbie questions but bare with me im new to,gti.wont take me long,learn

[gtimadmike]

not got a gti yet but will be getting a mk4 turbo and would like to learn as muc as i can before i get it.

am i right in thinking that a chirping sound on the turbo is no a good thing? (to0 much back pressure)?
how easy are boost guages,oil,water etc to fit or not to fit if that is the case and i will leave it at that for now haha

[nodwardo]

Gauges are piss easy to fit aslong as you locate the parts you want to 'sense'  usually you get instructions anyway mate but unless your confident get a proper person to do it

[gtimadmike]

yeah pretty confident pal, im not too bad with stuff like that ive never had a gti b4 are mk4s fast lol

[nodwardo]

Erm they can be made fast mate....depends how much you want to plow into it lol

[gtimadmike]

i guess what im saying are stocks pretty nippy but can be made to be beasts

[nodwardo]

Stocks arent too bad but they can be made quick. I had an s3 a few year back with an 1.8t in....similar engine....and had that too 300bhp and that was nippy to say the least lol

[gtimadmike]

[nodwardo]

Turbos
Manifolds
fuels pump
Oil pump
Injectors
Coil packs
Plugs
Filter
Remap
Front mount
Etc etc etc

You could go berserk lol

[gtimadmike]

ahhhhh i seee hahaha i better get learning about all that then lmao

[nodwardo]

Your best bet is too look for build threads on here for other members experiences with parts etc to get an idea of whats best to buy.
