Just finished a long night of car mods, the full decat is on along with the lambda spacer, then i put the rear stright through pipe and exhaust tip on,

fmic is pretty much plumbed in, i need to get some more hose clips and do a few minor adjustments to get it sitting perfect, also had enough pipe left to relocate the airfilter to the bumper, cai style.

and thats about it, piccies

Can't fault you or your car mate, love to see it when someone does all the work themselves. Sure you'll be even more happy with the car when its finished because you did it. Really like the photo story too, have been checking it out every couple of days to see how your gettin on, thats after gettin some stick sayin us mk5'ers never leave the mk5 section :laugh:

i think is  shorter the route the better the efficacy is ... so it maybe worth tryin to re-route the layout .....

hey guy's.

nearing the end now haha yeah right,

got the front bumper mounted, but really not happy with it, im guna chop and make it fit alot better, then i have some adjustments to do on the bonnet and grill to make that shut perfect, a few rubbers and the petrol flap to go on and its time to polish it,

took it for a quick drive to settle the suspension before they get adjusted, it sounds evil lol and spools up pretty much the same as before which is nice, although i have had a part to play in that ;)

piccies





and a vid from last night, the mrs filmed it for me lol
