well i might as well start a thread as over the next 3/6 months im going to get my car were i want it now im in a full time job with good pay.
so here's my car when i got it
not alot has changed on the out side apart from ive added a few stickers but not took pictures of them all.
first on my agenda was a decat pipe tip and forge diverter valve.
VW PASSAT AUDI A4 B5 1.8T 20V T SILICONE TURBO INTAKE PIPE AEB ATW AWM AVJ | eBay
then i started a build on a tripple gauge mount, and awaiting final filler and sand on to another coat of primer and then either matched fabric or just sprayed.
so as im not sure if im chipped/mapped etc as im too lazy to look, im running 18psi then drops to 12 at 5k pulls nice but need to investigate a off/on throttle jerking some times, and sometimes get a "lag" in throttle responce (any ideas?)
so i quickly decided with aragorn's help that either a 28rs or better adviced a t3 from a cosworth would work very well. so i started buying bits for that altho i did buy a tip for the ko3. but hey i wanted to lol, so ive decided to go with a t3, due to level of avaliblity and price, ie
**Sierra Sapphire RS Cosworth 4x4 Garrett T3 Turbocharger** | eBay
think this "should" be big enough lol!!
the piper cross looks tiny lol!!!
so end of month will bring a lovley 3" down pipe and 2.5 " back, as loud as you like basicly. but i need to have it fitted with the decat to make sure its not to loud! and then also a fmic but, i need to know what diameter pipes im going to need for the t3, any one know the rough diameter of the outlet on the compressor?
any how thats were i am, so along side that ill be doing a boot build and if i can be ***** get the carpets and seats out and door cards off then ill be putting dynamat in as the boot floor is flimsy so need to put a nice sturdy base, then going to find some bose speakers as i know these are very good all-round sound
have twin kenwood subs but i had to shorten the depth of the box to fit in a mk3 golf from a 3 series bmw, but back to a big boot again i want to make it the correct size again. as it fails to hit any low notes and getting a nasty drone mid bass, maybe around 30hz almost like it gets really boomy and bassy but either side its pants, when it was in the original box i built it sounded sweet right down to some low notes had a 3cuft box but now only a 2cuft optimal for two subs is 3cuft, so going back to what i know works, both ran but a 900wrms kenwood d class monoblock, works very well.
so many updates to come. fitting brembos tomorrow along with sorting my intake out. fitting a cold air feed or/and fitting the piper cross
