Ok now my golf GTi is sitting outside my house all shiny and polished and looking all devil red ive been thinking what i can do with it and listing what i would like too do. Theres loads of questions i want to ask and ideas to throw around so here i go
First of this is my list of wants and do's in no real order.
Delock and remove handles both doors and boot and fit some sort of door poppers.
I want to get a front bumper and rear bumper that will make the car look good but not be over sized, i want subtle (spelling) but "hey thats different".
Rally style rims, looking at white really but have found that white is not very common but i love white rims so i will be looking hard. Can you get tires for road cars that are good for tarmac and gravel????
Thinking about eye lids, but thinking about angel eye lights too.
Better suspension, where i live theres crap roads, pot holes lots of gravel, mud and bumps and i dont need super low sus as it really wont help. i want what they would set up on a rally car for tarmac/gravel conditions.
to be continued....i gotta rush out.
Ok where was i....
Then theres getting more power for my money. This is ive no idea on really apart from filter upgrade and exhaust but what types and where to look ive no idea. Basically i want to know of people whats the best i can get out of my stock engine, 2.0 8v GTi, i cant and dont want to change the engine i just want to know what i can add to it that will give it more beef. Everything that can be done to my engine i want to know about, i was reading about turbos on non turbo engines, sounded interesting but can it be done on mine?? Also on the exhaust front i want one that will improve my car but not make it sound like im starting a grand prix every time i pull away, i want a quiet exhaust.
So im after suggestions on everything ive just mentioned and anything anyone can think of that ive not mentioned, links to sites on how to do stuff, links to sites on where to get stuff, help and lots more help. im all ears and eyes and im wanting to learn as much as i can.
