    Mk4 Golf GTI Build Thread

    Haha indeed it does! I love the way it sounds and I also love the way it looks. You're right, I agree it's very hard. I've seen a 5'' tip on one like you'd see on some rice banger and it was shameful. The Golf just looks silly with a fat tip, so I went for dual tips of a smaller diameter.

    Thanks, it's one of the better options. My old FK sport grill was ugly, the notch fillers were garbage. The only problem with this one is that it isn't [technically] compatible with a Boser hood because of the built in top notch filler. Waiting on my exhaust still, being held up in Winnipeg...

    Thanks, I also finally got a grill that isn't ugly a few months back. I was in a car show in Three Hills alberta and had supringly quite a few people of interest for such a basic car (when surrounded by saleens and other super cars and classics) It's a Kamei grill, take a look.

    Just waiting for that item to come in the mail, it takes 5 - 15 business days for them to build the exhaust, considering they use Magnaflow products I don't understand the hold up but it is what it is. Are there any other VW enthusiasts kickin' around here?

    Been a while since I've posted. Today I finally ordered my 42 Drafts Design 3'' Turbo-back exhaust system seen here http://www.42draftdesigns.com/categories/products/mk43intb.html . I've chosen to use the street package with the high flow Magnaflow catalytic converter. The car has been...

    My research has made me determine that the Garrett GT28RS would be best for my project but I'm unsure of the housing size. I'm looking for around 300hp, there are built GT-R's and 180sx's I got to compete with these days.. and stock cobalts are pushing 13lbs if i remember correct? gotta keep up...

    Preparing to head into stage 2 with a 3'' MAF, Eurojet FMI, 42 Drafts Design 2.5'' exhaust, 380cc injectors, GT28RS turbo, GIAC software and a Forge adjustable wastegate. The local shop that's going to reflash my ECU is recommending AWE 2.5'' exhaust for the 1.8T because they specialize in...

    Right, I will have to upgrade to a 3'' MAF and a 2.5'' downpipe and exhaust, I've been told AWE makes quality parts for the VW/Audi. 380cc injectors atleast, a larger FMI and then upgrade to stage 2 GIAC performance software. Some more pics of the car..

Today the car is in at Mr. Transmission getting a new Sachs performance clutch it in the car as I burned...
