Mr Wookie's LCR - It's Back (although it never actually left.)

[Lee M]

I'm Running Custom Code Phase 1 mate, just like you , so i'd of expected good figures. I'm gonna try putting the N249 bypass back in as it did seem to work well when I did it recently for diagnosis of a boosting problem (which ended up being the 249 solenoid valve!!). I've fitted a new one now.

I'll keep you posted. I'll stick my curves up when I get home so you can have a look to compare.

Would love to work towards getting Stage 2 map done, and break 300bhp on a K04,

GL mate, with your ported head you might be able to scrape it with WMI. get a new inlet mani on there and its a sure thing

Nice figs for Stage 1

Where did you find them John???

Oh and not to over do it I'm gonna do the rocker cover in matt black to blend with the back of the inlet manifold. Doing the charge pipe brackets the same as well.

JCapsOnline (in the MK IV Golf section). They're in America and some say they're a bit expensive but we've got Gordon to thank for that have'nt we? The washer bottle caps are very well made though, I'm really happy with it and of course not many people have them. The power Steering Cap was from eBay together with my Forge Oil and Water caps but it's available from the same site and they charge a flat shipping fee to the UK so it might work out pretty reasonable.

As it's you Ed I've just trawled through all my subcribed threads and found this for you to have a look at; http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/showthread.php?t=226446.
At the time the washer bottle cap cost me $64.99 + $26 for shipping. $90.99 is £55.72 so not cheap but well worth it imo.

Nice one Ed, you won't be sorry.

Another small update as got my self a new headunit as my Aura finally gave up the ghost and the changer eat a load of my CD's at the same time.

Wanted something that I could use my Ipod with but could browse through tracks and artists from the headunit and not have to just stick the Ipod on random like some so after some investigation went with a Sony CDX-GT930Ui which is one of these.....

Only had it since Wednesday but initial impressions are very good and sound quality is superb. Just waiting on glovebox liner and will then remove changer and have a full size glovebox again......yay!!

On a slightly different note on my way into work this AM came across a suit in an Astra VXR who thought he was the man.......................he genuinely looked like he was about to cry when he realised he wasn't!!! Aha ha ha ha ha ha ha

Don't underestermate the spanish shoebox!

Dont you just love it when that happens

Done the same thing to a guy in a CTR on the way to footy last night

TBH, VXR's are one of my favourite meals!

New Addition to the VAG Family

Well as some of you may know I stopped using my LCR as a daily drive due to putting an excessive amount of miles in a short time and had resorted to using my wifes delightful escort, complete with pink vinyl flowers down the side, to troop to and from work. Sadly though the escort has finally decided it it time to meet its maker and this is what we have just purchased as a replacement...............

Its a MK3 P reg (1996) VW Golf GTI 2.0 8v, Full VW service history, Fresh respray due to someone keying it, VR6 Leather Interior, 17 inch RS4 alloys, CD changer..........

Pick it up tomorrow and I'm....................

 

[probee]

Hehe, you lucky bugger, that looks very nice mate.

See you in a minute
