That looks mint...! Top job!
Makes the engine bay look 100% better/tidier.
RE: Nialls supercharged GTi6 - Alive! (again) - Matt - 02-05-2014
Looks like a much better setup! Fingers crossed it works well that way

Not sure yet mate. Not in any rush to do so now. Probably after show season
RE: Nialls supercharged GTi6 - Alive! (again) - Connor - 02-05-2014
You taking this next weekend? Love to see it
RE: Nialls supercharged GTi6 - Alive! (again) - Niall - 02-05-2014
To pug run? Yes I am mate
RE: Nialls supercharged GTi6 - Alive! (again) - Connor - 02-05-2014
Of course, might have to ask for a cheeky passenger ride
RE: Nialls supercharged GTi6 - Alive! (again) - floz123 - 02-05-2014
If you can get it out mate
I meant a small black round thing!

No worries mate. It's not overly impressive seeing as it's only 190hp but it's does go well!
RE: Nialls supercharged GTi6 - Alive! (again) - Connor - 02-05-2014
Dat noise doh!

Wait until you hear the limiter :p although last time I hit that though, I spun a bearing lpl
RE: Nialls supercharged GTi6 - Alive! (again) - Connor - 02-05-2014
Lol try not to spin it this time then
speaking of which, we've got a ST in work at the moment that spun a shell or 5 
made me think of you xx
RE: Nialls supercharged GTi6 - Alive! (again) - Niall - 02-05-2014
Aww thanks mate xx
Servicing it tomorrow so will see of there is any metal in the oil that comes out lol
RE: Nialls supercharged GTi6 - Alive! (again) - C.A.R. - 03-05-2014
Get an air snorkel from a 1.4/1.6 TU 306 as it points directly where you have your filter and would work as a very good cold air feed for peanuts..and looks OEM.
Looking sound bud.
RE: Nialls supercharged GTi6 - Alive! (again) - lolsteve - 03-05-2014
What oil you planning on using?

Like that idea although may have more ninja plans up my sleeve for a cold air feed

Right update time! Well, not really,
Firstly, i went to pug run last weekend. If I'm honest, i was really nervous. the bearing spinning really did destroy my trust in the car. Wasn't bothered about if it broke down as i have RAC cover but more "Shit, I've spent all this money and destroyed it!"
Not to worry though, i did 300 miles and it was completely faultless...well except for blowing a boost pipe 1 or 5 times
Only thing was the monumental fuel cost...or so i thought at the time. I did 300 miles to a tank which i didn't think was overly bad seeing as its not fuelling right at all and at times, we weren't hanging about.Mark took a few nice photos as well
[attachment=16308]
Anyway, got the car back and realised how little time I've got left to fix this shit heap so I've made a brave move! At the moment, the car isn't driving right on boost as its now seeing double the pressure it was when it was mapped thanks to the new outlet plate. Also, I'm now seeing sensible fuel pressure. I wasn't happy about doing the shows and over 500 miles like this so I've booked it in for mapping again.....the day before FCS
So the thursday will consist of getting it on the rollers, getting it mapped (and hopefully making my target power this time round) and then driving it from Dartford to Chippenham to see the illusive other forum admin. If i make that, then i will be there saturday in a gti and have a look of relief on my face. If you see a shitty Kia on the stand and a rather grumpy Niall walking around, you know why!

That's not bad fuel economy to be fair.
Tom only gets 250 ish (some times much less) from a full tank

Yeah but how much does it cost to brim a 205 tank? Cant be as much as a 306!
RE: Nialls supercharged GTi6 - Alive! (again) - Paul_13 - 16-05-2014
50/55 L from memory could be wrong
RE: Nialls supercharged GTi6 - Alive! (again) - Niall - 16-05-2014
Ah ok same as the 306 then. I thought it would be less in all honesty!
Hopefully it will be a bit better when its remapped again

Your right. Who am i kidding. Worth it though! I don't drive this shit daily so its ok lol

Looks good nice job the alloy inlet on your super charger looks sweet
Nialls supercharged GTi6 - Alive! (again) - ArmzSC6 - 17-05-2014
My lynx low boost is as good as a standard 6 on fuel if your doing a long run. On Vpower I get 400miles to a tank on a motorway run with a good few flat out blats thrown in along the way
.Should be better once mapped properly.

Yep mine was the same on long run maybe 50 miles less a tank at the very worst.

So amongst other ninja plans today in-between call outs i got the Autsol out in a bid to start tidying my engine bay up

Also found some another pic that Mark took at Pugrun

RE: Nialls supercharged GTi6 - Alive! (again) - Niall - 25-05-2014
So the back of my car has always been a bit low for the 30mm drop on the front. Last year i scrubbed a lot on the way to the shows with my camping gear in the back and i have basically been sitting on the bump stops most of the time so in an effort to have a slightly more stable ride and not destroy another set of tyres, I've raised the back of the car to a more sensible level

Also discovered this
[attachment=16462]
How long its been like that i don't know but its ruined the splined end of the ARB. Just an excuse for a rebuilt rear axle i suppose!
RE: Nialls supercharged GTi6 - Alive! (again) - Paul_13 - 25-05-2014
I'd be tempted to route the air filter/pipe like you have with the boost pipe so it sits in front of the rad
I take it the bolt has sheared off in the arm?
RE: Nialls supercharged GTi6 - Alive! (again) - jammapic - 27-05-2014
Sensible ride height for the win!!!!
I love this car. One of my favourite projects on the forum!
