Nialls supercharged GTi6 - project tidy up

[Niall]

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.

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

What oil you planning on using?

Shell Helix Ultra

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

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!
