Thanks a million Freddy.

Seems like a lot of effort, any way I can get away without doing it with a Gt2871r turbo??.

I don't think so mate

From my understanding the dv is located on the K03

Unless your new GT has the same housing built into it then you'll need to move it :happy2:

Thanks again man.

Sorry if these are stupid questions....

I have a Forge Twintake, do I need the custom Maf housing??.

Has anyone a how to on the extended wiring loom??.

It's a Forge DV I have does this make any difference??.

Depends if your Forge twintake is an early version, so it's either K03 or K04 version.
The wiring loom is just an extension of 2 wires  :smiley:
Forge DV fitted in front of the engine will make it easier to fit the boost tubes to the intake manifold  :happy2:

Over the top mod list ;o)

Kicking my heels after the GP Qualifying so thought I would catch up on some build threads. So glad I did as this is a fantastic effort.. Bravo DONALM  :congrats:

Just love/loved the Compomotives  :drool: along with some other great touches (Pole Postions, LED lights etc) and not forgetting the GT28 of course  :evilgrin:..

Well and truly subscribed  :happy2:
