ITG maxogen and new cold air enclosure £350
Genuine BBS CH 19x8j on budget tyres and in need of a refurb £500
Ouch thats £3035 on upgrades
The set of BBS CH026 alloys are in the shed at the moment in need of a refurb and tyres. Not sure if I'll end up fitting these or selling them and keeping the Pescaras. Quite like it on the 18s actually.
Only things left that I really want / need is an intake of some kind. Preferably an ITG but i'll settle for a twintake. Would like some ED30 rear lights. And then the paintwork needs doing. Front end respray with rusty arches fixed, boot rust sorted and a few other bits tidied up. And if i see an Ed30 interior I'd like to swap the full leather for the half leather one day too but its last on the list of things to do TBH.
A couple of pics or the latest mods though...
Visit to R-Tech and Power graph showing before (motech map) and after (r-tech map) 234bhp@5599rpm and 281lbft@3131rpm
Before and after suspension ride height. My crude measurements make its 30mm drop
WALK in place
Rear 24mm Solid ARB on its hardest setting
The the MK6 wheel before the OSIR paddles
And with the OSIR paddles
And fitted
Annoyingly the Mk5 dsg paddge and the Mk6 dsg paddle are a different part as they plug into a different location so I had to strip the mk5 one down to get my OSIR paddles off it and fit to the mk6 bits rather than just swap the whole module over as I was hoping to do.
ITG (just bought this... these are the sellers photos)
I get both set up's so will decide which I prefer.
Thats all the little updates for now though.. a couple of shots freshly washed..
With thanks to APS and R-Tech
