My very first project car (small update)
« on: December 07, 2011, 01:16:30 pm »
Hi i will be updating with pics as soon as I get my car back (hopefully later today)

But to start this thread off i'll just give a bit of background info: My car started life as a standard MK5 Golf 2007 in black, it has highline computer but apart from that it is a basic model - I will try to find some pictures later but I'm sure everyone knows what a standard car looks like  :signLOL:

Its been in the garage for the last few days having a few bits that i've aquired fitted. I've managed to gather together: WALK, Forge twintercooler, KW1 coilovers, Whiteline ARBs, R32 bumper, R32 style exhaust and forge dump valve/blow off spacer, all parts I might add bought off forum members.  :happy2:

I've got a few other bits left to fit which include the Porker brake upgrade, forge twintake and some 18" wheels.

To be continued.....................

Yes mate, took a while but finally getting there, love the sound, I think they had to cut the exhaust to get it to fit as it was too large a bore (did you have a de-catted downpipe??) but it still sounds great, i'm in love with my car all over again  :signLOL:
