My KO4 MK5 GTi

Lovely car mate, am I right in thinking this is the old PVW Project Car?!

i agree with you rex, i like to have the wheel fairly close with bent arms. im 6ft 2 so sometimes its hard to get nice and low in the car and remain comfortable - this is nice to sit in though!

I'm 6ft 1 and have the same problem. The problem I like the OEM steering too much. So I'm still confused and don't know what to do  .

im not sure there is a whole lot you can do then :lol:

no, i never owned jonny's old car - that was my dad... so ive driven that alot though, taken it over to amsterdam and club charleys. this will need more power to keep me entertained!

stunning car 

[stanton]

thanks guys 

got a couple of snaps with it sat in the car park today - i like the way it's sat with the stock splitter now - i just need to find a grille strip if anyone knows of one knocking about??







golf's have got bigger over the years but it's surprising sometimes how small a mk5 really is compared to other stuff out there!



i also fitted my forge splitter valve, sounds great and throttle response is awesome!



it's using the BSH boost tap for the vacuum feed.

looks very nice

loved your mk4

cnt believe this has still got standard brakes on though with all that power

[stanton]

brakes is something i'd like to address pretty soon but it's not too bad as long as you keep your head and dont get yourself into trouble!

im still on standard aswell running 364bhp and isnt honestly that bad . looking at the forge big brake kit as they are ment 2 be quite good and relativly cheap but as my car is in bits at the moment and im running out of money slowly i should probably stop looking at stuff 2 buy :(

Agree with that

Interesting looking motor mate 
Some cool mods done and planned.

Stealthy for sure

How does it deal with putting that much power down? I've driven a Focus RS MP350 and even that with its tricky LSD struggled with plenty of torque steer.


Cheers,

the wavetrac LSD takes care of that, it's one of my fave mods on the car. ive driven with lots of quaifes and other styles of ATB and none of them are even remotely as smooth as the wavetrac.

because of the wave profile, and that it allways has internal loading - youre never waiting for it to engage, it's seamless engagement and it feels oe. really compliments the rest of the car

Wasn't sure about the look at first but now I'm looking over it properly it looks like an absolute BEAST. So raw, bet it shifts too
