Ad's MK5 Tornado Red Gti
« on: September 14, 2013, 12:12:49 am »
Hi all think it's about time I made one of these  :P been on here a few month's now, the car's changed alot since being on this forum but it's a slow progress  :sad1:

This is the car when I first got it, standard apart from the wheel colour  :stupid:



First mod was tinting the fogs







Then I changed the wheel colour as I hated the red stripe, Also added a set of pressed plates & wind deflectors  :P



I left the car for a few weeks but the ride height was bugging me so I purchased a set of Eibach springs



Had a nightmare fitting them I'm a mechanic so I have access to the ramps, tools etc but the problem was the top mounts the bolt's just started spinning & I couldent hold the bottom of the bolt because the spring was in the way  :mad: I got it sorted in the end though

Also had a go with the body work mopped the whole car & then applied some hd wax :)





Next mod was the autotech induction kit I liked the sound but It did make some weird noises on boost, The same day I also replaced the diverter valve with rev G



Few random pics after Jap Fest





I then had a stage 2 remap by John at DNA Tuning I would highly recommend John, He does all the base maps for alot of tuning companies including R-Tech. The car was fun for a while...

Next mod was the bbs ch reps








This is how is currently is I have just fitted a k04 turbo still waiting for a few more bit's before I can get it mapped so no WOT  :indifferent:
