Mk5 Golf Gti with extras

[Sprati31]

Hello all just thought I would start a thread for my latest golf,


Also got a jetta sport 140 in black

And ideas on mods? only put a pipercross panel filter on so far.........

Any ideas or views on a re-map got full stainless and the filter on so far is it worth puttin a forge dv on?

[Sprati31]

Quick update a few little jobs done new rev g diverter old one was split and forge bov and new silver headlights switch next on the list is a re map and possibly an evoms V flow and a new cam follower then who knows wot!

Nice colour. Why make a GTI into an R32 rep tho? IMO a GTI with xenons is a better looking car from the front due to grilles etc.. Back end I can understand

[torque777]

Like that

sent using my own fingers

Take the r32 badge off!

[Sprati31]

I bought the car like it and for a good price as I wanted the r32 rear end and colour coded side skirts but I am going too change the front end over and take the badges off when I have more money as I have 2 little boys and money is quite tight at present it's an on going project no one buys a perfect car everyone likes too put there own stamp on things, and does everyone say the same things about diesels with gti conversions??

Thing it looks good apart from the r32 badges..Its your car and you like it that all that matters.If we all had the same taste life would be boring

Nice clean car

[Sprati31]

Just a few update pics and last but not least havin poke around wonder if the exhaust was any good and with a stroke of luck!!

[Andy]

Ooh nice

[Sprati31]

Not updated this in quiet a while just been enjoying driving it but the time has come for more power I feel and plans are too fit a cobra de cat, evoms and possibly an S3 intercooler then R-tech remap is there anything else I should consider buying?

Looks really good, as said above I'd take the R32 badge off though and stick a GTI one (Coming from someone with a TDI dressed up with a GTI front and an R32 rear haha) I should hopefully pick up some GT Sport badges for mine this month though.

If you're looking at a remap I think Revo recommend an uprated air intake first, if you look in the classifieds on here I think you can usually find a second hand Forge twin intake or something similar for pretty reasonable money.  If you give this a read it should tell you what you'll need: http://www.revotechnik.com/type/16077/222/

Looks really nice , where did you get the front bumper from ? I'm after one but there like rocking horse poop to try and find

[Sprati31]

Thank you for the link I have had a good read and it's a very useful link too use to get a better idea of what is needed at each stage, the badges are long gone that shot is when I first picked it up I will put up some better shots after a good clean!!
I am considering selling the front bumper and puttin a gti one on instead now 

[Dave7692]

I like the R32 front end, I'm a massive fan of the chrome though, by the time mine is finished it'll have a fair few chrome touches across the car.  However if you really want to get a GTI front you might be lucky enough to pick up an OEM one in the right colour to keep the cost down.

That was a good stroke of luck when it comes to the Miltek exhaust, looks to me like all the mods that were done before you bought it had no expense spared which is usually a pretty good sign that the car has been well cared for.
