My GT220D Sport ** updated 23/6/09 **
« on: October 31, 2008, 12:01:09 am »
Well, i bought the car new, about 5 nearly 6 months ago.
I didn't waste any time in ripping it to bits, from :



To :



With in the first hour of owning it ! lol

Now running U.S. DRL's :



I don't care fro the chrome badges, so i painted the VW ones in satin black (plebty of coats) and deleted the front GT badge. I also deteled some of the rear badging, and retro fitted some red TDi badges.
I've also gone with a touch of euro, with yellow fogs and main beams too

Front :



I've added the auto boot too :



A very handy touch  :happy2:

Carbon mirror cases, along with blue heated mirror lenses :





Added the GTi front chin spoiler insert :



Got alittle bored after 700 miles or so with the power or lack of, so had a remap :



205bhp / 330ft.lbs

And now, i have just addded a DPF removal pipe :



had to have an extention added, but other than that, it;s a great fit. Spot on Miltek :



It'll be having a rolling road session as it stands, then next week my car will be living a Revo for the week. Having abit of development done ...... so this is where i'm at pretty much, watch this space for a new power figure and rolling road graph

My roof will be black, along with my bonnet, just waiting for the body wrap fromt he U.S. ...... it's being sent tomorrow
Springs and wheels next, then i'll leave it.
I use it for work, so can't go mad or propperly low, but it hasn't stopped me so far   :ashamed:
After only 5 and abit months i've clocked up 16500 miles  :surprised:  :driver: ...... but hey, i bought it to drive it, anddrive it i will ..........

Currently working on some code changing, i can to have the brake lights as a complete circle not just half. Nearly thier  :happy2:

I've added the auto boot too :

How did you do that?  8)

Change the protocol for the remote button to release in stead of unlock. Add 2 x 3/4 inch springs - and thats about it.

Thanks. The diesel thing was mainly as i work out of it and do a sh1t load of miles. But as with every carand van i have i just can't help myself lol

The econ went up when i flashed the Chipped UK fast road map onto the car, then went up again when i removed the DPF (slightly) but the DPF removal mainly has improved drivability, spool and it's not as breathless when revving now.

The revo results will be interesting - i'll keep people post results wise

The auto boot thing, sure, where are you in the country ??

The smoke thing, well, there really isn't that much at all on the current fast road map - if you've been pooteling about town then give it a shoefull you get a small puff of smoke, not to heavy though, other than that - very little if i'm honest.

looks  8) that

Thanks - i've been keeping my eyes open for your motor around notts. i come regular to nottingham, afew times a week.
