omeydz's Golf MK6 TSI - GTI/R20 Hybrid *DSG converted*
omeydz:
Update -
So I've been busy-ish.
- RS4 wingbacks are now in and wired up ( my god do they hug you!! or I need to lose weight? :laugh: )
- Ed35 bumper fitted - had to replace a broken bumper guide which caused the old gti bumper to sag on one corner so thats now fitted perfectly
- Magnex R32 style 3" exhaust from downpipe back ( 2 small inline resonators for perfect balance of civilised and crazy with DSG farts :grin: )
- Recoloured needles to blue on my standard clocks which look as good if not better than OEM Golf R needles.
- Washed, clay bar and waxed up a treat!
Lot of work to do still but its either so hot you die in the heat, or so wet you get washed away :/ .. wish it would just settle down!
Was going to upgrade the turbo and twin cooling but I dont want to go down that road as yet as it is very much a daily driver and keep it reliable and a bit economical
Pics to follow

Sorry for lack of updates but having a bit of change in circumstances and my time with my MK6 is nearing an end with a very heavy heart. Lot of commuting to my new job means I need a diesel.
Obviously as you all know there is a serious treasure trove of parts and upgrades woth thousands gone into my car and is a lot to put back to standard (but dont have many of the standard parts left D'oh!!)
Its just ticked over 60k miles and I am 2nd owner. Anyone give me a guide price for selling as modded or return to standard or interest in parts?

But if you are interested in the car as is or valuation or a selection of modifications for your car let me know. This is for interest before I list anything.
I've carried out all the work myself and a lot of which is documented on here for your peace of mind. 8yrs+ experience in retrofitting and largely self taught (especially with the DSG conversion!) and all carried out to OEM specs and with help of ETKA/ELSA workshop manuals so its a tastefully modded car done by the book.
Thanks for looking!!

If i am going to do this, it will be done during the next winter, because I'm in participating in a small time attack championship. Until then i'll try to find the parts needed, talk to my mechanic and find the budget. Unfortunately, there are no DSG Cupras manufactured, so for example a Cupra steering wheel with DSG paddles cannot be found.
Thanks for the info, i belive u are the pioneer on this forum.
It is a megaproject, all i can say is WOW! :drinking:

One year overdue but I'm doing it. Sick of high rpm slow shifting. :D
I've finished gathering all the parts needed. :happy2:
