after a couple of hours hard engineering from my man waddy, we managed to get the exhaust all welded up last night and the custom r32 jobbie on ....






For the exhaust tip i have gone for a single 4" carbon slashcut which has the look of the ceramic miltek pipes which i was after  :wink: and the sound is just what i wanted, you can really hear the turbo through the exhaust and it still pops and coughs like a mofo  :happy2:






only adjustment i am going to make is so that the exhaust tip sticks out about half an inch more so you can see the carbonness a little better, would love to hear your comments as always good and bad !!

Looks kind of funny but i like it.  :happy2:  I love seeing people pushing the boundaries with a Mk 5.  :happy2:

Have you had a look how much the zorst is growing when it gets hot, i agree it needs to be a tad further out, but not by much. They can grow about 3 or 4 inches when hot.  :smiley:

joe: thought about doing the mk6 style with one of these at each side but wanted to get away from the twin exhaust design and have something different.

since i have owned my car for a year there have been another 3 white r32 reps pop up near me !!, so im trying to make it look a little different now  :wink:

tc: nope didnt realize it grew that much ! i had noticed some of the laquer starting to crack though so i will be sanding it down for a matt finish but ill be sure to have a check next time im out for an enthusiastic drive  :happy2:

30/11/09 Pretty bag one  :laugh:

well... the car has been in at plush for the last 10 days getting an air lift products MKV slam kit supplied and fitted.

i had previously bought a full "plug n play"  :scared:  kit from airbagit.com and tbh the quality of the set up was not the best ( looked like universal stuff modified for a non gti mk5 when i clearly stated the strut was gti size.

anyway i had fitted the compressor, run the lines and made a false floor etc. all the little bits and decided to let luke rip on the actual bags and for a notch on the chassis, at the moment it is around 1" off laying frame, soon to be changed once i get her back  :wink:

enjoy...

front bags.




chassis notch.




the finished product  :happy2:



just like to say thanks to luke for doing a great job  :happy2: oh and the pic whoring will start once ive got her back...
