need to get it dyno'd m8,Revo state around the 360 bhp mark
Friday morning..mot passed with no advisaries then insurance sorted for another year with Sky insurance,i did call round but none could match the price
Actually took a gamble on the weekend with the weather to have some other bits sorted/fitted to the car,thanks to Andrew,i bought the boldsport city light kit of him and thought id give it a go but wanted them running with the drls so there on all the time,as we know the wiring and bulbs are actually in the headlight ready but not actually wired up to work so with this yellow 'repair' wire i studied a few write ups and plugged it into number 10 on the headlight block then ran a wire under the headlight down to the drl which i was hoping to get to by taking the inner arch lining off and accessing from there but the washer bottle is in the way for access(drivers side) so a quick jack up and whipped the front bumper off instead lol
tapped into the green/blue power cable of the drl
popped led in and ignition on and on it comes:cheesy: really happy,passenger side was a bit easier but the same set up on both sides,no extra vcds to enable either :wink:

Next job...fitting the polar Fis module,fitted with the help from this write up
http://www.vwroc.com/forums/topic/3299-guide-how-to-install-polar-fis/
apart from the the wiper arms being a nightmare to get off,even watching youtube video's how to get them off lol we managed eventually lol,the wiper motor is fidely to remove also and had to remove a bracket to the side of it for easier accesss
ran the usb cable into the dash for updating etc in the future then into the little cubby hole
mind boggling the things this can do really and looked at a few forums for recommendations for what to measure/read off the parameters,got these on at the moment but have changed a few now
1 more write up to do haha :innocent:

Last job...rear carbon diffuser to put on,deffo a 2 man job,needed some bloody strength as its not as bendy as the original so hard to get it into position without 1 end popping out grrr,anyways took us about 3 hours with removing and putting the bumper back on,i know its a copy but with a bit of filing down round the edges its quite a good fit,its only the reflecters that look a bit lost in it lol
got some pics but hard to see properly,needs a sunny day to show it off more
original
not bad fitted really :)
thanks for looking
