My Cupra K1 replacement-Golf R mk6
toosmiles:
A quick write up and a big thanks to Bruce and his brother Alfie for supplying and fitting my water methanol kit.Dropped me off in town about 9.30 and would call when finished etc
i decided to go for a progressive kit in the end(dv-30) which is more suitable for my needs and adjustable for any tuning in the future,also i had the solenoid upgrade and a second nozzle that they tapped into my throttle pipe with the other into my Aks tuning throttle plate.
only very fine modifications done for fitting these ports,the aks plate needed a part of the bracket above skimming down slighlty and the motor next to it,all leading to a nice clean install in the engine bay
next was mounting in the boot similar to Paul hulmes set up,pump in the small well where the usual safety equipment goes and the 4 quart tank again like pauls tie wrapped to the stiff carpet(not install into the body in case of any rust issues later arising)wiith the low level and lines on the inner to save the misses knocking it lol
overall done in super quick time as they both got on with the install and finished perfectly
its like driving at 0 degrees at night all the time now,main thing was to keep the temps down and clean the engine really but the little extra boost comes in handy
toosmiles:
Couple of random bits to tart up the interior with some gel stickers to go over the boring black buttons,then some titanium engine bay bolts/washers
toosmiles:
Also stuck the bit of fly eye sticker i had leftover onto my drl's to blend them in more
Lastly a good friend made me keep my carbon fins/flaps that i was gonna send back after trial fitting to my original diffuser so thought it was a nice day lets whip the bumper off to make it a bit easier to install and make sure of a near perfect fitting
before then installing
toosmiles:
