Cheers nodz and if you could have actually seen it in the flesh you wouldn't think it was coming back at all, let alone winning its first race out! As you say it is a top turnaround by KPM and looks really good aswell! Mine is down there just having a few tweaks done to it.

blimey where have u been!

Tom raced the car 3 weeks ago as one off entry for KPM/Milltek Sport practising for BTCC that followed weekend after. Ollie Jackson drives the AMD Golf now.

Stunning car you´ve built

I have a couple of questions for you if it's okay;)

Where did you route the line to the charcoal canister?

And do you have a guess on how long the A048's would last on a daily driver? I've got the AD08's, and i would like some more grip, so i'm either getting the A048 or the R888..

geordie56 · « **Reply #387 on:** August 31, 2012, 07:06:03 pm »

Hi, and thanks for the comments. The canister has just been disconnected and blanked off as not needed. As regards the AO48's if you plan on using them on the road as a daily driver then your insurance will be void, if you look at the insurance board there is a section on this. Performance wise though they are excellent, on par if not better than R888's and the wear rate is also better aswell. I wouldn't recommend them in the wet however. Hope this helps.

Well its been a while but had a lot on and a few bits to get tweaked with the car such as issues with deleting the XDS etc... along with other minor things. Fitted the meth kit with a custom tank courtesy of KPM lot more secure than a plastic tank with a horrible plastic bung slammed in the bottom, Especially for what im using the car for. Also had an APR pump fitted rather than internals that i had, new exhaust tips and a tweaked map thanks to Keith.
