  • Car arrived at the exhaust shop



    Car at the lift



    Started installing the PTE cooler





    Looks nice and tucked in





    Connecting pipes like a puzzle









    Connections



    Looking good




    Then some exhaust work



    V-Band connection



    Yeap, that is legal - or not



    Sneak pic of intake fabrication



    Then some close-ups of the exhaust parts







    Let's add some protection







    Not much left to do now







    More to come



    Cheers

          • So it seems, after so much time, i can finally find free time to show you some updates of my daily project. Really sucks that there is so much limited free time from work, to be honest, but oh well.

            A quick snap of the .:R pedals





            A random shot of the bay



            And then, came this.



            Something new I wanted to test for quite some time now





            It is a GTX3076 from Garrett. Nothing you havent seen before, but something I wanted to test on my daily.







            Old 4in filter from Audi was looking tired





            So in came the new one





            Then fabricated some v-band gaskets and some oil return ones as well







            Then Tom drilled a hole, and threaded it, in the compressor housing for boost signal





            What is more, this turbo also had water cooling compared to the PTE, so lines had to be made as well





            Almost ready for installation



            So let's get this



            And go under



            After everything was in place, the downpipes were pretty similar, of the gtx and pte, so i decided to drive the car to the exhaust shop, since i hardly had any exhaust leak to be honest.



            Ready to go



            While at it, i also added a second muffler to reduce some low rpm drone



            Lousy iphone pics, but you get the idea









            Then it was testing time And boy did I like it . . .

            More to come guys

            Cheers

            • Then it was time to do some work in the interior



              You can see some parts on the center console were already off



              And there was more to come



              Out came this



              And there was something else too, hiding under the dash here, that I always wanted to remove anyways

              Aha there it is, bye bye AirBag



              Out came what was left of my center console





              Reminds me of Audi days



              Burst mode on my Defi's







              Oh well more work to do

              Let's take this side apart as well



              And done



              And then made it somewhat better in order to drive it everyday



              Even made a bracket for the light switch with zipties- lol



              Cheers

                • Had a nice garage session



                  Tom was playing with his stuff



                  While I was playing with mine





                  Also ordered these, like I had in the past



                  Some of these to freshen up my 100mm (4in) turbo intake



                  And also some of these to keep in stock



                  More to come



                  Cheers

                        • Looking really good. I actually really like the boost gauge location. Cool that it's preferrated as well to allow cool/warm air through. Nice touch refurbing the dash as well. Everything looks top notch.

                              • So installed some things here and there. Hardly good pics to show you, but nevertheless, pics.

                                So, this little treat from IE







                                These from 034 Motorsports



                                Some 4' hoses



                                and some of these, i found in my latest trip to Berlin, and I lost no time grabbing them



                                Received a rather big box today from Germany



                                Aha



                                Yeap, golf mkv dashboard



                                Only defect was this





                                That my trim shop can so easily fix before trimming it in alcantara

                                Great quality







                                I love my roof-compartment solutions for storage - LoL



                                Cheers, more to come my friends
