Lol . . Noticed, you featured one of the members from a club I run up manchester adam with the blue arosa that's how I came across your page.

Be nice to see what you will do with the 5 door.

Still awaiting my new bora steels. Not as flashy as the wires but I'll hope to get some good fitment out of them.
Oh where is this company that can boost up to 100bhp? Will it trash my warranty though? or is there no way of v-dub knowing?
is it an ecu massage that makes it a higher BHP please excuse my ignorance but i come from the Aircooled world so i would by doing bigger carbs :D Polish and ported heads, Bigger valves. you get the idea :D I like the idea of being abit quicker with hopefully abit more torque lower down, As i feel for a 1.4 it don't give what i thought a 1.4 would do. :roll: Maybe should of got a GTI :lol:

Just under a grand would sort you.
I've got to say im very bored already of waiting for my 5 door. And to top things off the guy selling the 16's is pissing me about so much i dont think ill ever get hold of the wheels. which means the 15's may need to get some new rubber.

Sad times.
Have you tried your local scrap yards! Mine are fill of steels around here, worth a shot mate
