im building it back up on std turbo i want to do 2k on the new internals then it will be off to jabbasport for the turbo kit as it will have to be made as the turbo im having has not been fitted to a polo befor its bigger than the ihi kit

got the diff from my contact in the us hes ships as a gift so no import duty to pay cost me 420 quid but the exchange dropped a bit from when i payed for it i got 2 dollars to the pound :D

i can also confirm that the uprated clutch and singlemass flywheel fits

can sort some parts out if anyone is after anything

and just setting off, first gear is absolutely useless, even with the eagles they spin up with very little effort

standard diff cant tame those 223 horses and 277 ft/lb torques, haha, needs a proper diff, to show them who's boss
