The flexable joint is still attached, but the flexi pipe has been replaced with a slightly bent straight pipe.
I'll get a pic next time I have her on the ramp.

Was down at my mates the last fvew days helping out with his GTI Turbo build, and we knocked up a K&N induction 'kit' from some scraps

Cool, how's the progress on the Turbo?

Du have a feed for the cone?

Not yet, I broke the VW feed when I tried to remove it, but I will take a feed from the stock location to the airbox, was thinking about sealing the box to direct as much as possible.

Picked up a sub enclosure I bought to go in the Lupo today.
Popped it in the Polo's boot to take it home and it fit nicely so gonna make use of it until 2015 when the Lupo is done lol
Needs a bit of work, the speaker ring needs to be further out, hopefully I can space it out enough to give me that little extra clearance for the stupid over sized basket, if not it'll have to be arse out again.

Dont take the p*** about the state of the floor, I sill need to build a false one yet.

Looking good mate, is that a 10"?

No mate, its a 12" Crystal CMP.

Really? Looks tiny, I like it,.

Its acually quiet a large sub, although its a 12" sub its actually closer to 13".
The magnet and basket is huge, really heavy sub.
Probably the best deep bass SQ sub around back in the day.
Never had a big following over here, but those of us who did buy one don't really want anything else.

The amp is a Rockford 801S, its a bit of a powerhouse, puts out 800wrms @ 4ohm.
I have a second 801S which I will run in stereo at 2ohm to power these RE XXX Mids, they'll get 400wrms each!

These are massive, the horn tweeter next to it is from a PA system speaker

Pretty impressive figures!

Following an 'issue' parking the Polo in front of the garage while painting some calipers I was left with quite a large amount of yellow overspray over every single panel!.

Well, three days plenty of clay and various coats of Polish and Wax the car is finally silver again!

280mm conversion within the next week, along with Coil-overs.
LED rear lamp conversion and get my refurbished BBS rims back on and its done!

Just in time for the Lupo to come out the paint shop lol

Tigz.
Back in love with the 6N2 GTI

Getting them collected tomorrow, thinking of putting them on the Polo for a bit.

I love LSs

Yeah I liek them alot too.
Decided they'd be better on the Polo, than gathering overspray on the Lupo lol

Do it


Get some 165/50s for them though!
