Well it looks as if it isn't going to sell, so it's onwards with the plans...
What do you guys think I should do to the Autech?
Coilovers
Uprated discs and pads
Bucket seats, stripped out
I'm not sure about doing anymore to the engine as it costs so much to get anymore from N/A, maybe a DET?
There's the option of a 2.5" exhaust system and mapping, but that alone will cost maybe £1000 for all the proper gear and I might see 10bhp, so really for that sort of money it might be worth getting a Gti-R engine with the following bits.
4 branch
ball-bearing T28 tubby
FMIC
3" exhaust system
Fuel pump
That's going to be a good 250bhp, which makes me think about the gearbox. I have an LSD, but if my box snuffed it would I be able to tranfer the LSD into the new box?
All things to think about with it.
I'd like to turn it into an Autech Turbo. Use the head, cams, valves from my highport, then use Low comp Gti-R bottom end, Gti-R manifold etc and electrics as then I'd also have the cams for a bit more hooof! lol
If that's possible?
