hi....Another little update well first of all I decided I needed a new intake...and their are lots to choose from..as everybody is well aware I was looking at around the £300 mark. When I came across the Ramair kit. I know a few people on the forum already have this kit and at a bargain price of £155 why not so this arrived a few days ago.....

all fitted ... Well impressed with the build quality for such a low cost system.....

After fitting the kit was fitted.. I was toying with the idea of cutting the engine cover just like a lot of people have. But gave up because when I brought the car the previous owner had cracked the cover..so i might get a tt rs one I believe that fits..so decided to remove the oil cap neck so it sits flush a lot better I think

also the bonnet lining was hanging down in places so got rid of that too...looks a lot cleaner now...

and last of all..Open Fog light gillies much better and a very good fit They should have come like this from the factory.....

Looking good Deano! Some great mods already. I have just ordered some new fog grills myself. Whats next?
Deano45:
Well Jayha.. just like you may have I have a long list..but I'm not going to rush this one..I do tend to rush building up cars and then get bored of them and end up selling..first thing first
New wheels .......in the shape of something bbs/maybe reps
suspension ........Eiback sportline springs/ no coil-overs this time round
New Exhurst ....power valve exhaust/liking that one over millteck system.
And I guess a few bits and bobs along the way...but thats the big stuff...
Deano45:
Hi another little update...headlights were looking very yellow so thought as a cheap fix for now replace the bulbs..the headlights themselves are OK. I guess for how old they are but will be upgrading them later...

So decide to replace the spark plugs with BKR7EIX so at the same time decided to replace the coil packs not that theirs anything wrong with mine but as my car as 119k on the clock some new ones were in order..will keep old ones as spares i guess.
