Title: Newbie from the northeast
Post by: jonesy on May 20, 2015, 08:09:28 am
hi everyone

Just bought a candy white mk5 gti 3 door and love it, I’m a bit of a spanner twister :grin: so this will probably not stay standard for long, Just sold my 06 wrx that was running 377bhp/373lbft and hope to hike up the power a bit on the gti  but have a lot to learn, hope you like it

Springs, Wheels and a bit more power to start,  Just changed the cam follower, Cars done 80k some coating left on but not much,  Everyone seems to do the dv which one would be the best to replace the standard one,  Just learning and reading through the forum some well put together cars on here and plenty of knowhow,
