That manifold is a peice of art Plus I want one of those brake fluid caps! Been keeping my eyes about for one. Link to post Share on other sites
polovr6man 8 Posted July 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2013 Cheers lads appreciate the comments. You can't buy the reservoir caps mate I searched high and low. Every international Ebay you can think of, every german car suppliers they dont' make one ha. I ended up getting my mate to make it me on the laithe. I can put you in contact with him if you like, it cost me around £30 but well worth it IMOStill not got it Re-mapped yet, the T3 turbo flange is blowing so the lot needs to come back off, new gasket put on and then it can be re-mapped. Videos to follow lol.Few shots i took before Dubodyssey Saturday. Link to post Share on other sites
polovr6man 8 Posted October 12, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2013 PROGRESS: Oil change to 10w-60 fully synth........Still no Re-map though but has been up with RaceTech 2 weeks now so can't be far off, some pics i took the other day VR6Pete 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Im getting mixed reviews on wether you have to get an engineers report e.t.cSent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk now FreeNot much of a faff at all mate, here's a copy of the engineers report if you want to copy it. I went to an M.O.T station and they charged me £50 for this which i didn't think was too bad as it took about an hour of their time. Then i just took the log book, tax disc, mot and insurance up to local DVLA office and they sent it off for me. Link to post Share on other sites

Swivelonit 119 Posted October 13, 2013 Report Share Posted October 13, 2013 I bet the inspector took it for a test drive, that is what I would have done and probably not brought it back !! Looks great and probably sounds and goes great too. Link to post Share on other sites

chrisvr6t 19 Posted December 15, 2013 Report Share Posted December 15, 2013 What sort of prices are the fibreglass panels costing you? Link to post Share on other sites
polovr6man 8 Posted December 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 15, 2013 I made the bonnet and the tailgate myself mate. The doors were £800. The company had to make 4 moulds - front and back for both doors. They have the Audi handle conversion in them so are worth their weight In gold if you ask me.
