VR6 Supercharged and one other reacted to bennyk for a topic
Finally had some time recently to get a start on fitting the air ride onto the car, I managed to get a hardly used Airlift V2 digital set up with twin compressors at reasonable price, Started with swapping the shocks over, I made an executive decision to run all of the airline's out to the shocks under the rear seat, not sure if that's the best idea but I suppose I'll soon find out if it's not![emoji79] Then got it all plumbed in to make sure it all works; It did![emoji51][emoji41] That was it for last weekend, got the tank painted in the week; Decided to hide as much of it as possibl2 points -

Had some time today to sort the MAF wiring out. Not the best of starts as the soldering iron packed up do had borrow one off neighbour. Anyway, soldered, heat wrapped and and cloth taped up the loom ready for charger installation. Another job off the list. Next up is to measure my belt length, but like my tools my ball of string has gone missing too so couldn't do that today. Still need fit fuel pump next weekend....2 points

Thanks for the tip dude! Its a golf but i will still be careful with the controls. Defiantly will be a DIY job as i have the time and space thanks man1 point -
Do a bit of research for your application too.... these fallacies you hear about "cast pistons rattle less than forged" is nonsense so make sure you choose wisely. Many aftermarket one's will be 4032 alloy but some will be 2618 which give more rattle due to thermal expansion/physical properties differences, in fact I've read some reports that show although 4032 is somewhat less tough and has less overall thermal resilience it handle's the sustained thermal stresses akin to engine cycle loads better than 2618. I would prefer any bore n hones to be well versed in these things in terms of s1 point

VRTonline.co.uk They are in Slough, so not too far from you. Ex VW Master Techs who do anything from MOT/Servicing to full on Mapping/charging of R8's! Both the owners Ryan & John run modded VR's as dailys too Simon.1 point
