Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • Ben's mk2 gti

    i know ben never goes on the internet so i thought i would make a thread dedicated to his mad mk2 gti!

    It has a genuine zender body kit and wheels.

    It was a genuine MK2 Gti UK golf that was tuned by Turbo Technics and has has a garret T50 turbo on it running 7psi...still through the k-jet 1.8 lt motor. This was a production mod from the factory. It came straight off the vw production line to then go and have it turboed and tuned.


    here you go...






    hope you enjoyed i can get some of the engine bay shots when i see him next.

    Nice one, another 3 Door, we need to do a count up on how many are in Aus.

    I'd be interested to see what the engine looks like, a G60 is a factory VW Supercharger, i guess it has a small turbo technics turbo on it, would be good to see though .........

        Nice, the full Zender treatment actually doesn't look too bad.

          It's not quite the full treatment...



          It's missing the...unique...front grille design...

          Reminds me of my car when I got it (just a lot cleaner than mine was!!!)

          Cheers!!!

            Haha yes of course, I forgot the *ahem* interesting grille

            Yeah definitely much better without it.

                Firstly why do we never see this car around or at meets???


                Secondly TT did turbo kits for kjet cars, has nothing at all to do with G60's.

                    This is a great looking car. Any chance of getting a engine photo of the turbo setup?
