Hey guys,
Since it's so quiet in here, I thought I would stir the pot and let you guys know about my past and future modifications/plans for my GTI and get some feedback. As most of you know, I own a delightful jazz blue 4 door mk4 GTI. The current modifications are as follows:
Full Exhaust
GFB Stealth FX
Big list eh?
The exhaust is a 2.5' custom mandrel bent dump pipe to a super hi-flow cat and then 2.75' pipe from cat back. The whole system ends with duel 3' tips. And yes, you read correctly, there is no mufflers. I originally wanted no cat either, but Australian exhaust engineers arnt quite as adept as the people at 42 draft designs (who make full turbo back no-cat systems that dont throw codes) so I had to chuck it in. Either way...it sounds perfect.
Future plans:
GT25/30 Disco Potato Turbo
FMI w/ custom fabrication
Proper engine management system (not a chip)
Plus all the goodies neccessary when you do a turbo conversion...the list is massive.
My budget is around 15k at the moment, as soon as I find a competent workshop to work with in Queensland the mods will start. As far as body goes, I am going to have to get a custom front bar made up to fit the FMI in, as I dislike all the current aftermarket kits availible on the market. 18x8's will go on within a week or two, once I decide on a finish. As for interior/sound, the car already has an extensive eclipse system in it. 2 x 6' splits, 2 x 6 x 9's, 1 x 10 sub, 2 x 12 sub.
I think thats about it for now...I will keep you guys updated with all my mods!
Cheers,
Jake

. Pre-addiction of golfs I owned a very very large horsepower skyline...this thing will follow suit. I'm looking for the achieveable mark of 200fwkw on a day to day tune. I know I'm going to blow my budget...but I dont really mind, what else is there to spend money on at 19
