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,

  • A couple of pics...

    Black badge:



    New muffler and tips:







    Tips are 3in and the same style as stock, which is what I wanted. Fills the gap nicely without being over the top.

            • Also, on the tips, did they just cut the old ones off and weld the new ones on ? So it's a simple 30min job ?

              • When I put bigger tips on, they had to rotate the 2 initial sections coming off the exhaust as the pipes were too close for the larger (think 3") tips.

                Took the guy an hour.

                  • It looks like you can fit 2 x 4" tips, isnt it?

                    Comment


                    • you probably could.

                      Depends what you are after. I thought the stock ones looked a bit basic, really just wanted a tougher back end without it being overly obvious a change had been made.

                        • Found some cream car'd f**ker opened their door into mine.

                          Left a nice cream / white colouring on my door about 6 inches long.

                          Reminds me of the conversation between Vincent and Lance in Pulp Fiction: "Boy, I wish I could've caught him doing it. I'd have given anything to catch that a**hole doing it. It'd been worth him doing it just so I could've caught him doing it."

                                Hahahahaha...I wish...FK's excuse (I rang them direct in Austria last night)is that there isn't big enough of a market in Australia to justify paying the shipping costs to export to Australia, then they said to try ECS tuning because they are a FK distributor...I told them that they don't have the Polo in America, but they said give it a go...
                                Is there anyone in Europe that wants to get am a badgeless Front Grill for a Polo GTI?? I think that would be easier, since FK don't ship outside Europe direct...
