Fizz's RED DEVIL '99 MK4 GTi

[Fizz]

Add a stubby antenna to the list of mods!

getting a Sharon stubby arial soon also need to buy an arial mast repair kit from ECS tuning as the rubber gasket surround on mine parished with the sun and came off so it looks abit incomplete at the moment and VW doesn't sell these darn things separately

As for the Stewart Warner Gauges I'm not entirely happy with them. Boost gauge's arm doesn't swing smoothly and often gets stuck and had oil leaking through the oil temp sensor and loss of oil pressure through the pressure sensor. The colour coding is spot on with the OEM lighting but the gauge isn't lit up evenly as i was led to believe. I'll be pulling them out shortly and replacing them with the smoked Autogauge boost, A/F ratio metre and a voltage metre. I've seen these gauges in the flesh and they well lit, easy 2 read and very smooth and accurate.

There is a cheaper way of getting the best looking aerial. Just cut it where it srarts to go thin!! I did that on my car and i love it!

Really?? Hmm neva thought of that. How's the Signal?? The Stubby OEM Sharon Aerials have awesome reception. Also do you have pics of this aerial mod of yours would love to see the end result

[Water Boy]

Fair call.

Last Dyno Run (Only Mods was the Cat removed from stock setup and K&N Panel filter)


Stock 2.25" exhaust removed


Replaced with 2.5" megan downpipe and piping

[schwartza3]

hey, i assume thats a US spec Megan downpipe?
Apparently there are clearance issues when fitting a DP made for LHD car onto a RHD car stated here: http://www.goapr.com.au/products/18trhd_downpipe.html
i believe this is due to location of the brake booster on RHD cars.

Anyway, i'm just thinking why a specific RHD DP if LHD DP can fit
Please clear this up once and for all

Cheers!

[Fizz]

There was i minor clearance issue. when first fitted the DP would touch the firewall/ cross member or something and cause a horid rattle when u would take off. I just took it back to my muffler guy and he readjusted for me and its been sweet since

Hope that helped

Finally Posted Up some Decent High-Res Pics that I've collected along the way.
