[ljpacey]

hi people i thorough its about time i put my car on here been working on it for 6 months now so this is my project so far, i have dyslexia so bear with me i am a realy bad at spelling but i try, i am going for the k04 turbo conversion, and i no enuff about cars to make me dangerous lol just kidding but i like to be diffant with things mods and stuff, so hope you like my readers ride , heres my car wen i frist got her and its almost standerd i put a air filler on strate away lol,

i will update this as i go cose i got loads of photos of mods and stuff

then she got loward 30mm with eibach springs only springs goting to get coilovers later, i think the standerd fr wheels are boreing so on went the team dynamics pro race 1.2 in 17" i think i made the car the wheels are very lightweight i did feel i little bit of a diffance but not much and with a debag so no one nos what its is , put some seat mud flaps on as well , heres some pics

so after that i got bored so i took bumper off to see how i can get a fmic in there!

so out came the spot lights to get cold air to the smic

on went the seat sport brace

smalist intercooler in the world

the bumber can take it off in 5 mins nar lol

 

[ljpacey]

then i wanted a better cold air feed to the fillter and the only way realy was moveing the battary to boot so we set about doing this task lol
so battary came out!!

after a hard days work and meny tempers lost we did it then i messed up the cold air feed

 

[ljpacey]

now with battary in boot all i need to do is make a heat sheld and mod the cone fillter so i went and bort some silicone hose a 90 bend and made a better inlet,
with the sai and the n249 bypass removed as well, heres some pics

i think its look swell

then put boost gauge in

then got my milltek exhaust de res went i first got this i had a boost spike it went to 16psi by the way this car is not mapped :S

as you can see the exhaust is on a slant but i got this fixed in no time

 

[ljpacey]

i also was goin to buy the sports cat and down pipe from milltek but thay are way over priced so i went to exhaust uk insted down pipe decat 2,5" just over £200 i could not complane sound awesome on full boost now!

nice buddy

may be a stupid question but wouldn't it have been better if you were removing the battery (and I thought the whole point of this was, to move the air filter as far away as possible from the engine) would have been to get a straight and then 45 degree silicon piece, to feed the air filter closer to the wing/front bumper instead of curving it towards the engine?
