That's an awesome pic, I wish I was that good with my camera. It's probably coz I don't have enough inspiration to see a good picture opportunity for my car. Do you wanna take pics of my car for me? You know it makes sense :)

You will have to catchup with us mike while were at Stowe having a BBQ and taking loads of pics this is going to be a all day meet lots on convoying to various photoshoot locations. Like mike said all the guys are really friendly and as the VW,Seats,Skodas,Audis are practically all the same we can still chat forever about all of out modifications and what not, i will also be bringing VAG-COM along if anyone needs any assistance.

I'll definitely pop over if you're going to be doing some photoshoots as it may give me that inspiration and give me a chance to learn to use my camera a bit more, only got into photography a year or so and still learning.

Next year when i have uprated my internals and got some massive brakes and done some finishing touches i will be going big turbo and hopeing for somewhere around the 350BHP mark.

Your more than welcome, i dont really know where i get my inspration from it just comes to me, i got to admit having a good camera does help a lot, i bought a Canon Eos 350D about 4 months ago and read the advanced instruction manual and keep playing with settings to get amazing shots.

What have i gone and done now sorry mate im sure this psot is ment to be about your big turbo conversion not my Golf and the meet on Saturday lol.
thanks for the comments, but as you so rightly said when your getting 15MPG
that big smirk on my face slightly diteriorates lol but who cares thats all part of the fun :D and also the Mods dont come cheap lucky that Paul (older brother) is a mechanic and we have done most of the work ourselfs saving at least £1,500 on laybor alone.
brakes will be coming soon after my 4 new tires and my 2 week session in Ibiza lol.

thanks for the comments, a lot of time, money & hard work have gone into my pride & joy and it looks like its all paying off now.
but as you said if only conversions were cheap, its not like im going to be able to start a group buy up for one either lol.

not a bad idea lol

so Mike what the date shes going back into Jabba to be tweaked? im eager to see how much quicker your car will be, hopefully will get my brakes soon and be able to hand my setup over to you.
on that matter my brake pads are really low just got the warning light up today, if you buy me some redstuff pads for them you can have the setup including the new pads for free, sound like a good deal?

That first pic of your car from the back Mikey its stance is rockard.
Youve done pretty much everything exactly as i am wanting to do when i finally get all my accidents (none of which were even my fault) off my insurance and it goes down to a less jawdropping level except im looking at 312mm brakes too. I was gonna take the "if it breaks upgrade it" route rather than slinging it all on at once, that way the gf is less likely to notice!

I may also wait until my full warranty runs out:rolleyes:

If you dont mind me asking im guessing the full upgrade was about 5 grand mark?

Both you brothers cars and pics are awesome, id love to get the big power and the vision for the good pics
