| Might do a few simple mods and maybe a remap to remove the flat spot i've got but that will be about all. The golf is supposed to be my sensible car. I must admit i liked the look of the turbo conversions @ inters at the weekend though! | | | |

| Welcome to the forum guys.
Pettsy, nice looking motor there, and a nice plate too... did that come with the car?
Hmm, mods... we all say we won't, but eventually we will, especially after talking to people on here!
