[therealtimmsy]

Hi Guys just Thought id share this with you , loads more coming over the next week or so

Standard with my dads Vxr
about 1 week into ownership


Interior Trim Painted Black with Pioneer HU



Debadged And Polished



Before and After The Stage 1 Revo - Look at That Power Delivery Across The Range!! Very impressed. Did 2 0-60 test runs today and got 5.9 seconds both times, so plus speedo Error looking at around 6.1-6.2 seconds to 60 Not bad for a 1.4!



Carbon Wrapped The Front Grill Using 3M Di-noc - very good stuff, impressed by the results but managed to get another centre grill off ebay for £17 so going to take that to a body shop and get it properly carbon fibre wrapped



AAAAnd Fitted Adds a real good look i think



Will be more updates this week as i fit my Rims, Can also Post pictures of the lights as i changed all of those to LED as well as side and number plate, Springs next week, Hopefully forge blow off valve and rear 20mm spacers the following week, and other stuff in the pipeline:

TTRS Big Brake Upgrade
Either S3 Intercooler or Forge Twintercooler

Will Post How To's on all as well

Thanks for your time guys, Comments appreciated

Looking very good!

What wheels have you gone for?

If you change your mind on the quad exhaust I have a custom 1.4 exhaust for sale.

Thanks!

BBs CR-5 18" didnt want to go any bigger on the wheels as it costs more in rubber, and i think 18 is enough

and i dont think ill change my mind the Quad just completes it for me.....

My tuned 1.4 ran 5.67 to 60 at gti international a couple of years back so it is possible. The progressive way the 1.4 puts its power down makes it particularly good for 0-60 times (gets obliterated then by more powerful 2.0) - the 2.0 struggles to get it's power down as cleanly so suffers 0-60.

On RL ? I've given you exact 0-100 times.

I've raced many times with tuned 1.4 TSI 230BHP and it wasn't as quick as my stock 2.0.

It was whatever timing equipment the drag strip used. Also mine was a 0-60 rather than 0-62 that the 0-100 kmh would equate to.

[therealtimmsy]

Well just to settle the argument, at revo, the engineer placed my map over a stock 2.0 tsi, and i had the same BHP and More torque, (think it was about 10-15 more lb ft)
So, its lighter, more torque, and the delivery is impeccable. anything over 70 the 2.0 would obviously beat me, but meh! lol i get better MPG anyway! i reckon theyd be neck and neck through to 70-80 then the 2.0 would pull away, although saying that a type r couldn't get away from me through to 100!

ALSO the Toyo T1 Sport tyres... Wow.

anyway- next update:

25mm Eibach lowering Spring





Think it looks so sweet!
