Lovely paz. Is it gonna be hissin' and dumpin' at the meet tonight. Like what u have planned so far (R32 kit and leather) They still on the cards?

nice lookin m8y!!!!!!!my m8s got the newer gti turbo with 18s thats a beast!!!!!same shape as urs like think it might be a 3 door though!!!!!!!!thats wat u need on that the 18" audi wheels they look sexy on watever u put them on!!!!passats,golfs,tts,rs6s!!!!!watever!!!!get them wheels!!!!they r gorgeous!!!!lol

What can i say best Engine VW ever produced, bucket loads of potential. The 20v T can be tuned up to 530bhp.
Let me know if you need any tuning advice its the same as mine and i have loads of spares!

lol, ok heres one...

Are the 2000 engines drive by wire??

Or on a throttle cable??

I have only just purchased my 2000 1.8 GTI turbo Mk4...



Now i allready have its dump valve..

I`m stuck between lowering it next or an exhaust???

Need help, what you all think??

Also i`m after the ever popular 3" Twin Round exhaust, but i cant find it anywhere, anyone help???

Its a Cable throttle, the later ones went to fly by wire, these are no good for big power due to the delay in the throttle motor.

Whats the engine code, AGU,AEB,AUM... Its stamped by the bottom left of the rocker cover (you may have to take the plastic cover off)on a metal tab sticking out.

As for exhausts Miltex do a twin round tail pipe, think its £329 from the cat or £389 inc sports cat.

I think you should definately lower it, as low as possible and get really wide wheels on a negative camber.

Paz verynice car that mate golfs have such a good history and you seem to have a good moddin head on ya so should be quick and lookin nice will have to work hard to keep your cruisewirral Title though. I would put on zorst on 1st cos its more bhp and from the golfs i have been in they ride well.

Woo great too see ya back into modding cars paz. Looks nice at the moment already but i'm sure you'll have it tons better soon.

Looks sweet mate!

I'd say keep it nice and smooth

Euro stylee

Hope this signals your return and you start to come back out again.

Bless, hibernating during the Winter lol only jokin matey

Keep the pics coming as you do more the the beast

v.nice. gotta go euro. 15'' split rims body colourin no spoilers. mmmm euro

Lol, fitted my dump valve today, looks and sounds sweet, only slight problem, on way back from manchester today, i suddenly lost boost, and power...

Gonna asses the damage tommorow, i`m gutted...

I had the great pleasure of driving this tonight, What a sweet car, drives ultimate...

You picked a great car Paz

Needs the power problem sorting out but all in all a great car to put your mark upon.....

Keep us posted on the loss of power issue

Right guys and gals...

The beast is back from its little illness...

The ECU had gone into spaz mode, had it re set, and we are back...

It was caused by a turbo leak, but its all sealed and re set, yipee...

Reading previous posts, this car has been upgraded to 200BHP?

oops then..

my manual must be wrong because thats what the book says...

we will see at USC...

Does anyone think this is a blag??

Click Me

The seller is a power seller and has a feedback of 99.4% so they must be doing somthing right for only £23 it wouldnt be a great loss. Personaly i would try it.

Its not a Blagg, however it is a Bleed valve in Discuise........

Its a very good quality one.

Increasing your boost without altering your fuelling can only lead to one end result.

But does it actually increase your boost??

Yes you FOOL.......

Not sure if that will work on the new VW motors.

Is the actuator phicically controlled by the inlet pressure?

The new VAG motors run an extra valve which the ECU uses to monitor boost pressure - as soon as it detects summut wrong (ie extra boost) the ECU takes over and limits the boost.

If your car has this, a bleed valve wont be an option.

Try somewhere like Revo - they specialise in the VAG turbo motors and ECU tuning

Im sure ive posted about this before for gadgets car - it'll be on the BB somewhere

Have been looking at getting a boost guage, but now i have found these and i`m a little undecided...

This will will fit on the centre of the steering column...



Where as this one, is taking up a din size storage compartment above my climate control and stereo ( Was gonna usee this for a fold out screen) but this is nice, wouldn`t know what gauges to put in though really...



What you think???

Boost Gauge deffo, but i would put i pop-up screen in there also instead of other gauges.

If you decide to put other gauges in there i would defo use a oil pressure, air/fuel ratio and possibly oil temperature as these are probably the most important to moniter your engines performance and condition.

Well this is the kind of thing i`m looking towards...



Nice colour coded rear valence from the 4motion, just bought one of these...

Just need the twin exhaust to finish off, and spioler....

Looks sweet man...

What you all think of it??

luks sweet m8. i like it. i think usc cud b even more fun 4 me, as r cars power figures r fairly simular cud b fun seein urs against my bm. shud b pretty close. i aint got a clue what power mines runnin. supposodly 205bhp but i cant trust that figure now. mines 8 secs standard so shudnt b 2 much innit. cant wait. r u goin defo 2 usc then.

yeah i`ll be goin deffo, hopefully be running more power by then too...

nooo. not 2 much power. i had a ago o the a3 1.8 turbo n it were quick. wud like to see how bm compares to it. lukkin 4arward 2 it

i love these cars, really want one myself, just cant really afford it at the min, still too pricey for me

Right guys and girls, as some of you may know i was selling the car, but i have not been able to find a decent replacement for the money...

I still have a power problem, need to remove atmoshperic dump valve and return it to a diverter valve, and replace the MAF sensor.

Have got a new Forge diverter valve on order need new boost hose and few other hose, hopefully gonna get samco ones, as for the MAF sensor will be getting one soon.

I have decide not to go down the road of body kits etc, just had too much hassle with the saxo.

Now i`m torn between alloys???

or £350 on a remap , which will produce 200 BHP approx???

What you think??

Remap it matey thought you already had 19"'s for it?

i did have a set of 19s but i sold them, made a quick £100 on them
