Runs about 189bph at 1 bar boost so has load of potential to get to 280bhp with the new turbo the boost can get turned up to about 1.8 bar, hoping to run it at the gti festival at santa pod this summer. [/b]

Have a small button under each wing mirror, the doors pop open using a std vw central locking pump and relay. The pump applies a vacuume and pulls the catch, the door seal springs it open,

Never tried it on other cars but would'nt be hard.

No you get used to it, can be a pain on hills, as the weight of the door shuts it again!!! frown
