CasperGTI Posted October 30, 2010 Report Share Posted October 30, 2010 Power looks promising mitch, Will be good to see how much extra it makes when set up completely. Its good to be able to compare it to a standard GTi engine, you can see where the cam makes its power, same power as a gti up to 4200 rpm or there abouts then the gti starts to decrease and your cam makes its presence felt. Strong power curve up to the end! Will be cool to see what it makes at 8k! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gib_ Posted November 9, 2010 Report Share Posted November 9, 2010 the engine mounts your running, is it the same one as on a polo/seat where the engine mounts to the subframe at the back on the engine? Been looking into a semi smooth bay.... Don't want to og the whole say as its just a **** load of work.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heartagram Posted November 12, 2010 Report Share Posted November 12, 2010 Got 17mm spacers if you still need them. Well Leon has them on his Cabby but they are Mickys and he said I can take them back of Leon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
