DannyParanoid Posted October 7, 2013 Report Share Posted October 7, 2013 Before I start, this isn't going to be another one of these 'I have £500 where can I get this done' kinda threads, I've thought about this a lot on and off for the past year and I think I'm going to go for it over the next yearso basically this is my list of things so far:Engine (thinking AUQ due to DBW throttle)Gearbox (think I need an o2j)Pedalbox (for hydraulic clutch, lupo TDI/GTI?)DriveshaftsMountsLoomFMICBoost pipesExhaustShallow Sump (eventually)Brakes (sport rear beam and the G60 upgrade)Cambelt and water pump (may as well do them while engine's out)ECU de-immobilisedI guess there's probably loads I'm missing, I'm fairly handy with a welder, and I have a mate who is VERY handy at fabricating things so if there's anything that needs doing it can be doneI know it will take a while, I'm not expecting in and out in a week, just wondering what else I'll need, rough time frame etcthanks guys!Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DannyParanoid Posted October 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 8, 2013 also does the battery 100% have to be moved to the boot? I dont have a lot of space in the boot as it is, just while I think about it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ONS Performance Posted October 8, 2013 Report Share Posted October 8, 2013 No the battery can stay in the standard place and looks amazing if you leave the engine cover on as well (factory look)For the intercooler use the wing mount and all you will need is 2 x 45 deg silicone hoses I stock them as well and the coupler to go in-between. How ever i have some 1 piece silicon hoses being made and can come in any colour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DannyParanoid Posted October 9, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 9, 2013 Can i use the standard intercooler? Or buy an uprated one to fit a standard car and use that? Also will i need much more from my list? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ONS Performance Posted October 11, 2013 Report Share Posted October 11, 2013 the standard one mate also it has a temp sensor on it witch measures the air temp and adjusts fuelling to suit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
