Best way Chris. Try it first and see how you get on. May sound different again with forced induction. But they are a good free flowing manifold. At leat you know you'all get good money for it, if you decide to sell it on!

Been a little busy over the past few months, but it all came together on the 8th October. Firstly, I bought a brand New Lotus Europa Z20 LER engine and a new VXR turbo, along with a rough Turbo cabby donor car for the management and gearbox. But as you can see I ended up pretty much replacing...

I dont think the tullet manifolds sound too bd Chris. Sounded worse with the standard down pipe, but with the 2.5" piper down pipe, it sounded much better. I for sure wouldn't get rid of it.

Well she is back! Very pleased with the end result.

Here's a little update, and we are a couple of days away form having her home!

It has been a while since I last updated this. The decision was taken to paint the rest of the car, and every single piece of trim! Here is how we are with her now! [/URL Also had the se-belts re-webbed and re-coiled in red to match the leather. Hopefully she'll be back home in a weeks time!

Fresh out of the oven. Not yet polished. Had to try the indicator surround! Really pleased with how it looks against the red! The panels are being polished tomorrow, then the re-build will start early next week.

Thanks Matt, its coming along! Today's update - In Primer ready for paint, bumpers still need to be primed. Plastic bits ready for primer. Irmscher Lip Spoiler under armed guard! The colour should be going on tomorrow, so more to follow!

Thanks! I won't be doing anything on her this year. Too many things on the cards at home etc. But if all goes to plan, 2017 is when I will finally get my arse in gear and start on the engine. What I'll do is not clear yet but it will get some serious attention!

I been following this build for years. Really impressed! I prefer it now than when it was a 2.0 T going flat out down the autobahn heading to irmscher back in 2008!

It's been a while since I was last on. Probably because I haven't seen my car since last August as she has been tucked away for the winter. But talk about a rude awakening! She is currently in the bodyshop having a little bit of perfecting doing. So I'll let the pics tell the story...

A few pics of the new car! Well from the configurator anyway! This is how the new car should look when it's built and delivered in May when the Audi lease ends! All New 2015 VW Passat GT 2.0 TDi 190 DSG Dual Clutch Automatic Night Blue St Tropez Nappa Leather Interior 19" Verona Alloy Wheels...

Yes, I just used mat black. Satin black was too bright, if that makes sense.

Hi Carl, in theory yes, and I did consider this route. But the grill you have doesn't have a badge mounting plinth, so it would just look stuck on. I wanted it to look factory.

If you have an Astra G grill, then either the pre-facelift Insignia tailgate badge or Zafira Tourer tailgate badge is the perfect size.

I fancied a little change before Christmas, so decided to order a set of honeycomb GSi grills and a new OPC grill and then convert it to Vauxhall. So I started chopping up a brand new OPC grill to remove all evidence of it being Opel. Also, making the badge mounting point flat rather than...

My friend had a Zafira VXR running about 310bhp, and he swapped it for a VXR8, and the VXR8 is actually better on fuel!

Thats the idea Dave, keep it within the original theme but a little different!

As the car has only been used for about 1/2 an hour since Billing in July. So figured I need to get back in to it. So the original Linea Rossa Steering wheel is now with it's new owner, which you all know looked like this :- Bought this off eBay for £20 and gave it to Steve at Classic Car...

Thats a nice compliment! Thanks! I have a new item to fit now, so will put up a pic in the morning!
