lol thanks Edward, nothing really on the car except the plates gives its age away as the bodywork and interior is really tidy except for the sp arches but now you mention it, I guess it could do with having private plates

Well have decided the project has come to an end so nothing else will be done to the pug except for repairing a recent kerb damage to 1 wheel and sorting out the drivers sidestrip, once these are sorted will be saving to upgrade to a 180 and once I have the funds the pug will be put back to near standard

I could mate but the money involved in the swap and getting everything right I could buy a very low milage mint condition 180 which will have the same power

You may need a little more to get the magic 200BHP my lovely. I still think the Cat Cams 804 profile holds the best chance now it has been tweaked a little

They do... but you only need to fit them if you are going over 250HP.... a supercharger would give you that on stage1 without internal mods

it may not be until after xmas Matt as I won't get alot for the gti and i'm in a job that don't pay well either but just seen some nice low milage 04 180's for just under 2.5k, all with low milage. Most of the bits that get taken off the gti will be put onto the 180 depending on the colour I choose to get
