#1: Project sleeper Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Mon Feb 08, 2010 1:42 pm ---- Just start a new topic off...the car goes in this Saturday to Ecosse for the throttle bodies to be fitted.
So from the beginning...way back in 2004...
Suspension got fitted...
Eibach Pro Kit springs, Bilstein Sport dampers, Peugeot Sport 21mm torsion bars (gravel rally spec).
Then some GTi 180 front brakes
Then some Goodridge braided hoses...
Then the 22mm GTi 180 rear roll bar
Then a Richard Longman cylinder head
Then a Maniflow 4-2-1 manifold and 2.5" system with 200cell cat.
During the summer I fitted some Peugeot Sport GP A wishbones and various other new suspension parts.
So this weekend it's going to Ecosse for the throttle bodies to be fitted which means I've had to do some shopping to prepare for the job.
Jenvey inlet manifold
Then an ACT products/ Jenvey/ Longman carbon airbox.
I also bought a new water pump, rocker cover gaskets, hydraulic lifters and a GTi 180 inlet manifold gasket. A new clutch has been fitted too.
It's also had a new dipstick fitted (Recommended for any older style 138 GTi)
In the last few weeks it's also had some new front discs and pads.
It all looks completely standard.

#12: Re: Project sleeper Author: =ZiAn=, Location: SloveniaPosted: Mon Feb 08, 2010 3:09 pm ---- Very very nice, I see you've been spending quite some money as those are some of the best if not the best parts for modification (eibach, bilstein jenvey, etc.) . Will you be changing the cams as well? If so, which ones will you use? Also what ECU will you install?
#13: Re: Project sleeper Author: Jamie, Location: Ring y0Posted: Mon Feb 08, 2010 3:11 pm ---- Ecosse seem to like Omex/Emerald iirc
#14: Re: Project sleeper Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Mon Feb 08, 2010 3:20 pm ---- Yes it's getting 42mm Jenveys, Piper Ultimate Road cams and Piper verniers fitted. Ecosse use Omex ECU's.
