Bolted a Rotrex supercharger to it! It's a long story which involves me getting very annoyed with the VF charger leaking oil after waiting 2 months for a belt, fellow member D11PS being a good salesm

Been a bit quiet lately, so thought I'd change that and then this happened!

Found out a joiner hose from the maf to the elbow has split, crappy rubber. 2 silicone joiners from ASH ordered to get rid of the 2 rubber POS hoses, in the mean time being my only car ive had to try and seal it back up til the new ones arrive.

Well...some inconsiderate 'person' has tried to steal my front crystal indicator units and whilst doing so, has broken the wires to the back of the bulb holder, so close that I can't strip the wires back and put a connector in to re-connect them! As they are after market items, the genuine VW bulb holders do not fit and so I have had to buy a new set of light units of which I have fitted today...We are back on the road again... I hope all is well with you all and enjoying your VR's! Get polishing, Ultimate Dubs is just around the corner, fingers crossed for some nice weather for the drive up!
