Gibbos Eaton Charged MK3 VR6


Recommended Posts

Hey Everyone,

Thought it was about time I put up some pictures of my car. It's a late MK3 Golf VR6 that I bought off of Mikey (Jenks) almost 2 years ago. I've been using it as a run about but have recently fell in love with it, so thought I'd start slowly putting some money into it and make it quite special.

I've recently fitted new coilovers to it and slammed it on GTi alloys to give it more of a sleeper feel and added nice MK3 Recaro Interior :D

I got my Eaton charger from a Mercedes garage for an absolute bargain so have been collecting parts bit by bit, I have the charger, an intercooler which I've borrowed but not happy with so going for another one, 6x 300cc Bosch Redtop Injectors, 4bar FPR from a Corrado, and a continually growing list.

I am doing all of the work myself and the majority of it in my car park outside my flat and also on a budget, but plans are to get a custom pulley made up for the charger to see about 10-12PSi on standard internals and intercooled. If I like it and want more power at a later stage I might upgrade to an M90 and forged internals, but I'm sure that the M62 should see about 300bhp and a mountain of torque.

Anyways here are a few pics I have at hand just now, I'll continue to add as I get more parts and do more work, enjoy...
