ben_notts 0 Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 right ive just bought a few tuner bits to add to my collection and was after some pointers / some ideas thrown in the mix.im currently running a BMC CDA and a jetex cat back system but to add to this ive bought a schrick VGI mani, a raceland 6 branch and a de-cat.before i get them on im just wondering what is worth doin when it goes in the garage - new leads / plugs? heat wrap the 6 branch? anything else - can you still get them doughty racing cams fr cheap anywhere??ive also got some porka 4 pots going onto drilled n grooved 312's and a progressive NOS controller kit coming too! so im gonna do a full fluid change to 5.1 fluid braided hoses and a full service at the same time.i just wondered if you guys had any other tips that can lower the drama factor when we do it!cheersB.

ben_notts 0 Posted January 31, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 not got the hoses yet as im not quite sure which i need - not had chance to have a look yet RAPste,ive got a mate whos a vw tech at basford so he does bits and bobs for me theres quite a few people that i can think of though C+R in radford being the best but you pay good money for it. graham pete in stapleford, nathan there is into dubs he could hook you up. even big city by vic centre they do the full 'post mot' exhaust systems too one thing though make sure you get it wrapped cos they get HOT!anyone got a schrick pdf by the way?

craggsy 91 Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 Why Corrado VR gearbox? I was under the impression that all UK VR 'boxes had same ratios Link to post Share on other sites
ben_notts 0 Posted January 31, 2010 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 my mate at vw swears by the rado box on all his vr's i always thought they are different, my mate has one in his mk2vr and the ratios are much longer in my golf.im thinking of doing the transmission at the same time as chains / overhaul, but thats when the clutch gives up the ghost!

VR6Pete 1,455 Posted January 31, 2010 Report Share Posted January 31, 2010 Pretty sure the corrado and golf had the same gearbox. Link to post Share on other sites
ben_notts 0 Posted February 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2010 just another thing, does the schrick need an extra pump for the vacuum flap? ive only got the ecu controller and the manifold, do i need anything else?cheersB Link to post Share on other sites
