guys in an effort to create more business and attract more people , id like to ask you to search for JP Automotive on facebook and click on like.. alot of what i do is on there , along with some pricing for the more common parts. thx jim
-
no problem
-
as craggsy said .. diff rollers read diff, take it all with a pinch of salt. and its trq as well as bhp
-
ahhhhh my brain won't stop thinking, turbo time....

dont bother with mega squirt, the o/e ecu will cope with the correct parts fitted and then altered to suit , contact me if you need info or prices -
just make a cold air shield for yours don . cost you under a tenner , and they do work i made 2bhp @ fly when i fitted 1 to an old scirocco gti i had. dont sound like alot, but inlet temps were lower and the filter didnt get heat soaked by the engine
-
anyone want some then ? these are a good investment..

lukey please refrain from using word such as those in your last post on a public forum .. you are entitled to your opinion, but please construct it in a way that others wont find offensive .

ive asked gav about the locking wheel nut key, he has no idea whats happend to it .. cars looking nice btw
-
yeah can do, ill recheck single prices and let you know . as not enough interest for a gb .. unless you can get 3 more peeps
-
you cant but i can the mods done to dons car ( or gavs old car for those that no him ) were done with drive ability , trq and reliability in mind. bar the final drive mod, which tbh i dont think its worth doing unless your having the box out for some other reason, then its as far as you can go. yes you can fit a shrick , but for the cost , youd be better off going charged , be that super or turbo.
-
john the mods don has , are a good example of what works in a n/a car.. exhaust , cams, filter, lightened flywheel , ecu remap .. email me at my email addy below if you would like more info or pricing on any of the above
-
yeah give him a go.. i need to shift some more ecu's
-
it could well be a 3 box system then.. the two box ones tend to be a bit throatier
-
have you scanned it with vcds ? has it registered a fault code ?
-
Kev, i said its a fools upgrade in as much as if it ain't broke don't fix it . don was asking what else he could do, which to be fair , isnt alot unless he spends a fair bit of money. the labour charges and sourcing of the part for the final drive , dont really make it a simple upgrade thats cost effective .. if the clutch was going or gone then fair enough , whilst its all out and off then do it. the 150mph was that gps'd or speedo reading ? as i only got 159.9 gps'd over a standing mile , and tbh i think it was more or less maxed .

sorting it the pics as we speak
-
now selling some new UM ones, with replaceable bearings... so no more buying a whole unit.. please see the market engine parts for details
-
ive been using a solo guy for years.. its more the fitting than the screen itself .. he always takes his time , and the screens have always been fine . infact i ve used to him to reseal other people bodges ..
-
no probs, you have my bat phone number
-
Lol, I'm so impatient

Screwed over.com
-
No it ain't .....
-
might add, im sure craigs shrick wasnt mapped ... although maping a car may not add alot of bhp / trq , it will sort out the mess of a curve / driveablilty that just slapping parts on leaves.. this and the 3.68 fd , will have helped pete ..
-
the 3.68 final drive will comprimise your top speed and make your economy worse on a longer run.. your choice but i wouldnt touch what aint broke .. maybe if it did break then think about it, but otherwise its alot if labour for a fools gain .
