    some people say that the original exhaust manifold is more than up to the job , and because its cast is stronger as well, you can port out your exhaust manifold as the ports due to casting marks are slightly smaller then the ones on the block, i have done this to my spare one but i havent fitted it yet untill i get my modded inlet manifold welded up and ill fit them all together

    well scince im off this week iv been doing a little bit of painting first off was my engine cover i thought i would try and do it in a modern OEM look if you no wat i mean then i removed my audi centercaps as the were a dark grey colour and matched them to the actual alloy wheel colour makes them look much cleaner i also replaced some of the missing door mounlding clips so all the trim is stuck down on the edges, and replaced the tops of both side skirts as i had lost one of the rear ends caps so thought i might as well replace both sides, then the last little bit of the up date i removed

    iv got a powerflow cat back currently fitted to my vr now it has 2 3" squared bores on it and im a bit bored of it now so i have now got a 6x4 oval one now but it was off a mk3 1.8 so it doesnt have the lage scilencer that is jus before the back box , so before i try and fit it , is it worth me ding so ? i no it will be louder as it will have a scilencer missing but will it physicly fit ? and will the performance be affected as i will be loosing a scilencer ?
  23. philbatesvr6

    iv got 15's on mine i have the audio a3 pepperpots but hey are only 6j wude but the standard vr6 alloys are 6.5j so not that much difference realy, i use mine every day and tbh it feels alot better than when i had my 17's on it, mike is saying that they look lost in the mk3s arches he jus hasnt seen one lowered enough lol, i think mine sits just rite as i wound the coilovers rite down but not too much that they catch on speed bumps
