  1. Cool, thanks for your time and knowledge. steve
  2. Cheers, i have a NOS 15974 which is a 2 stage controller with integrated TPS and window switch. i was thinking on about 3k rpm, 20% ramp over 5 seconds and off at about 6k, the % ramp and time i will need to fiddle with. i have read that 1st gear is a no-no but with a window switch 2nd should be do-able? I thought the Wizards have sorted the road legal aspect? thanks again. steve
  3. Apologies, i have jets from 30-150 HP, my solenoids are rated 200hp so i am going to try some different settings, i have a progressive controller so i dont drop it all in at once. i am after any members who have used nitrous and have any tips/tricks or general advice. cheers steve

  8. Hi all, as I am getting older and the 'style' gene is waning, I ask the above? Basically I have seen some and need opinions, being from the generation that couldn't get into clubs with trainers on, are they too Bling? All aesthetic opinions are welcome. Cheers bruv, init! ;-) Steve

  10. Thanks every one, you just saved me some money! next thing, regarding the hoses goodridge and black diamond both do sets, i beleive the GR set is SVW0604-6P (should be late model with Banjo ends) but the BD do DHK 091 (91-97) VR6 which i think are not banjo ends! http://www.dcperformance.co.uk/cheap/150322/volkswagen/black-diamond-braided-brake-hoses/dhk091.html Help! can anyone shed light? i think i may need the DHK090 (GTI with Banjo http://www.dcperformance.co.uk/cheap/150331/volkswagen/black-diamond-braided-brake-hoses/dhk090.html) cheers again S
  11. Hi, i need help choosing some new discs, I am not going to do the 312 upgrade as i like my 15" BBS. is it worth the X drilled and grooved/grooved only or are standard discs with good pads enough? also is it worth doing the braided hoses as well? (if i do this i will change the rear discs and bearings too) my baby is lightly modded and i am NOT going to FI (famous last words ;-) cheers in advance S.
  12. Hi, £545 seems steep, had my repair done by BBA reman http://www.bba-reman.com/catalogue/Product.aspx?product=3639 plus a few hours labour, its been good as gold for 18 months. hope this is of use. S.
  13. Cheers, HP is HP though. am booked in with Vince at stealth on thursday and may do a run with mod vs unmod. will let you know! thanks for the input. S
  14. Hi All, found this and would like your opinions.... http://forums.subdriven.com/showthread.php?4908119-1.8t-Intake-Air-Sensor-mod/page2 i would think that a closer to real temperature reading would be an advantage. i look forward to your replies. cheers S
  15. Hi Kez, just bought secondhand box from fleabay and did this mod http://forums.vwvortex.com/showthread.php?2837772-DIY-COMPLETE-very-detailed-airbox-intake-modification-write-up. the noise is mad on WOT people just stop and stare! also did a run to Bournemouth and averaged 30 mpg @ 75 + popped to Seabrights the other day but you were not about, drop me a line and come listen. regards S. sorry forgot to add, i left honeycomb and velocity stack in place (after reading comments) S
  16. Hi, sorry to jack but will the 312's still fit the original 15" rims or will you need to get bigger wheels ? cheers steve
  17. Hi, had mine changed last year i there is a decent picture guide somewhere, cant find the link but google heater matrix removal. vaelo do a replacement try GSF. one point when its being done you may have to take a connector from the old one and duplicate a hole and fit it to the new (its a vacuum hose for the recirc button) if you have aircon its more difficult. why not bypass it and get it done in better weather (no hot air though!)
  18. Hi, replaced mine with the Ford version all good (about £25)here is link i found earlier http://www.vr6oc.com/e107_plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?232789 part no -7364573 :valve assembly for a galaxy v6 circa 1996-onwards or you could go for a catch can solution cans on fleabay (unknown quality) for about the same money. happy driving steve
