All done a few days ago...fingers crossed it won't leak!

Should be ok as they are electric senders...correct? So should be wire n play right?
-
I have seen a few audi vdo gauges...some with senders some without. Will a 0-5bar oil pressure be enough or would i need 0-10bar? If I get a complete set with/without senders could i the get all the necessary parts at a reasonable price?

ok...Kool,

Bearing in mind that I am a complete novice. I would like to install 3 VDO gauges. I know where I will put the gauges in the car but need help in choosing the right ones to make an easy install. 1st, Oil pressure gauge, Can I get one that will splice to a original sender on top of the oil filter housing? Right, regarding oil temp...I will leave that to the MFA. Water temp is indicated on the clocks (well, sort of) So 2nd, Volt meter (naff, i know) 3rd, Lambda, Air/Fuel mixture...I know this one will be a bit expencive if I want a good one. Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks

Cheers Paul...will do the above soon.

Is the core plug a tight enough fit or did you have to use something to seal it? Did the old one come out easily?
-
1) Fitted crack pipe, mocal oil cooler and ditched the heat exchanger. Now left with two holes, 1) on the crack pipe which can be blocked with a 1/4 NPT plug 2) on the Block itself Should I get a hose made to connect the two holes? or block the hole on the engine block? If so, what's the best way to block this hole? I want to fit the corrado clocks but will the MFA work with my MK2 stalks, CE2 fusebox, if it makes any difference.

Venom motorsport do a kit which I am going to purchase when I have the funds and they are specific to what you need.
-
I fitted it the same way you did GVK...thanks!
-
I used the cone shaped gasket to fit in between the bracket
-
Would a gasket be supplied to fit in between the 6 branch and de-cat? Got the bracket sorted it is now redy for a de-cat pipe.

A decent cat 1 alarm and immobiliser will cost around the £300 mark ad if your not fussy with make for £300 you will have a few toys with it...last time I added engine start (5 years ago) it cost around £200 extra so price should have dropped by now!
-
I'm going to get a decat pipe to# mate to my mk2 exhaust and see if I can convert the bracket on the 6 branch to 3 holes.
-
will post up some pics to make more sence on friday guys
-
anyone purchased a 6 branch manifold from hottuning as at the end of the 6 branch piper is a bracket with 2 holes and in the bag there is a bracket with 3 holes, a gasket and some nuts (3) and bolts with 3 springs???????????????????
-
not that it makes a difference..........but might do as I love the damn thing more that my wife lol.
-
also wanted to add that I have reconditioned the engine new timing parts, honed block, ported head (from the shed), 6 branch manifold, de-cat pipe, car has been wax oiled fully underneath, 280mm brakes upgrade narrow track....all from a corrado and everything apart from honing block and porting head done b myself.

Ok, so I have driven and been insured on 5 mk2 golf gti's and now am in the process of building my very own mk2 vr6. In the meantime however I am driving a Toyota Lucida Import 8 seater and FINGERS CROSSED the mk2 vr6 project will be ready in time before my insurance renewal on the toyota. I am planning on selling the wagon to use the mk2 as a daily. I am over 25 and have over 5 years no claim bonus is this fine?
-
Might actually be a lot cheaper as I have a exhaust which I could use for a while. Was going to get a system from the manifold back made up which would have cost £300.00 so £60.00 sounds better with an exhaust system that I already have.

So I would need the golf 3 decat pipe? http://www.hottuning.eu/?nav=products&subnav=view&product_id=344
