  1. It just so happens I have a bonnet on a mk3 I'm breaking that's been bad boy'd [emoji12]
  2. I'd say 400 should achievable with your set up
  3. Nice work mate and welcome to the mad house. There's a fair few people in the club who have turbo'd VR's so if you need any help there'll be plenty thrown at you
  4. Yeah that'll help. Yes you can get them all off from above mate. Are you using a short runner inlet?
  5. Ahh. Mine were the same. Just take the nuts off at the head an slide the manifolds off there. You need them off anyway to put the turbo mani on
  6. Nice work mate. Which bolts were you taking the manifold? Off the head or the ones where it they connect to the downpipes?
  7. Welcome along mate. Get a build thread going
  8. Ahh make I was well pissed off when I done that. I was using my plug tool too
  9. I wanted to go but when my engine started knocking it's tits off I knew I wasn't gonna make it
  10. Ah mate I was well pissed off. I had my plug lead on too
  11. Well started stripping the engine to try and find my horrible top end knock. I was hoping to find something really obvious as you could feel it through the rocker when it was knocking. It didn't knock all the time but when it did it felt like something was hitting the rocker cover [emoji20] oh and also done this while taking the plug leads off I'm not having a good day so far [emoji20]
  12. Also ibs get a thread goin of your turbo build when you start it, I may need to use it when I collect the parts for mine [emoji12]
  13. Well this isn't a good updated [emoji20] the VR is rattling it's tits off on the top end by the sound of if. I got in at work today to come home and it's was fine then a rattle appeared at about 3000rpm then it progressively got worse. So its gonna have to wait till the weekend now so I can investigate
  14. Welcome to the club mate. Nice jetta too definitely my cup of tea

    Nice collection mate I wish I had the space for all that
  17. The schrick will be fine with a turbo setup as would the standard inlet but I'm with calico, when I turbo mine I'm going to use a short runner inlet
  18. Welcome along mate. Get some pics up and a build thread going
  19. Nah its the one on the top you need mate
  20. The bolt that bolts through the mount on the engine into the cross member. There should only be 1
