    With the 20mm spacers the tyres hit the arches so couldn't go all the way down

    then decided to have a play with some spacers, 15mm get me a little lower and less tyre arch contact

    also thought it'd be rude not to try the bbs wheels too

    So I have decided to change up the golf a little over the next few months. Having come to terms with the fact I doubt I will do track days in it I want to use it more and make it a little more comfortable. So I am going for a subtle amp/sub install, false floor and air ride. Then tidy some bits of paint up and drive it.

    Made a start on the sub install.

     

    Started with a frame.

    In place

    Plan is to lay the false floor over the top and carpet it with as close to OEM as possible. Looking to have a hinged section in the middle maybe with some other trick bits.

    Then air ride will sit on rear seat base. May find another set of rear carpets as mine went in the skip.

    I cant remember the pulley diameter off hand, but its the 8psi pulley. I am however not making 8 psi, from what i can see from the digital boost gauge I am making just over 6.5psi. I believe this is because I have increased the volume in the inlet and the supercharger cant push that amount of volume at the same pressure. I am thinking of machining the pulley down slightly to increase the RPM on the supercharger and therefore increase boost pressure. I have a 12psi pulley kicking about but I am apprehensive to use this as I would probably have to use a decompression plate.

    Ah okay. If you do get the chance to stick a ruler or caliper accross it let me know. I'm looking to get mapped to 8psi soon
