Cheers guys, Shes running 360bhp now, I have some more bits to do yet as I have a house full or parts that need fitting.

6Speed conversion
Brembo Brakes
Roof Bar Delete
Charge speed side skirts
Wind deflectors

Next Month she is going into the bodyshop for the saloon wide rear arch conversion.

As for the lights im not a big fan of the Blob or Hawk rear lights. I have had both sets here and decided not to fit them so sold them on.

Blitz nur spec
full decat
sti inlet manifold with tgv deletes
vf35 turbo
running maffless on carberry map with anti lag
550 sti pink injectors

lots of other bits but that's the engine side of things.

Nope I got it as a sh!tter off facebook of all places. it had a knackered gearbox among other things.

Spec isn't too impressive, but its still in the fixer upper sages so its getting there.

Full decat system
k&n intake
HDI front mount ntercooler
ECUTEK remap on td04 to 272bhp
walbo fuel pump

Now considering a larger turbo and remap

Nice Wagon.

Hated the Bug when it came out but now 12-13 year later starting to look good. Talk about a grower.

Very nice bug is that. They have really grown on me over the last few years and with the right bits they can look superb. Looking forward to seeing it with the rear arches stretched out too.

I think those arches would justify fitting an STi S201 spoiler, that's what i'm after for mine anyway................. (they the same colour grey too)
