Had some fun NOW WITH PICS OF BAY 18th Oct

My friend Stuart finally got his mk1 back from Awesome after a year, and wow the performance.
he took me for a spin in it, i was stunned, it was originally a 1.8 gti, it has had a Audi tt 225 block put in turbo and all, i did get pics of engine but sd card goosed up so only have some of car.
Car hits 100 in no time, i really did enjoy myself, i could not stop laughing as my head went back
 I never have had the chance to sit in a mk1 with such power and i can honestly say i will never forget it.
Stuart who is known to some here & runs his own garage in whitefield is looking forward to a regional meet in northwest area so he can come along, with moving home recently he has not had no internet.
So i will keep him informed of any meets due to come soon in NW area.

Obviously a quality job, fantastic looking engine bay.

Driving it out of this world, the car is stunning in flesh, paint is smooth as a babies rear, i really wish i could own something like this for the rush alone.

another one converted so when you going to get one pedders ive got 2 on my drive at the moment

1 is a 200bhp
and a 260 bhp

and yes they hit the 100 in no time at all cars like this are a serious bit of kit

I know they've spent 11k on the conversion but what would one of those sell for?

I dont know myself, but had a little discussion with owner aka member here called BIGSTEW and i have 1st dabs if he ever sells it, i never wanted bigger blocks i.e gti's, turbo's etc, but after this………………………
It currently produces 300bhp
Better start saving

That's a nice conversion!  Been in a couple of 20v and it's pretty addictive, hopefully having a crack at this myself soon.
