ARL tunning engine in place

Hello friends, following my previous photos, I enclosed now the latest update about my conversion. It was a long and expensive process but I have finally been able to make it work.
Power steerling rack was also added, so it has all the features of a modern car: ABS, ARC, AA……quite powerful, but I want to go for a remap that will obtain around 200hp in a diesel car.
I also want to add information about two pieces I have used for the conversion that could be interesting: For the water radiator I have used a Corrado one, and for the  intercooler as my space with very very squeeze as AA radiator is also there, I have used a Renault Megane intercooler.
Pictures are there:

Hola Gonzalo- me gusta mucho tu coche!

The torque must be incredible in such a light car?

The interior is great- subtle but obviously a big effort to anyone who knows Golfs.

Thanks.  Torque is immense, still managing it….
 The interior was tylored using original vw centre clothing from a supplier called:

I used the GTI original seats but changed the clothing and used for the sides a and blue systetic leather with holes to breathe. I liked it from an old mercedes W123 that had my great grandfather years ago.
