20vt Cabby 56k go make some root beer

well i never actualy did a thread for this car so i what ill do is do a photo dump

ive actualy owned it for 5 years now and only paid ?600 for it back then with a running fault which turned out to be plug leads round the wrong way

this is the 3 rd cabby i have owned and probally the last one day it will sell but for now it will be ragged
 
when i got it





then this happened










first running vid

new boost pipe install










my video

new downpipe













the ducks


new rubber now bald


new hood at jamiegolfs workshop






the accident

nice one ben…

Do you think we could have a few more pics please mate…

Not enough

looking good.

like the rubber duck !!

Very nice,impressed by how much will fit in the engine bay!! 8O

Cool head lining, where did you get a red one from?

i picked up the hood with frame and headlining which is about a year old for ?140

its mohair :mrgreen:

well tommorow im going to play with the map and start increasing the boost until i hit 100% duty cycle on the injectors

from what i can make out i can see 20psi if im carful with the map also worth bearing in mind this map will only be for santapod vw action
