'83 Gti 16v turbo

This runs  first turn starter now once all the nags where ironed out! 

Building it back into a full car sat over the weekend but lost battery so could take pics. 

Having two silicone hoses made up for reasonable money as I've put a top fill in and swapped stuff about I don't really want 4 joints in it when I can have just 2, one at each end. 

Will post some pics on wed eve of the interior in etc. 

Sounds like you've been busy mate. Get some pics up

Bloody have man! Only time I've looked back recently and seen some progress! 

Il grab some pics mid week, going to make a jig for somebody then so need to go up 

Ok mate standing by for pics of the work

On it! Il picture the hidden ecu  I'm impressed with my wiring hiding. Never ever done wiring 

Double checked all the timing today just to be sure. 


And sorted my belt scenario out, so here's a pic of my setup down that side. Trigger wheel is for mega jolt and mounted just behind that to the block is the crank sensor 

Spent a bit of time putting interior back together and took this pic of the edis and mega jolt ecu positioning, left the computer cable in and tucked in the glove box for easy mapping 

Not the neatest of them all but hey ho. One thing il note here is that I welded a bolt to the chassis near the fuse box to earth all the mega jolt stuff all together to stop Any interference and ensure good earths. 
And been driving it around today too  

Looking good brad, not long now till she's ready

FAIR PLAY!! U dnt hang about mate, wats it like with mega jolt all fitted?

Thanks man! Erm, now I've messed with carbs and got a decent ish map on, its fast! Loving the cable change box too it's so smooth! 

Made this too 

And an interior shot minus centre console 

love the work on this, and the wheels you a have on now  

Cheers man. Appreciate it a lot. Got running issues on back but I don't wanna compromise how it sits haha. Whacked some bump stops in for now see how it hangs in. 

Practically finished now mate

mot Wednesday, then back to daily driving, Santa pod next Friday but undecided whether to take it up strip or not. 

It will never be finished either haha. 

Impressed by your motivation laddie


Need to get mine done and then we can race

Cheers Arun 

Haha which one we racing  the blue or white one 

Quite keen to see what times I can get in strip 

Update,  been mapping today and setting fuel pressure/balancing carbs. Thing feels fast! 

Mate was up with a camera aswell so here's what he took.

Gotta fit the filter to the carb aswell bit hopefully be driven wed after a test
