Side ones will remain, just venter one is removed for obvious reason-replaced with taller one

Bumper is cut, and 35x19mm mesh glued in place, looking great💪💪💪

Takes a lot of surgical like planing to achieve it😇😇😇, but it's worth it.

Picked up my custom 2 piece fully floating (axial and radila) discs from balancing. Even factory balanced discs when they are put together with hats they were 13 and 15g out of balance,and now after race balancing 0,1g and 0,3g. Top Job by www.elmet.hr The balanced part will be protected with industrial primer and 2k acrylic paint for rust protection

Crash bar drilled 9 times 51mm, and now also lower part with smaller diameter.

Mounting brackets in place💪

Overboost pipe polished and bracket for the head welded and fited like a glove-perfectly

Getting closer to the final stage

Passenger side pipes in place

Bumper is being fitted with new mesh tomorrow And FMIC pipe work progress

Center hats are done finally-hard eloxated preciselly according to AP Racing data

Just passed 105k views, making my thread most viewed one in project cars, proud to be so💪💪💪💪

Updates on work in progress. Due to the overboost pipe over driver side we will have to make new air inlet in bumper. Best anti vibration solution silicone hoses-tripple wired. Crash bar initially drilled in center and both ends, 3 more holes to come on each side, 9 holes all together. Brackets are welded onto FMIC, for the same fixating points as old Forge FMIC-proven to ne good

Picture please

Crash bar has started to be drilled with 51mm diameter.

And SPEC stage 3+ clutch, pressure plate with billet steel, and full faced with springs friction plate with holding capacity up to almost 700Nm, no one on the market is even close to that figures. Daily driving without any problems. And forgot to put OEM main seal

But for sure it can't harm, right?

Factory info: " EKAGRIP 6 BOLT FLYWHEEL FRICTION DISK Originally designed for about 100 horsepower, the 6 bolt flywheel interface on the VW / Audi engines struggles when subjected to serious power. Even with ARP Flywheel bolts, this interface can become taxed and allow the flywheel to slip around under high torque. This leads to wear between the surfaces, and shortly thereafter complete failure of the bolts and joint. This ruins the flywheel and crankshaft, and can even damage the transmission bell housing. In order to fight this we had EKagrip make some of their patented nickel and diamond coated friction shims. These shims increase the friction between the two components by up to 3 times what is seen with regular steel on steel contact. This greatly increases the load which can be carried. The shims are .008" thick, and do not cause any alignment problems with the clutch / flywheel. An absolute must for any engine making 450+ ft-lb with the 6 bolt VW/Audi flywheel flange. Increases friction by up to 300% Fits all VW/Audi 6 bolt flywheels A must for high HP engines" There is also the same one for camgears.

Can I buy it? Increases the contact by 3 Times between flywheel and bolts even they are ARP

EKAGRIP for flywheel is comming to

I also did put Airtec intercooler painted in black in my wife's Smart 451 Brabus turbo engine. Great one and fit

Bumper is properly cut. New plastic mesh with large oppening is painted glossy black. New EBC BLUESTUFF NDX brake pads picked from post office today. SPEC stage 3+ clutch and OEM main seal arrived today from USA. Now waiting for center hats to be hard anodised in Zagreb by Tiz metali,and than assembled and balanced by www.elmet.hr. Than EBC prescribed brake in procedure for the new pads and discs. Than SACH Performance clutch with full faced organic disc to be thrown in garbage and replaced by newly balanced my old machined SPEC SV21ST flywheel with new stage 3+ clutch together with new ARP 25mm bolts and EKAGRIP flywheel disc for extra safety.

Great clean all black installation. Next time I will also do all smooth black. I don't see overboost pipe going over air filter side if FMIC is not dual pass-any picture of pipes please? I Like thise caps for oil,washers fluid, antifreeze and servo pump. I need that for the servo pump but polished-which one is it and where to get it? Which air deflector are you using for air filter?

Car was left in Vesko racevar garage for the so long avaited installation of the new Garrett FMIC with 2.5" pipes all around. Crash bar will be perforated and bumper cut for bigger mesh Air filter Will be fully enclosed in new air box with air feed duct attached to it. Box will be additionally thermo insulated with 1cm adhesive sponge with reflective alu film on it. New air deflector in bumper will be made from Titanium, and adapted for the passage of new overboost pipe over driver side On pictures you see how new core is thicker than old Forge one, same thickness as endtanks which are narrower than old Forge ones. I have measured old FMIC-core and endtanks and searched as crazy for the right one, from Wagner tuning (wanted their Competition core-fine tube) to the Setrab and back to the Garret which turned out as perfect one. Dimenasions are: 450x307x76mm rated for 750hp and perfect fit behind crash bar. Updates to come...

New Mann WK730/1 fuel filter in place
