Joel

coil overs - december

fmic, remap, bigger pipes, exhaust, DP(maybe), CAI, boost controller - february

screen for sat-nav - april

tints - march

water spray for above intercooler - march

hopefully thats it, might be a bit hopefull on the timescales but we'll find out in the long run ;)

have a list of things to be done still but couldn't really put a month on getting them done due to depends how good a month i've had at work so will just put down the items to be purchased:-

KW Coilovers

Sat-Nav

Full Samco Hoses

Defi Boost Gauge

Window Tints

Turbo Timer

can't think of anything else right now so will have to edit appropriately

Getting the car cleaned and polished by a pro.

Chrome frame for the lower air intake

Music ( Woofer, CD Changer, Amplifier )

Perhaps a remap ( But I am still not sure about this, because

my octy has done over 160000KM until now )

Getting the car cleaned and polished by a pro.

Want to get that done also.... other than that maybe a second car..

Could be an MPV so I can go nuts with the octy, or could be a trackday toy like a caterfield or ariel.. just don't know yet.

Probably buying something cheap for work after March so i can keep the Octy as a weekend toy :)

Other than that, probably no mods.

As the warranty has run out (like I had any in the first place).

400BHP or a Golf GTi :rubchin:

Can't do anything to the Octy as it's a company car.

But my old Audi 100 will be sold this year, probably to be replaced with something big (BMW 750iL is favourite at the moment).

The quattro is almost finished now bar getting the suspension set up properly and having the fueling finally done properly so it'll run on full boost ok for more than about 20% of the time. Then drive it lots.

Mrs's S6 will need a new clutch and that'll lead on to a final head and turbo upgrage to top 400bhp but that's as far as that'll be going as it's the sensible towing car.

Not many plans for mine except the ICE will get done - hoping to keep the standard HU and amp it and get my subwoofer back in there...

Performance mods are unlikely to be any more than a strut brace at this point, and frankly the car is not likely to see anything more than that done to it until the latter end of 2006 when the light at the end of the tunnel begins to show (end of warranty) ;)

ahem. January I hope to fit the now painted roof spoiler. Also maybe by the end of January something else of a bodywork nature should be fitted. ;)

Other than that my only desire is to get bigger brakes done this side of the July, and hopefully nip back to Jabbasport for another tweaking and a hope they'll get a reliable high 150s / low 160s out of my car. Not sure on that one yet, but another visit to Jabba is on the cards.

Apart from that, I really don't plan to modify my car anymore than that. (like I ever "plan" it. :rolleyes: )
