cheers guys,

Can you not get some spacers to clear the calipers?

Can you not get some spacers to clear the calipers?

Nice but why not buy the cupra tdi to start with?

yet again " long time no update "

i blocked my egr off and put the gasket over exhaust manifold but didnt put it on correct went to undo it and snapped the bolt, went to take the turbo off to get the bolt off and managed to snap another 3 bolts great lol so i would of had to send my original turbo off to have the bolts removed so i have bought a 150bhp AET Hybrid turbo

it wasnt a staight fit had to modify boost pipes so had to get recovered from Duetchmarke who fitted the turbo up to Top Gear Performance on a low loader another problem due to my FMIC i couldnt put towing eye on so it had to go up backwards nearly taking my bumper off but got there in the end LOL

had it fitted now its much better pulls all the waty through the revs and feels to kick in again at 3500 revs i love it!

Still not got my 4 pots fitted yet but i definalty need them they have been sprayed yellow yesterday and hopefully will be gettin fitted next saturday :)

Heres a couple of pictures
