Well I've been a member on here long enough but never posted in here so thought it was about time.

Everything in italics is still sitting in my garage waiting to go on, I just haven't had the time this year!

Haven't got any decent shots of the whole car as of yet but I'll get some up soon

Nice car you got there. Thought about getting front areo wipers?

Quite like those rear lights, as my standard GTi ones look a bit 'brown'.

Car's looking good matey.  

Stop shopping for new stuff (for now ) and get off your rear and start getting the rest of your gear on the car!

Cheers Yeah I have thought about it, just got those Valeo Silencio flat blade replacement ones in at the moment so they look a better and certainly clean better.

Cheers! Your right, I'm terrible for buying things then not putting them on!

I'll keep my eyes open for you!!  I'm also driving a work in progress.  I've done a lot of cosmetic changes this year, but I'm leaving it until next spring to make some mechanical changes!

PS - Looks like your exhaust is squint!

I'll need a picture of yours as well so I know what to look for! I'm planning to get everything finished off early next year

My exhaust is a bit squint lol, I was just letting it bed in over the weekend and then I'll get it tightened up and aligned properly hehe

Looking good there mate.  Particularly like the cold inlet pipe connected to the Cone Filter! 

Nice car.

Well today I had it on the rollers at STAR Performance, seems to have done quite well for itself

That's incredibly impressive!

Nice job!

Bora Chris:

How on earth is your 1.6 making 125bhp?! (That's more than the 1.8na and 2.0 golf engines...  ) Just from the Milltek and air filter?

No idea! Pretty pleased with it though  

Haha, that's even better, does it feel particularly quick? I've heard that some of 2.0s produce more bhp than VW claim at about 130bhp (rather than 115), so I wonder if the 1.6s are the same...

I'm liking the look of the Milltek, I'll have to get me one, when I earn some £££s.

Yeah I guess it does for a 1.6, it pulls reasonably hard at about 4000rpm onwards.

I used to have a 1996 Rover 416Si (the newer one ) which was a 1.6 and the engine was great...if you revved it over 4000rpm it was pretty quick and sounded meaty, but below that it didn't really move. The Bora's 2.0 engine seems the opposite, the more you rev it the slower it goes (), but it is pretty torquey and about as quick as the Rover...
 

Well thought I'd visit the local scrappy today and check out a few scrapped Bora's.

Managed to get this lot

Unfortunately the plastic on the clocks was smashed but the foils etc are still intact so if anybody wants them or the whole clocks then make me an offer

Also got the shocks and springs on and it handles miles better, I'll get some pics up at some point!
