The Interior job looks like magic to me )
I wonder if same could be done with white leather, mine is in need with this kind of treatment badly )

Didnt clear the MOT today

Emission test failed... Hydrocarbons (HC) was to high on idle but on 2500rpm it was 0 (the limit is 100) and got 180 in idle... think I must tweak the fuel map or raise the idle in VEMS-Tune to get it corrected... but that´s a minor... a big fail was that my left new control arm that´s only been on the car 1000km has started to fail >=( the brand was Meyle HD and will never buy them again... they didn´t give me any point to fix on that so it´s just the exhaust emission I have to fix so no biggy...

Then probably next friday 22th I´ll get my 3" downpipe with race catalyst converter welded together with the BN-pipe, really looking forward to that

cool! keep us posted!

[Wrath]

They came with the very cheap exhaust But it´s just a piece of stainless plate with a loose hanger welded on, and then bent for my liking.... I believe I have two spare but don´t think I will be needing them...

[Thuppu]

Can I ask you, how did you do, or where did you get these exhaust brackets?

[Wrath]

new updates...

Got some garagetime today with children and animals out in the way "Hans" a friend of mine was kind to lend me some hands and his garage so we could change the leaky stock exhaust manifold to a proper RS2 one, my god it was tight with the nuts under the manifold in the middle but after a homemade 12 wrench and some swearing it´s there, also changed the engine mounts and gear mounts.

Tomorrow it´s MOT day and next week I´ll get the 3" downpipe welded together with my BN-Pipe exhaust...

Then it´s time for my Bilstein B12 kit with the newpainted chassi going to be really nice...

[Wrath]

Have got all my bushings now and as soon as possible I´ll order a Bilstein B12 kit so I can do some trackdays with the big german



All bushings to front and rear, all tierod and suchs are changed last year.







Front and rear subframe bushings for that crispy feel Thanks to Thuppu and Bambridge







Just some garage days so I can paint the sand blasted chassie that I got eariler...
Also got my Steering wheel upholstred, images are coming soon on that... got really really nice.

Thanks mate !

[smiler]

Looks great... Im putting dual on the RS

[Wrath]

As quoted before it´s still some adjustment to be made (level out left muffler and push both in a few mm.) but im so pleased with the sound

[Wrath]

It was from a scrapyard company here in Sweden, they have raised their prices but still have them 275 SEK a piece (~25£)

Forgot, yes the headlight glass are some aftermarket i bought here in Sweden brand is TYC and cost like ~22£ each so... they are not oem but they do their job

Have you got a link for the place you got the headlight glass from?

[Wrath]

Thomas,

had missed out your 740, that was really nice... yeah kinda looks the same... just need to tweak mine a little bit, need to lower both muffler i think 5mm or so and align them up better ...

Here´s a soundclip with another guy with the same system. Sounds kinda the same i believe, the only different is that the car in the video have 3" downpipe and a 3" catalyst... mine still have the stock downpipe and catalyst... believe mine is a little darker tone to it...

[Thuppu]

And the sounds is mindblowing, sounds like a 911 turbo or something, really deep dark tone with that crispy 5 cylinder noise...

Cool! It now looks almost the same as mine with Eisenmann's.

Looking forward to hear the sound. BN-pipes usually has a nice dark sound, but raw metalic scream on high rpm's.
