R88 JRD Bora Tdi s3 seats Fitted

after selling my old golf mk4 tdi pd100 i moved onto a golf 1.8t






i now need something bigger and cheaper to run as my new job is less money so the 1.8t will soon be up for sale

so i now own a tdi bora sport pd130







currant mods :
turbo back exhaust to 3inch tip
egr delete
spitfire remap (not the best doesnt even smoke)

Not had much time to do Anything with the car yet but managed to de-badge it




Spot the differance (H)

Sooo some changes have been made

Skoda Octavia vrs half leathers








had a trip to darkside developments yestoday and got the bora re remapped all i can say the difference is 1000x bettter turbo is set to its max safe limit and also no smoke so I'm now running around 175bhp estimated

Done a few mods today while the weather was nice

Black rear badge





Painted headlights

Very nice mate liking this, sounds like u got the same sort of ideas as me aswell as the same engine :-D just seems u have a bit more spare cash than me haha, liking the leather mate suits the car well and got my brain ticking..... just wondering if leather from a superb will go in a passat cos whenever i find a passat breaking its always a bloody wagon lol an the rear seats are too big......

fitted some subtle headlight film today

very nice mate, small mod but makes a noticeable difference, tinted headlights always toughen up the front end

this looks mint, i rekon those wheels look better on the bora than the golf, but i rate cant descide on the exhaust
and that interior looks mint, i never liked the wooden trim in my bora so had it carbon wraped
nice motor, you should bring it to the rr day to get the power out put

looking good man!

remember seeing you golf at lowdown a few times!

really wanna get mine mapped, but at the mo my intercooler is buggered and all me boost pipes are held together with steel cable ties........think that might need sorting first! haha!

Be good to see what figures you get at the RR day as ill be looking at Darkside for mine!

I'm very intrigued can't wait to see this one!

uprated my boost pipe to a 2.25" alloy pipe instead of the horrible restrictive plastic original

also wrapped it up in some silicone tape

Good idea mate cars looking great keep up the great work

very nice but is that tie wraped to the air con?

Temp fix lol didn't want it rubbing the alturnator

Fitted the gill with the badge back on think I prefer it as I hate the bonnet notch on the badgeless grill

I agree but could u re paint the badge a dark chrome to match the headlights? Think that would look subtle but nicely finishing it of :-)

You can't really tell in this picture but I've wrapped the badge in the same stuff as I used for the headlights

Next mod I love to get the roof wrapped in black

What do you think to my wheels in white ?

I like, make it look a little more bently style, if u know what I mean, but its a big jump, arnt they chrome atm?

There like a turned / polished sort of finish but have some kurbing so they need spraying

But just really unsure on what colour as the wheels are a big surface :/

so today was nice weather

so i removed my tow bar and tweaked the exhaust which im stil unsure about

heres a before shot



after

i like that, looks stealth and very cool, not overated but nicley diffrent, nice work mate
