Re: door bars on my MK8
Hi all,
i took the Dav out today on some private land,first time i have ever driven it.
Problems are
1, my arm hits the mot handbrake !
2, my right foot hits the throttle pedal when going for the brakes !
3, its so soft on the road !
worst of all a low soft brake pedal.
Do they all have so much front end grip,very good, if todays anything to go by she could be a quick rally car indeed.
Pictures to follow sunday.
Will be driving it to Goodwood stage rally on the 11th of Feb
Come along and see it.

Re: door bars on my MK8
Dean, any reason for not keeping the throttle bodies and emerald ecu?
Re: door bars on my MK8
Hi yes easy answer,my mapping guy said we will be better off standard,and use crome,or ectune and a standard ecu,we mapped a B16b engine in the gtm in standard trim and saw 207bhp.+ i sold the ech and t/b`s for £1100.
As a race car around Brands where you are always right up at 8-9k we could get a few bhp,but as a rally engine,and a car i will go out on the road in,even get 30+mpg standard is best.

Re: door bars on my MK8
Well she had her m.o.t today,then a quick drive,man this is a quick little thing.
under 700kilos and 175bhp makes for some interesting speeds,in such a sort distance.
Happy at last,let the testing start.
Need to lose bump steer from the from,make the thing a bit softer,less rear camber and shes there,weekend pad bedding in for me.
