    Mk3 - do anti-roll bars or strut braces help? Also performance help please

    Thanks mate. Yeah was looking at powerflex bushes. Nothing but good reports. Also lookingat VF engine mounts, but if I'm replacing bushes anyway that will get silly expensive - especially with two anti-roll bars to incorporate. Places like Venom have loads of differnet brake makers, but I...

    Mk3 - do anti-roll bars or strut braces help? Also performance help please

    Thanks PG. More handling than looks, though I would like a small drop for style. Much more interested in the handling. When you ask about VR setup are you talking about brakes or suspension? Brakes are different I think. Suspension; couldn't tell you. And when you say fitting front and...

    Mk3 - do anti-roll bars or strut braces help? Also performance help please

    Finally found a job and hoping to start work on my GTi 16v soon. First thing will be silicone pipes for coolant and air (and possibly the new samco fuel grade stuff) because I am losing coolant every 3 4 months. In terms of performance, I am looking to gain 50bhp, preferably with low rev...

    KICKER any good folks?

    Heard good things about them, but from a source I don't trust. Just wondered if anyone here had any experience with the brand? Just curious. Thanks guys.

    HDI fun: Do you know where you can get those figures you have for the Mondeo? Celtic tuning quote 197BHP and 315lb/ft and not found better elsewhere. Would be a shame, as I like the mondeos look and my dads was nice to drive.

    Can you/ is it worth upgrading diesel turbos?

    Spot on guys thanks. I like the styling of the 2.2 mondeo. Apart from getting hold of the audi turbo and fitting it, what other work would I need to do do you think to have a reliable unit with the PD?

    I realise it is a VW group lump I just don't know how to identify the models. Will type it in to google now. Edit: tried to put this as an edit to earlier post but you got there first!

    Can you/ is it worth upgrading diesel turbos?

    @ pgarner: where do you find VAG PDs? Sounds awesome. @ HDI fun: Used, unless I can eke my GTi's life out for 2.5 years - then I will be doing a job that will allow new. But probably be nearly-new at best; savings over kudos. How recently did they introduce that engine...

    Can you/ is it worth upgrading diesel turbos?

    Nothing yet. I have been looking at trying to get a petrol (1.8t VW version probably) to run as a family car and tune. I have decided that it may be more prudent to just get a family car and 'something for the weekend' to really go to town on - i.e. strip out etc. Was thinking of 300ZX or...

    Without N2O? :lol: i.e uprated clutch? do shortened gear ratios help? etc.
