Nice to see some progress. So you still have this same car after 18 years?
Same as me, Bought mine also in 1997 still owner of it and modifying it at the moment.

Ever thought to place an intercooler on the car?

thanks for the replies...... yes owned the car for quiet a few years. its the #3 longest running vw i have owned. #1 is a 69 type3 fastback #2 87 2dr jetta...... but this golf has received by far the most love over all the years. i am starting to think an intercooler will be a good addition. boost will be going up a lot soon so im working on plans to improve things along with the boost change.

picked up an 02M 6spd swap for the car so now things are going to get real fun......

not much, cars running on stock injection again. decided i didn't have time to finish getting the MS3X working properly. Planing to revisit standalone this fall when life slows down. the 02M swap will be installed along with doing some other changes under the hood.

 

[VWDub-eh]

I feel you on that one with standalone problems

Psyched to see some photo updates.

guess its time to update this...... cars about the same really...... back on stock harness/ecu with c2 chip.... runs okay enough. took it for spin after a good year of ignoring it. def need to look into the electrical some reason it like to shut off randomly while driving. also time to do something to the breaking system....... it is more like a suggested sound system than stopping at this time had a real pucker moment getting back to the shop with only the e-brake working. all the same its such a blast to drive... :facepalm:
