UKPassats

Hi all, so I've got a gutted cat and straight through pipe atm and dont like the airy whistly sound it makes, I did think about a cherry bomb but think I'm gona try a powerflow back box as its £10 off a mate and see how that sounds!
I'm also planning a fmic then a map but did read about boost ...

I'm traveling the m4 wales to london next weekend anyone close thats up for mapping my sat?

Just want to not chew though tyres and have decent handling, its an estate not a race car after all ;)
Mpg seams to be down since I fitted suspension and 16"borbet a's , the circumference of the 16's is smaller than the standard 14's not sure how much difference it make but revs seam higher at 70!

So I've got my b3 estate on Ta technics and want to have tracking and camber set, the guy at the Garage asked me what I want it set to as it might be hard to get it to factory as its pretty low, wondering what other people have set it to if at all as I cant find any info though Google!?

cheers

Thanks all, I think I'm gona leave it alone bar just getting running real nice, might look at engine swap down the line as I still have the g60!

Hi guys just wondering if anyone has done much to their 2.0 to get a little more out?
From what I can see their not worth doing much to but did hear you can pop a 1.8 cam in which give a bit more go!
I've got a k&N panel filter and cat back power flow exhaust!

Hi just wondering if I can use b3 coilovers on a b4?

cheers

Hi, just wondering what mod's you've got?

Yeah sadly I did have to give it to someone else to do but he is a g60 specialist! I probably could of got in done but might of struggled to set it up properly! I figured I'd get it done and then play later! Plus I've no space and live on a hill!

Cheers mate, they're borbet a's, 16" 7.5 front 9 rear! Might paint the centers black and polish the dish!

well its a tough one mate, it would be a shame to see another one broken as they're getting thin on the ground now, on the other hand those of us keeping them going are always on the look out for bits and bobs!
I guess you have to way up how much it owes you, how much you could get back as a project ...

Hi all, just wondering if anyone knows if they are the same?

Just wondering if there are any b3 guys in Brighton area? I went to power flow for and exhaust and guy said someone else had been in and asked about one for his Passat estate 20v turbo, where has the 20v b3 gone?!

So got my power flow exhaust today, from the down pipe back with the middle box removed, cost £380! sounds quite good! Here's a vid! http://youtu.be/fKwEG8jjZSc[/youtube]

Just to fill the cut out, might go smaller if it looks wrong!

Booked in for power flow next week, down pipe back with 4" tail pipe!

Yeah seen them on eBay just need the size so I get the right!?
