Bought this Jan 2015 as a run about for a few months whilst I was fixing up my black Passat. However things took a turn and I ended up sorting this motor out and its now my daily. Its a 2005 PD130 AWX trendline which has now covered 147K miles. To date I have done the following:
- FK streetline coil overs - cheap and cheerful
- fitted a complete front arm kit (Borg & Beck)
- fitted a A6 all road top strut brace
- fitted a 32mm eibach anti roll bar
- had the 2 front wings replaced under VAG corrosion warranty
- replaced the drivers side black door frame trims
- fitted a passengers side window regulator
- fitted a stubby ariel
- replaced the alternator
- fitted BBS 18" alloys
- central exhaust box removed
- allard egr delete pipe
- ported and matched inlet manifold
- running a TD tuning box
- fitted front fogs
Before being lowered and the wings replaced
and how the car looks now....
Next jobs to be down:
- fit the spare CR1756 hybrid turbo I have
- fit 312mm front brakes
- tint the rear windows
- fit an fmic
- decat the downpipe
- fit the boost controller that I have
- possibly an uprated cam
The goal for the car is a reliable 200whp for everyday driving.
