Golf GTi mk 7 front bumper conversion

Post by hef355 »

I know ... it is a dilemma but on balance, I think i’m leaning towards a supercharger as Porsche already use this engine with a RUF unit. Other benefits for supercharger is better noise as turbo suppresses, probably won’t have to take the head off to reduce compression if im using a modest psi and it will need a far smaller intercooler if any ... Plus less lag, more torque and all parts are bolt on ... but i get your views on a turbo too so thanks fella ... hope i wont regret it lol

The noise is addictive - you will smile until you start watching that needle go down still you only live once
I miss the sound but I like the power more 😂😂😂😂

I've just joined the forum after picking up a Caddy last Sunday.

This Caddy is a thing of beauty. So much inspiration in one thread....

Absolutely love this, bookmarked the 4motion work to have a look at when i get up the road.

These projects were the reason i used to love the forums, almost gives me enough motivation to go work on my own. :lol:
