perhaps i need to.........narrow my horizons on the whole power increase. it looks like i cant get much from my motor without serious bucks and whatever way i go i have to keep going that route. i.e. its silly buying throttle body and cams if i eventually plan on getting a sc (hence my silly plan i explain later on)

my motor when working did make me smile every time i drive it. hence me not being to bothered about more bhp (more mpg wouldnt go a miss though) this all still depends on whats actually gone wrong and wether its worth keeping the engine. could be a silly 2 minute job (fingers crossed) or maybe a 10 hour job that isnt so......bad which i think leaves plenty of scope in the budget to do other things. maybe a new sensor to increae mpg etc

im gonna drop a naff bombshell and say id kinda like to get an electric water pump. just becuase it doesnt seem expensive or complicated to install. i like its potential for increased cooling capacity. releasing some bhp, removing the prang of sitting in traffic on a hot days, quicker warmup tempretures, plus a few others. basically i wouuldnt mind trying one out, yes i know the risks of when it brakes big trouble. and yes i know ill get about 5% bhp gain if that and the same in mpg gains.

but in the long run its less of a no goiing back route as other methods and if prooved reliable (or even better than standard pump). it has an easier possibility of transfering to any other engine or engine modification i get in the future. if my engine is cooled more effectivley from it, it should in theory improve a s/c cars reliability?

what

Im still suprised so many people on a gti 6 forum are telling me not to spend any money on a gti6. Can anyone else suggest other areas to investigate that will be easy? Thanks again guys

thanks for the info ill get round to doing so after ive finished inspecting the inside or your mom with my cock

no worries ill leave it alone spare a good clean, i get my weekend back now cant wait to find out now what was wrong and get my car back to normal. I may steer clear of any performance increases.in hindsight i was more than happy with the car and i know a better condition engine with all the sensors etc working properly can can only mean the car gets better. Do you know when your collecting it? thanks for the info[/ put a pair of twin 45 carbs on throw all your sensors away put on a dizzy and away you go car running sweet and a end to your problems and it wont cost you anywhere need anywhere near 3 k

Are you planning on keeping the car for a long time?
If so, spend as much of the 3.5k as your comfortable spending

Good engine, cambelt pump fluids etc - £750
Rebuilt gearbox - £200??
Stainless exhaust - £150/£200
Better suspension setup - £600 (have you already done the wishbones etc)
Decent tyres on some refurbed wheels £450/£500

That's what I would do anyway
