Re: CupraCraigs 20v Project Reply #60 – August 20, 2021, 09:34:45 AM So its all in and works a treat. I have to take the brackets off and paint them black, then put all the trim back in now but thats just a minor thing to doIMG_20210819_213155 by Laxadams, on FlickrIMG_20210819_175337 by Laxadams, on FlickrIMG_20210819_175334 by Laxadams, on FlickrIMG_20210819_213216 by Laxadams, on FlickrIMG_20210819_213236 by Laxadams, on Flickr[MEDIA=youtube]I-zX8YKzDfs[/MEDIA] 1 Likes

Re: CupraCraigs 20v Project Reply #62 – August 20, 2021, 10:57:29 AM Yes, exceptional work!I smell a business opportunity, bound to be plenty of interest in such a professional install... get in there, before someone else does.

I did price up the loom creation and i can do them for just under £30 (cost) if i make a batch of tens. Not sure what a window loom would sell for really.But when you weigh up the liablity risks, its probably not worth the effort.

But then i converted the engine and loom so nothing is really too much effort now. Something to consider for sure

I'm sure with your thread on here and ClubGTI I wouldn't be surprised if others wanted to follow suit.

Re: CupraCraigs 20v Project Reply #68 – September 13, 2021, 11:19:50 AM well today i ordered a new downpipe from Trackslag. 3.5" into 2.5" for the exhaust. Why would you do this craig, i hear you ask.Well, originally it had a qpeng one and in the early days of modding the car, i had to trim the pipe at the exhaust connection end as it was too long... and i cut it a bit too short. Its never really been an issue, but last night it came loose, so i decided that for the cost, it was worth getting a new one (its also an upgrade) and making sure its a bit longer this time. Not only for a better fit, but also peace of mind that its done right.So if anyones after a 2.5" downpipe, i'll have one for sale soon. Great for conversion on a custom exhaust. 1 Likes

Re: CupraCraigs 20v Project Reply #72 – September 20, 2021, 09:20:33 AM ha sadly not. The change of downpipe has resolved some issues i never knew i had really. car feels lots better now, i think having the o2 sensor in a place with more volume and a bit further back might be helping things, but im not an expert, so its probably just in my head.
