You're of fine V.A.G. stock!
What sort of effect has the remap had on the power output?

LOL that was a very difficult mod indeed, only downside is it effects top speed due the wind resistance, also regular watering can be a hassle

Yeah, not the most aerodynamic mod!
Take extra care when washing, the soapy water might kill it!

You could get a nice yucca on the dash as well. I might turf my bonnet & roof thinking about it...

**lazy_boy** · 23-07-2008,03:49 PM

Sweet you could take it all the way on the bonnet and put a little golf hole through it, air filter below for fresh air, then pull over for a pitch and putt if you got bored

Cool! It'd be like something off Pimp My Ride!

**lazy_boy** · 23-07-2008,04:01 PM

Hmmmm never quite understood that pimp my ride, more like turn my Nissan Bluebird into a wanna be rappers necklace with a baseball court in the boot, so everyone will laugh at me for A) jumping round like a tw*t after seeing how you destroyed my car and B) For giving you my car in the firstplace

That really does 'swear' me off as well! It's like this expectation to completely over-react, seems almost rehearsed to me. You got to scream & woop like a proper knob!
It'd be ace if someone just said "it looks crap, but it back how it was" in a sombre way as possible. Now that would be entertaining! You got to laugh at Westwood though, I still don't know whether he's tongue-in-cheek or not, I don't think I want to.
