tommywilsonuk Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Heya guys.Righto I've been skulking around these boards since xmas when I acquired a 96 Glanza Turbo.Gained it because A freind couldnt afford to run, Snapped His hand off..Basically about me, Im an Ex VW enthusiast.. Used to make Mk2 Golfs my life..Since then ive joined the army and have got this little toy to play with..Mods im aware of (im stupid when things are new to me) are some Tom 16's by the looks..Full through exaust system.. which fkn blows already... sorted next weekend..blitz dump valve.. all of that buisness.. Hoses have been swapped over and all.. which app makesit boost through gears 1 and 2.. niiice.Anyways.. Look forwards to reading posts and well now im brave.. replying to them aswell although I wont make any sense at all.. And ill probably be asking why this has hapened etcheres the motor off the forecourt my freind bought it from..fresh from the land of the rising sun..obviously the paint has a lil bit of winter dust on it now..but its nice isnt it.

Guest Enzo Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 lol those are tall questions man, but to entertain you, what can be doneanything if you have the wonga- 300bhp and beyond infact.what should be done?if your on about tuning then your essential breathing and cooling mods should all be there before you start molesting the boost by sorting out the fualing.what should i not do?getting the car all neded up would be abit shit, apart from that dont hold the temptation to fit a fual cut defender, and sort out the fualing before turning the boost up past fual cut,if you have any other questions just ask bud Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tommywilsonuk Posted January 31, 2008 Author Share Posted January 31, 2008 wheres the best place to gain parts and all of that kind of gear?with a site like this comes to pretty good places to sort out your car..with regards to nedding my car ...

MARCUSep91 Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 welcome to the club mate and nice v by the way Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Enzo Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 yea toy tuning, can be foundherebreathing and cooling,ive just read that you have a straight through so thats part of the problem away already, the cat is very restrictive to the turbo also, so a decat from sikilamart here is a good place to start and u will notice a difference with it,to get the turbo goin at full chat you need to get it to shove out a bar of pressure then your left with a car that will blitz most things on the road up to the magic ton. to do that properly ul aproximately need 1-1.5k at the moment. requiring better cooling with an uprated intercooler of some sorts, and a decent manifold along with some way of regulating boost and fual pressures.the ct9 is quite a small turbo so ul be reducing the life of it by running a bar constantly(180-200 @ the fly aprox), but if it goes and when you could just upgrade it to something else for even more power Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Noeld30 Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 How can you tell the wheels are fake?Also, Are rota grids just a cheap replica? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Calum122 Posted February 1, 2017 Share Posted February 1, 2017 How can you tell the wheels are fake?Also, Are rota grids just a cheap replica?Yeah they are cheap replicas, but they are still a good wheel. I made the mistake of buying Rota Grids thinking they were the beez neez, but that was before I knew the crack. They are still a nice wheel, just accept that they are copies.
