And so we begin

VRK
Forged pistons & Rods
LSD
Lightened Flywheel
Re worked cylinder head
GT28 RS Turbo
New Clutch
Dump Valve
Air Filter
Intake & Delivery Pipes
Intercooler
3" Exhaust
Rear Anti Roll bar
ECU Upgrade
Koni Springs & Dampers
Viggen Grooved Discs ( Front & Rear )

The work was carried out over the last 7 months in bits and peices, its only now that I look through all the paperwork that i see how much was done.

No idea what the power figures are but she absolutely flies :-)

Two Questions...

1- How much did this all cost? are we talking 350+BHP

2- With the cost of the car and all the parts would it not have been more cost effective to just go and buy an audi S4 convertable???
