Here's my progress thread for my golf!

Firstly, Here she is! A 2002, Mk4 Golf Gti (1.8t AUM Engine)

Job from Today! Sump off, Cleaned & Oil pickup change! Common issue is blocked pickups, that's that sorted!

Here is my Forge Twinpass Intercooler, was a pain to mount BUT, much improved flow now!

And here's how it looks with some slight modifications to the lower Grilles.

Painted the rear badge to blend in with bodywork colour

Part De-badged, painted badge on

New APS Fuel pump installed! This was a little awkward to get back in to place, but well worth it for the fuelling overhead when it comes to it being tuned!

Flush Bora Vents in & Newsouth boost gauge with colours to match the OEM VW LEDS

Forge TIP Installed, Along with Forge 008 Recirc & Ramair Induction kit w/ Heatshield.

Ive Finally gotten around to Removing the SAI, N249, N112 & EVAP Systems, Simplifying it all with a nice catch can

Pulled out all of this

Now left with a nice simplified tidy engine bay (To be detailed)

FINALLY got a hold of some Bora sport gauges that arent for a diesel! so I get the proper rev range, really changed up my dash! nice & simple too!

Finally got my hands on a R32 Bumper in my colour, and the ever elusive GTI Badge (Genuine) from ebay for the MK4! Ive been lucky!

Needs the grills painting though....

Grills being painted a nice dark grey...

AND VOILA! Im so chuffed with it!

Had a new exhaust tip made by the same guys that built the rest of the Turbo back stainless system! Along with my new GTI Spoiler, this updates the car exterior a bit!

Gave the callipers a coat of paint, really adds a nice little detail!

More to follow...

She's pretty much ready for remap! Now looking into getting some visual things (R32 Alloys, R32 Front Bumper, Possibly an R Line rear bumper)

Hi mate nice build I'm doing similar to my 1.8t Bora. When you deleted the sai did you get any engine codes come up? I've got the resistors ready but I've seen mixed views on if the engine light will come on or not. Also how come you deleted the evap system? What made you choose a twin pass over single Pass . Cheers cant wait to see more progress

Thank you! So without resistors you do get codes for open Circuits from the N249, N112, SAI & EVAP. But WITH resistors in it cancels 3/4, you will still get the SAI (Incorrect Flow) code but that can be mapped out on your tune so it doesn't generate at all. I deleted the EVAP mainly to reduce the amount of things that can go wrong, that and I followed the popular Vortex guide which involves deleting EVAP & i just thought, Why not? And with my intercooler, I initially wanted a sleeper, so I went with a twinpass to hide behind the standard bumper nicely. Ive come to the decision that im not going to swap turbo so twinpass is pretty much getting the best out of a k03s without a big load of pipework running right across the bay. Nice and easy install too!

Sounds like your going in the same direction as me then for engine bay looks. I want a fmi thats completely hidden behind the stock grills because when people tend to look at boras they always assume its an pd ahahah. Yea my plan is to delete the sai just before it goes for a remap as the light would annoy me too much

Fitted a new charge silicon pipe too, didn't take pics, but another tick off the list!
