Things I've done, in the middle of and want to do
« on: November 19, 2015, 08:15:32 PM »
I thought I would share some of the stuff I've done to my GTI.  First off, I've replaced the stock voltage regulator with SHINDENGEN MOSFET type regulator.  I've bad experience where stock regulator went on my people 250 and took out wirings and battery with it, so this time I am Pro-active.  I am in the middle of finishing up LED lights all around with LED signal mirror from a Yamaha, waiting on LED flasher to stop the hyper flash.  I've also did a custom 5" k&N filter for not having to by anymore stock paper filter anymore.  I went with 15g Dr. pulley slider instead of replacing the whole face plate with different weights, because I believe the stock pulleys will be sufficient.  Also replacing the clutch and bell with upgrade together with rear movable face plate for more fun off the line. 

For the future, adding brake pads when the time comes EBC Brakes SFA498HH, SFA388HH, I want lithium battery, GPR full exhaust and some kind of after market shock with rebound adjustments.  Looking for 400i engine to swap in :P (costly)

regulator, quick note for those that did some LED lights upgrade.  True it will use less power, but your stock regulator will work that much harder!! and hotter.

 aftermarket coil wouldn't work if the primary resistance is not around 3 to 4 ohm...

I like that exhaust-is it hard to replace the exhaust-or does it just come right off?
