You missed out my engine >:(

[bad_cab]

:-? whats that then

[Shamrockez]

The 90bhp TDi engine....

[Kimmi]

consider ur hand well and truly slapped! ;D

[bad_cab]

;D i didn't do the old slow ones ;) sorry ;D

[Shamrockez]

Oi less of the slow thank you! :P

Anyone who's been in a cruise with Robbie knows he can be damn fast when he wants! Ask Whitebug - he didn't believe he was a 90!

[bad_cab]

:D i bet you have a heavy right foot like me then cos my 1.6 shifts but i only get 20mpg ::),and i only had info on 2005 model bugs ava from when i bought my cab to post up for peeps , can it be saved ? on the site it might be good info for pos new bug owners that come onto evvo site :)

[Shamrockez]

I'll put it in the engine forum as a sticky for you :)


Heavy right foot.. yes - bad MPG, no ;) why'd u think I got a diesel? ;D

[bad_cab]

;D wish i still had my gt tdi bora at times ::)because my bug drinks like a fish :)

[Shamrockez]

Oooh GT TDi - wish I could afford the insurance on one of those ;D

[bad_cab]

:o cheaper than my 1.6 cab, £640 cab and bora was £582 fully comp (chipped to 190bhp ;))didn't tell them about the chip when it got nicked :-X

[imported_admin]

Wish they would stick my 2.0 GT TDI engine in a bug now that would be sweet espesially with the new 170bhp engine :) V5 Sport bhp in a TDI [smiley=tekst-toppie.gif]

And remappable (if thats a word) to nearly 200bhp [smiley=evil.gif]

[Shamrockez]

Oh yes!!!! Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooosh! :D Would it fit tho? Apparently the TDis have to be mouted low down cos of the shape of the bonnet - I dunno if Robbie would take a bigger one.... he scrapes the sump enough as it is! :-/

[Blue_Smoothie]

Oi less of the slow thank you! *:P

fast............ :o ;)

[Shamrockez]

Not fast compared to yours..... :P

[bad_cab]

funny saying that tdi's are quick,i took my bora down the strip at santa pod and the guy in the box joked about me being in a diesal ::) but he shut up when i whipped the 944 porsche in the next lane ;D the fastest time i got on the day was a 15.99qtr @82mph 8-), that day i raced and beat ,944,306 xsi,escort rs turbo,mk 2 golf gti,the only thing that beat me and only just was a saab 900 turbo that was tuned ::),also company at that show had a tuned mk4 golf tdi that run 14's :o now thats quick :)

[Shamrockez]

Modern TDis are fast! :D Old diesels are not... lol

[antix_v2]

Would mine be considered quick?

[Shamrockez]

The 2.0 or 1.8?

[antix_v2]

The 2.0 or 1.8?

1.8t... Just wondered if it compares or if it'd get whooped.....

[Shamrockez]

It'd be quicker than all the other engines except the V5 - till you remap it ;) which yours is, isn't it? Then it would be faster!
