I was hoping this would be a tuned car as my recently purchased 1.8 vtec is a bit slow after my E46 330CD and Mk4 Golf PD150 mapped to 200bhp. My car is a 2011 and only cost £650, I have the cash to spend a good few hundred for more bhp. Performance is about the same as my 1987 Ford Sierra 2.0 GLSi I had in the 90's when I was 21. That was an ill handling car so didn't really want a great deal more power. It also looked like a Cosworth so that was cool, drivers would pull over to let me by.

Do you have slight vibrations on clutch pedal or maybe "hard shaking" clutch pedal after this modification? Some people say that their clutch pedal shakes hard after removing clutch damper and I'm just curious.

Really nice video, the only thing I think you missed was a nice long shot of the car to see how it sits, maybe a before and after, I guess anyone can look up a photo of a lowered TT though so not a big deal, but still, was waiting for that shot and it never came ;D

Hi there I am returning back to UK after being away for nearly 15 years. AND this is the car I am looking to purchase- a Mk11, as it seems this is the best example of the TT model. Now, I am not sure on a couple of things: Engine size - 1.8 (as it seems they mainly purchased for the wife, no sexist remarks just it seems they are and hence lower milage) or a 2.0 petrol? Manual or S tronic? Would like your comments . Would like a soft top and if I can get a white colour model then would like to fit a Navy blue colour roof (only because I think it would a bit more classy?). Now, my present vehicle where I live is a VW Beach Buggy with a Subura Impreza engine- seriously AND its my daily driver. Well come all comments . Thank you

No bother mate. It happens to the best of us. I've done two track days with very basic mods (lowering springs, better pads and brake fluids) and always ran with a quarter or 1 LTR overfill and have had no issues. Just made sure I kept an eye on the oil level after ever session.

Hey Sam, new subscriber here! Im pkanning to do the same as yourself but i have 0 mechanical background, just helped my dad in my young days do serives etc. but i really love the fn2 and want 5 doors as ive got a family! How did you tackle the engine mount situation? Im no welder either of course but if i can mock things up and get some help be great!
@sampaddyprojectz3 ай бұрын
Hey man, yeah it’s a great result at the end for performance and practicality! The engine mounts do line up bar one bolt on the chassis leg on the passenger side, the gear box mount and cross bar is the biggest hurdle as you have to remove the structural parts from the type R and weld them on, the subframe bolt up like for like so all good on the rear mount 🤙🏻
