The 16v is finally in & the floor is fixed (I bought another Mk2)

[@StixGarage]

Loving it LL, this story reminds me of your 1.8t Mk2 aka once traction hits you make up the lost time. Great progress ...you are inspiring a rebirth of Mk2 GTIs in CPT...everyone wants one now, even me😊

[@lowdl]

The prices are already going up. Lol. Hopefully it doesn't get too crazy. I want a few more. 🤣

[@teamphashash]

Best comment😂😂

[@kyleg4296]

Great Save bro!...glad the floor is sorted and you're back on track, itbs noises here we come😍😎😎👂🧏‍♂🎷🎺

[@lowdl]

It can't come soon enough. 🤣 It's been a process. But a good learning curve.

[@clintonphilander6595]

Beautiful bro, cant wait for the next video🙏🙏🙏always nice seeing your videos bro(this is clinton with the white polo playa) 🙌🙌🙌🙌

[@lowdl]

I know exactly who you are Clinton 😅 Glad you're enjoying the content.

[@tashreeq_SA]

Mk2's will always be my favourite gen of golf. Biased because my dad had a gti when i was young.

[@lowdl]

It's those core memories that mark us. My dad had a Jetta while I was growing up and I think it's made me a Mk2 guy.

[@grantfredericks62]

Thanks for the content LL, I always enjoy it. I love the “Potte”. One question though, is t the Potte too close to the radiator??

[@lowdl]

It is at the moment but we will be moving it soon. It's mounted in the stock location for a 8v engine for now.

[@jasonswartz3016]

Nice update video.. the bay is looking really good as well. Quick question where did you get thise FTF fittings fuel lines and fuel pressure regulator. Need something like that for my 20v

[@lowdl]

Fittings and lines is from Flat4 and the regulator is from Fury.

[@itsjay88]

Good to see things coming together. What ecu you plan on using?

[@lowdl]

I've got a standard dicky for it now. It works for what I need it to do right now. I might go Ecu Master on it later on because I'm comfortable with it.

[@faizelvarnicker9020]

Build looks good i just want to know seeing that ram tubes so close to that shroud wont that affect you performance on those two cylinders sucking in all that heat from the radiator and wont shorter tubes be a better option with a with some duct leading to a bonnet cutout i know that does not sound appealing and it wont be for most. That looks like it might hurt those two cylinders alot i dont know much about N/A but i do know that cold air and better airflow improves performance in any car.

[@lowdl]

It's going to be fine. It's not ideal but it won't be a problem. I've run my previous setup like this and it was okay. Uninterrupted airflow is ideal but it requires a lot more money. Lol. A bonnet cut out in that location works the opposite way. It actually doesn't really suck air in because under the bonnet the air pressure is higher than above. So that's a good place to put a vent and not a duct. I could do some sort of duct from the front and face it towards those two itbs but honestly they will get enough air on its own and shorter ram tubes won't really help. The current setup isn't final either, there will be way more space for the itbs and the filters I'm going to run once it's done.

[@VWPirates]

@@lowdl Remove the front engine mount and fit one at the back then lower the radiator.

[@lowdl]

@@VWPirates Lol. What? There's already a rear engine mount in the Mk2. So I'd have two rear mounts...? That front mount doesn't need to be removed to lower the radiator. There's space for it because there was a AC radiator in front of it before. It just needs new mounting holes and brackets for it to be secure.

[@T-Tspares]

Getting there surely... if I had known.. i broke up a mk2 jetta in December threw the body on the scrap floor was solid owell thats a pity could have saved a few pennies

[@lowdl]

That's unfortunate. Would have been great just to get a floor but this Jetta has given me some other parts I didn't know I needed.

[@T-Tspares]

@@lowdl that's always the case and thats how i got into the business of selling spares atleast ull make a few bucks back selling off the rest of the parts

[@T-Tspares]

[@lowdl]

@@T-Tspares Okay cool. Where are you based? I haven't quite figured out how I'm going to make money back from this car but hopefully I can make some and get rid of the rest. It's just taking up space at the moment.

[@T-Tspares]

@@lowdl im based in mitchells plain and its will probably be best if u knock it up and sell off the parts however the doors always take forever to sell

[@247_ily]

Awesome content as always, motivation for me to get my 16v sorted

[@lowdl]

This project should be good motivation for you. 🙌🏽 Get that 16v sorted. 🙏🏽

[@Die_Dylan]

Love your video's, do you have any 16v knuckles for sale?

[@lowdl]

Thank you very much. And no, I don't have anything 16v for sale. I try and keep as much as possible. Lol. Never know when I might need it.

[@tazwillovermeyer7827]

Been waiting on a video for so long lol❤😂

[@lowdl]

I've been waiting to finish it for so long. 🤣 Started filing this at the beginning of December. 🙈

[@heinrichdire8020]

Finally 16v content 😂😂

[@lowdl]

Lots more coming. 💪🏽

[@heinrichdire8020]

I think I'm more excited than anybody else on this channel...

[@heinrichdire8020]

By the way I've been meaning to ask what's her name Gona b..

[@lowdl]

@@heinrichdire8020 I think I'm going with Mia.

[@NehemiaJaptha]

Hi Lorenzo u maybe by any chance have a cli wheel?

[@lowdl]

Unfortunately not. Maybe there's one for sale on marketplace.

[@achmatmohamed515]

I live not too far away from the guy you bought the jetta from

[@lowdl]

My second car from that area. I bought my other GTI in Bontas as well.

[@westcoastking4467]

Love your vids

[@lowdl]

Thank you 🙏🏽

[@kenrossaukrsa]

Is that the KR engine

[@lowdl]

It's not a KR head. I think it's a 9a head (051) with a 2e bottom end.
