Pd130 performance parts help!

[Christo227]

Okay so this is gonna sound incredibly stupid but here goes....

All my previous cars have come already modified by previous owners and I've never changed a thing about them but this time I've bought a completely standard PD130 ASZ MK4 Golf and I've ordered some parts of Darkside and I just wondering where I could take them to get fitted? I'm mediocre with a spanner but I've never replaced a side mounted intercooler or changed a clutch to a uprated version. Is there anywhere in particular (preferably near South West Region) that could do this for me? I understand the Labour will cost me a bomb but I don't have any mechanically minded friends haha. Cheers for any help for a newbie!

Cheers man! Probably worth enquiring about the intercooler too!

Stick to a VAG specialist, I would imagine they have all fitted numerous PD130 intercoolers etc.

Darkside are a well regarded tuning company for VAG diesels!

Look at some of their projects and you will see what they are capable of!

Weirdly enough they said they wouldn't be able to do the intercooler but would the clutch! Awesome yeah I'm in Bristol so I'll check the others out!
