I am still on the look out for a Golf, I have seen a nice one which has the following upgrades:

115 engine replacement, on 74,000 miles

130 Turbo and Injectors

Remap + Cobra Exhaust system, De-Cat

Side mount intercooler

Drilled/Grooved Discs and new pads

150 Intake and EGR Delete

Coilovers



Plus a few exterior mods. I am just curious as to whether this set up is OK for every day driving, Will it be reliable, Still return good MPG etc? Its had the cambelt done so thats good for a while.

What sort of power will it be running and will it be running it safely is my main issue.



Thanks

I suppose you have a good point.
The engine was on 104,000 and for some reason it had a replacement. Not sure if it was due to failure or he got the engine for e really cheap. Il have a sleep on it and re think in the morning.
Thanks for the replies.
