Well I use to have a puma, but after blowing a stupid amount of money for it to spit dummy out twice i had to start from ground zero again.
The puma:
The fresh start.
I've had this lil beaut since may this year, was rocking around in a green polo and managed to talk the guy into a p/x with a small amount of cash for this. It was completely standard bar exhaust/lowered. There reason I got it for a good price is that it is recorded as a CAT C but after a test drive and a good look round was happy enough.
I had a bit of a nightmare over the last few months as the n/s hub wasn't original, and since there a 3 types of driveshafts it took a long time to get the right one, then it still didn't fit, so in the end I got a complete strut and driveshaft of ebay, only for that driveshaft not to fit either hub either!!! Eventually manage to get a a complete set up from a local scrapyard for all of £40 bargain!!!
After giving it a full service and sorting out all the little issues it had, it now boasts:
4-2-1 manifold (Heat Wrapped by The sexy Mattyboy)
Decat
Magnex cat back
Raceland induction kit
Sparco strut brace (with dodgy paintjob
)Polished rocker covers
Comprake Quickshift
OMP WRC suede steering wheel
GTI 6 brakes and master cylinder and braided lines.
Lightweight C5 wheels wrapped in goodyear eagle f1's.
I ran it at york dragstrip with just filter and decat, and got a best time of 6.8 0-60, 15.21 1/4mile with room for improvement due to only launching at 3k all day not realising the strip was grippier in the afternoon. My times were quite abit better than most gti's on the day, i was 3rd fastest with about 20 running on the day.
Went to streetracers on Sunday and made 142bhp was very pleased
Got some more plans for it, but wont update till next year now due to xmas lol
Thanks to Becks for these pics
