Today I played with vinyl. Wrapping, who woulda thunk?

Looks really good, you can see it's wrapped in places, but you've got to look at the right spots to find it. The cage still needs a diagonal main hoop bar and then the rearward arms, so I'll peel off the areas to be welded then just patch them up with more vinyl!

This is hopefully one of the next steps, should net about 350hp and be quite reliable.

That IS quite the set-up!
Some of those parts look familiar as my daily is a 1.8 5V (not turbo) and I run the VDCS diagnostic for it. The logging is very cool to live happening actually. Maestro7 I recently read about, funny enough I now see you getting it to tune the stock ecu. Very cool! Let me know how that works out for you!

Thanks for the update!

The sad story is that I've already spent almost $3k on a standalone fully adjustable system that I'm sure you would just love. Trouble is that I can't spend enough brain cells to full understand the system so every time I do any change it has to go back to the dyno. It's NEVER run well, especially cold, and I'm just tired of dealing with it. A modded stock ECU will be able to keep up with a lot of changes and also use the knock sensors to keep it safe. Anyone want a 034 Motorsport IIc standalone ECU?
