| Project
"B5.5" |
General
Goal:
To upgrade the power-plant, suspension, stereo and
looks of the vehicle to our liking, yet to be able to
use the vehicle as an everyday driver. |
Part
I: The
"Have To" Mods
Here you'll see and read about the list of what we thought were the crucial modifications that had to be
done first! |
Part II:
Further 1.8T enhancement
Here you'll find out and read about how we squeezed a
little more performance out of the 1.8T power plant. |
Part
III: Mobile Audio
Here you'll find out and read about the mobile
entertainment system that we installed in our project
car at the Image Dynamics facility. |
