Is this the strut that sits underneath & near the engine? i've got a mate who has one on his mk4 golf & its a total nightmare...scrapes on everything...how low will it sit ??

it only sits as low as the engine does so should be fine just cant get the funking bolts off to get it on! and dont have access to airtools so dont know what to do!

Take it to a garage and ask nicely if they could use an air tool to loosen them up, then tighten back up with hand so you can get to work on it at home.

Cooler look the business........kinda wish i went for a uni cooler now as they look 10x better than the Forge 1 i'm running

thats why i got it didnt like the way the forge one looked and theres no competition on price just couldn justify over 500 quid

didn get round to doing it i was just in a cant be arsed sort of mood got it jacked up and then saw the size of the hole i had to get my arm through to work in and decided it was a job for another day!

havn't sorted my running issues but think the culprit is a loose baffle in my cnetre box probably a cracked weld :(
