Well, haven't done much moddin'lately, just working on getting the mk4 reading for MOT, also have a tiny leak in the air-ride tank, so fixing that this weekend as well.

Also had a big set-back with the daily driving mk2 Polo



The engine stopped on my while driving, had to get me dad and his ever-running Toyota to tow me home if I get the mk4 MOT-ready this weekend, I hopefully have some time left for checking the mk2 totmorrow.

But, there's a bright side too to last week, got my grilfriend into buying her very one VAG-car

It's a 1998, 1,0 8v Seat Arosa, and it's as orange as f*ck! she totally got in love with the colour



Done under 100K kilometers, engine runs smooth as can be, was the old car from my bi-trubo'd mk4 mate's his little sister, so the car has always been taken good care off! 15" rims, bit lowered, new model Arosa rear-lights, Remus backbox, K&N induction, nice thing to start with for her

that seat is nice. bit lower and rid ofthe bump strips and colour coding handles will make it look sweet. maybe spacers to make it look wider and meaner.

Well, haven't been here recently, lot of news onthe car, but to keep it short, here's the biggest recent news for the mk4:






It's the total injection system from a Honda CBR 900 RR motorcycle, with enginecode sc50, or commonly better known as throttle bodies.
So the new set-up will include 4 throttles sizing in 42mm in diameter, as to the sh*tty little throttle of 35mm in diameter I'm currently running on.

Will it fit? It sure as h*ll will, after some custom work of course, even the boys over at Sorg Motorsport use these exact throttle bodies on there track-polo-engines Sorg Motorsport and if they can install these, I might as well give it a go then

Only problem is, is that my original VW motormanagement can't run on these, so I will have to start saving money to afford me a stand-alone motormanagement system, will cost something, but surely will pay itself off in the end

Like the latest pics of the polo and i'm sure you'll get that arosa looking sweet too. Liking the TB's mate, my mates looking into this but doesn't know which ones to run yet.

Will you have to run a manual choke with these TB's? Or will the new ECU allow you to manage that?

eheh jarno.. always at work on your polo..

The stand-alone management I'm planning to get includes a cold-start-aid-function, here's some more info about it --> http://kms.vankronenburg.nl/ (sites seems to be under up-date, but hopefully start to feature the manuals again soon)

Thank you very much for that link m8!! Think I'm gonna send the owner a request for that CAD-drawing for the inlet-manifold gasket

And yes, always working on the mk4 also bought meself a extra set of rims, got my BBS GTI's refurbed and bought me a new dashboard + doorcards, to better fit the outside colour of the car

a well, keeps me busy and of the streets ai?

Nuts Jarno, how would you feed air to each throttle though out of curioscity?

Couldn't you use the normal sensor of the VW throttle body and just re-map the engine or is life not that simple?

hi jarno, do you have any more pics of the polo that is next to yours? the purple coloured one?

any close ups of that back bumper and where the lights are etc..?
