Yup such a good feeling.
Until it fires up and runs, it an expensive lump of "scrap" metal, now its come alive its worth a bit more.
You make it sound like I have only just started..... so many more good milestones to reach.
Quite chuffed as well as it is all VAG gear not honda or rover where there is a bit more information from other builders available.
Had my ECU sent away for re-chip and imoboliser disabled. So far it looks like that was a good fix.
Also chuffed as I had to make and design the entire wiring loom from scratch.
Now I just have to hook up some lights and see if the rest of the loom works as its supposed to.
I think i might be looking at a spring 2011 IVA.
