2nd Baby Steps: New Blitz Spec Nur & New Piping

While waiting for ‘the package’ to reach my doorstep, I’ve to fulfill couple of prerequisites and that includes new catback exhaust. So happen that I’m on leave for couple of days, to make the most of my boredom agenda I called Ah Heng for an appointment, today.

After short rounds of negotiations, I’ve decided to go for new custom 2.5” stainless steel piping and new Blitz Spec Nur universal muffler. The works started from 1100 until 1630. Typical Ah Heng's attention to detail just like the intercooler job couple of years ago. And I was lucky that Pocong was the only customer they had!

 

 ~Tanya sama Pocong apa sebab goyang ... nanti jawab Pocong Spec Nur dah nak datang~....

 If it's good enough for Skylines, Silvias and Subarus, it should be good enough for VW I think...err

Started work at 1100 and completed circa 1630. Typical Ah Heng's attention to detail, luckily Pocong was the only customer that day

 New 2.5" stainless-steel piping all the way to the end

 

New muffler placed far enough to the left just like JDMs

 

 Kiut miut Polo with muffler tip big enough to barbeque couple of mice...some say big enough for a cat

A German car, manufactured in South Africa, aftermarket parts mostly from USA, tuned by Canadian, styled to be Japanese and modded by Malaysians :P

Typical Ah Heng’s Mojo

You see, I was only supposed to fetch the Pocong this morning and enroute for slaving activity on this non-working day. But it turns out I had to spend the entire day at Ah Heng’s for his team to complete the work and troubleshoot issues of the new add-ons. Yet, I’ve no regrets because it was worth in the end.

And I won’t beat around the bushes anymore so here’s the list:-
1. Custom FMIC – Used Evo3 intercooler, all-new custom piping from turbo to intercooler and intercooler to manifold, plus relocation of DV.
2. Open-pod K&N filter with custom heat-shield.
3. Custom 2.5” catless downpipe.

Yup, typical Ah Heng and his crew mojo, awesome touches on every single thing making what I’ve paid twice the bargain! No kidding! As for the drives, well, what I can tell though there’s a slight (very slight) lag of 300-500rpm for the turbo to spools but once the revs past 3k all the way to 5.5k, the car pulls with fatter torque figures and more rush feeling at high revs. I just can’t wait to get the whole thing settled down and visit GT for another dyno exercise :)

2.5" downpipe locked and loaded on Friday

It's as noisy as stock so no complains...

Some adjustment on the inlet/outlet needed, if Evo 7/8 intercooler of the same size, it would be ideal

80% of the job completed on Saturday morning

AH relocated the DV to the front-left of the engine bay for more cooling

Amazing work on custom heatshield

The old Evo 3 intercooler seems to be working well which defies its age

AH managed to make a hole when I didn't think it can be done

Got to love the welds done by the Myanmar national staff, reminding me of seeing these things in the US

Pocong full of blues hahaha

Initially I couldn't flat on the throttle because they've forgotten to include the boost sensor but all is well :)

Tadaa...
