    TIP Install - Sydney

    Hey guys, a mate has recently bought a Polo GTI (06 model) and has picked himself up a TIP.

    Anyway, he assumed - wrongly - that I would like to install this for him as a "favour", but after it taking about 5hrs for me to do my Forge one recently I am not interested in going through the frustration, loss of skin, blood and temper that occurred any time soon.

    So what I am after is somewhere in Sydney he can take it along to and get it fitted.

    EDIT: Also, he is supposed to be registering on here and introducing himself - although if it takes him as long as it took to get the car he'll be here next year

    Is he in the inner west? You could try Jules who is a local ex dealer mechanic - 0405 080 488.

    I told my mate to come over on our way out into the city, told him it would take 30mins max.

    It took 30mins to clean the cuts and wipe the grease off my hands, the install took about 3hours. Don't know how mechanics do this sort of stuff everyday.

    I did mine twice in a week...Oh, the pain!! Had to change the hose clamp around the turbo inlet...Did manage to do the second time in less than 2 hours though, but its something I don't want to do again!!
