Lots of excellent gm rebuilt kits available I'd rebuild with new race grade valve body and never look back

You upgrade the hairdryers to support more power?

Aha!
What reader are you using?

Just some small modifications, there isn't real much to do apart from swapping for new better flowing units that are in the newer beemers.

The biggest gain will be from boost. These should be good for 12-13psi over the stock 7psi.

Galletto and a supplied cable, I also have vagcom and mpps as well but haven't needed to use them. One bench harness I made up and a cheap off the shelf Audi cable I found online as reference.

@jb1986
Where did you source the rebuild kits from?

Just eBay. There were some nicer even more expensive ones on there that came with billet wheels which would have pushed the project in to further "it's not a cheap project anymore" territory.

Also changed the brake lines all round as the front ones were cracked. Cleaned up the associated areas as well.

@jb1986 you think about just turning this into a build thread?

Yea maybe. There's nothing left to do though. It's all perfect now. I'll rename the thread or something if it goes any further.
