These shots are all very HDR processed, however this is still one time that I feel the effect worked in the favour of the car :)
So let me introduce you to this 106 GTI.
It also had the "go" to match the appearance, there was the usual exhaust system upgrades which consisted of stainless steel manifold, de cat & cat back.
You also had the induction kit, allowing for better breathing for the engine.
So far all pretty much standard upgrades really for anyone into their cars...
But this had something else, & that something else was cam work, paired with a custom ECU & remap allowing this little French 1.6 hatch back to produce 155bhp at the flywheel, not bad at all for a car that only weighs in at 900kg.
An absolute monster that punched well above its weight, you'll have to believe me that this thing was quick, with the handling to match, an incredible machine.
I always enjoyed taking pictures of it, & I was sad to see the owner move on from it, but at least it has been captured here for us to remember it as it was :)
The full set of pictures taken of this 106 GTI can be found on my flickr here.
Thanks for looking!
