VW Golf GTi Performance Upgrade

I had recently upgraded the turbo in my 13-year old Golf GTi to an APR K04 and also did an engine overhaul and rebuild. This has resulted in an increase in power from 211 PS to 281 PS, and a boost in torque from 314 Nm to 412 Nm! You can see the power curves in the dyno test I did today.

Now my car feels very responsive and more powerful!

Renewal of Driver’s License

Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, we were allowed to delay the renewal of our driver’s license. Nevertheless, since I was near the Post Office, I thought I’d drop by... It seems I didn’t need to bring along a photograph of myself as they reused the latest they had of me from my IC / myKad... Service was very quick as there was hardly a queue...

A trip to the Zoo

It seems I have been on a very long hiatus, and I'm not sure why, as I cannot remember what was the reason I stopped updating my blog. Somehow, I happened to stopover my blog recently and realised it had been neglected for so long. Anyway, last month I made a trip to Melaka Zoo for a photowalk and snapped a couple of animal pics. It was also a good exercise for me just walking in the outdoors under the tropical sun.
