Wintermute was my inspiration.

There was a guy that was on riceboypage.com, a forum I used to belong to, that went by the name Wintermute. I found out that he had a MKIII like myself. I saw his vid and it inspired me to mod mine. Where is this he? Is he still in the MKIII scene? Who was he?

I saw that, but that doesn't mean it's him. He could have had it saved on his computer and uploaded it later for old school purposes. Was it him?

Plus this vid was uploaded Dec. 2010. The actual video is old. Maybe 1997... 1998. I can't remember.

by the cars shown on the road, mid to late 90's is apparent. Also, notice the low mount turbo manifold? Looked almost like an old Blitz unit

I"m not trying to insult the guy, but yeah... the song doesn't really fit him. Valvetrain noise was horrendous on his car. I just like the fact that he modded his car pretty good for those times.

He was running a T4 set up, electromotive TEC2, and lots of other custom goodies back then. Hardly anybody did that back then on a MKIII. Now, running a T4 with a standalone is common. But back then it was something to look up to.
