    Literally nothing wrong with that motor, sounds pretty sweet, it’s had a leaking injector probably for god knows how long , all adaptions , STFT aswell as LTFT are probably a mess hence why started a little rough and levelled out. Reset adaptions and go for a good old blast, Job done 👌🏻

    Having had a new Mk 5 R32 with a non resonated Milltek exhaust back in 2009, I think your engine sounds good to me. These are fantastic cars, & seeing you work on this good looking example brings back fond memories.
    I was very surprised at the cost of the fuel injectors, but at least the two you bought sorted out the problem.
    Looking forward to the next instalment of this 'restoration ' & keep up the good work! 👍🔥👍

    The only thing I know about compression was when my V8 A6 seemingly had none, or little, after months on a ramp, it needed a little oil down each bore to seal them up, or something.

    Don’t normally buy cars with Scottish registration plates as it generally means rust but that looks alright, would be worth removing the wheel arch liners and cleaning them out behind as these are common for wings rusting, even if they haven’t been up in Scotland. Well done! 👍

Will wait for second part. VR6s sound great with a loud exhaust, maybe you want to look into that lol.

    Sounded fine to me, I had a mk3 VR6 that had stood for 2 years near identical problems, luckily my Dad still worked for VW at the time so three injectors were "cheap" as was the assistance of a 35 year time served mechanic to assist.
    The advice was basically it's been stood ages, there is still shit in there and through the exhaust, don't go above 4th gear and blow the forker through . It worked. Those engines are bulletproof, i regret selling mine to this very day.

    Very common issue the injectors on mk5 Vr6, you can have them cleaned fairly cheap, i did it on mine when i had this exact issue, engine sounds fine its been bore washed with fuel and you would expect a lower compression. give it a good run with fresh oil, and do the compression test WOT to get the better readings. the reason it ran quiet was because you had the inlet pipe off the MAF on the original start. Build it back up jobs a good id say! nice work!

    Yes, good idea to change out the oil and filter before you attempt to start the motor. You may want to put some penetrant in the cylinders before you start it Incase the fuel washed the oil from the rings.

    I had vw golf 2005. Was alright once i replaced literaly everything on it. Interior buttons and steering wheel was still perishing and rust started showing. It only had a little over 50k on the clock. My suzuki liana 04 which i still have stored away as hit almost 185k and as been abused but interior still looks good no wear or tear anywear. Not one button flaking. I was very dissapointed with the golf. Paid £1650 for it and spent just under that in repairs in the first 2 years. My suzuki i paid £230 from a salvage yard. Cost me 130 ish for parts and m.o.t which was a bottom balljoint, a tire and new bolt for exhaust, passed every year for 6 years running. Only thing i replaced was clutch and thermostat. This is a very nice looking golf though.
