Hurdy's Golf .:R - project 600bhp.

[Hurdy]

Do you reckon you can get an 'on the road' 0-60mph time of 3.5s or under?

 

I'll certainly try.

Once I have the WMI on then I reckon 3.5s to 60 is possible. Once the Loba Turbo is on it should be around 3.3 seconds to 60 as Stertman Auto's have already done it.

I should bloody well hope so!

So what can you do to get under 3.0 seconds? Nitrous?

HPA/HGP do a twin turbo 3.6 V6 that will do 0-62mph in 3 seconds - 700+bhp!!

So a LOT of work really.

Mental times! Make sure you keep up to date on vagcars will hopefully see it one day!

GIAC released their stage 2 map yesterday. Their stage 2 map is the equivalent of Revo stage 2+. It was developed on GIACs own in-house Golf R, with just the normal bolt ons of....

Milltek full TBE
Autotech hpfp internals
Modified Forge Twintake


I was lucky enough to try this map over the weekend and I must say I am very impressed with it. It revs out to the redline swiftly and smoothly and without any hint of hesitation. The pull is strong and is easily faster than my Torque limited Revo set-up. 100mph comes up in under 10 seconds and I reckon low 12's at the Pod are easily achievable on this set-up.
I went out with Steve Jr from Statllers as GIAC asked for some maf logs on the hammer map that was on before stage 2 and then some logs on stage 2.

The Hammer map made 265g/s and on the dyno made 347bhp and just under 350lbft

The Stage 2 map made 296g/s and on the dyno made 379bhp@6480rpm and 360lbft. The 360lbft of torque held for almost 2000rpm rather than just being a peak figure, and then dropped off to 320lbft@6000rpm.

The car is also running the GIAC stage 3 DSG software and runs supremely well with the stage 2 engine map.

Overall I'm glad I made the move to GIAC and will stick with them from now on.

Any questions, ask away

You'd better change your 'sig' then 

Fantastic effort bro, really pleased you've got what you want from the motor. Can't wait to see this motor a few months down the line. It's the most captivating thread on this forum imo.

Top work as always Hurdy, top work.

Alloys and tyres went on today. I decided to go for gloss black to match the trim on the front rear and wing mirrors of the car. 

Team Dynamics Pro Race 1.2's - Gloss black - 8"x18" - ET45 - 9kg a corner (My OEM Talladega's are over 14kg a corner!  )

Tyres fitted

Goodyear Eagle F1 Assymetric 2's - 235/40/18Y - 95XL

A couple of pics - sorry about the dirty car!





Initial impressions are.....

That the steering is definitely improved - feels quicker and a little lighter
The tyres are quieter
The deeper sidewall gives an improved ride quality
The suspension feels quicker to react to undulations and doesn't crash quite as much as before

All in all a successful mod.

As said in the MK6 section...

Looking good John, the right choice in tyres...

Just bought all the bits I need to sort out the suspension.

Ordered/stashed ready to go on......

Bilstein B16 PSS10's - had these on the Golf ED30 and they were superb.
Whiteline heavy duty droplinks - a new addition not tried before, but worthwhile as the R is heavy.
Powerflex full polybush front and rear kits - Takes the remaining slack out of the suspension and last much longer than the OEM saggy rubber ones.
Whiteline Anti-lift Kit - Help my launches a little more.
H & R Front and rear ARB's - Should help me get a little more oversteer in the car and cut out the car leaning in cornering.
THS engine mounts - will keep the engine stable under load, so no rocking engine and better transmission of power to where it should go....the wheels.

Now brakes...hmmmmm.
