Title: The R-Tech Mk4 GTI @ Santa Pod tomorrow (Super Pro Bushes GIVE AWAY)
Post by: RTechUK on 30 September 2011, 22:21
Now my car is running full power for first time (maybe last time)  300bhp 320lbft with water meth injection 50/50 and an extra 75bhp shot NOS at 1200psi taking my peak power close on 400bhp, we decide to take the day off tomorrow and spend a it on the drag strip at santa pod.

Just for a bit of forum fun I am going to give away a full set of MK4 2wd front bottom arm Super Pro Bushes for the person who comes up with the closest guess to my fastest 1/4 time and speed over the line. 

Only rule is that your post should be made before the time on my time slips and no editing of posts.

My last run at pod without nos and around 35bhp less power made 13.1s@ 108mph, this time last year just with the k04-001 13.8S @103MPH.

My AIM is 12.5s 115mph... :rolleyes:



R-Tech Mk4 Golf basic spec

AUM 1.8T THS Con-Rods
Stock clutch, stock gear box, stock diff
K04-001-023 hybrid
75hp Shot wet NOS with bottle heater
50/50 Mix of water 99.9% meth injection
380c injector
THS FMIC
TIP
Fuel pump
Stock AUM MAF
Milltek Turbo Back
Toyo R888s
Stock shocks and springs

Happy with the results but never cracked the 12.5s. :laugh:

 Best run was 12.6971s @ 113.92mph

In a bit I will have a look at everyones times which they posted up in the thread and find the winner of the Superpro bush kit. :smiley:


Too hot again, water meth injection for cooling didnt fully work.. which on my last run 12.7s ended up killing a spark plug, which means head off and inspection of the cylinder. :cry:  Also found the limit of the stock clutch and DMF, short shifted off the line in to 2nd and ended up slipping the clutch on every gear to give a 14.7s.. :rolleyes:  Plans for the winter is to keep the hybrid turbo, and fit a seat 5 speed TDI gear box with diff and an uprated sach clutch.



(James in the R-Tech big turbo AGU T304e- 411bhp managed a 12.3s @121mph.. :grin:)

The result of my water meth failing, and the reason for the puff of smoke over the line in my last run..  :grin:

Cylinder 3 melted piston crown and exhuast valve been consumed as fuel..lol   

IMO it would not of happened if the water had been cooling the cylinders as it should have been and the car was mapped for zero timing pull using detcan with WMI on., the reason all the other cylinders are 100% spot on and number 3 dead, it that number 3 is the closest cylinder to the turbo and has the shortest manifold running to the turbo. A  cylinder honnned out and another piston and valve to go in Tuesday, then fab an EGT sensor probe on number 3 runner of the manifold to montior whats going on.  I think I can say I know where the limit is of the stock AUM k03s manifold...lol  I am going for one more run at pod with the R-Tech K04001-023 hybrid turbo, the low comp pistons, 700cc+ injectors with twin scroll GT35R and one of a few in the uk running a Performance Quick Spool Valve .. :laugh: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I6ZCOTFET6s&feature=related

Just that one..lol  Like in the posts above it was expected... :smiley:  I am working on porting the stock manifold even more before the turbo gets put back on.   I have a cast stainless T3 manifold for the Gt35.. :grin:
