Must of cost a packet doing all that. Bet it goes like stink. Welcome oh and by the way ya motor looks awesome :evil:
-
Cheers matey,
It was not cheap but running at 1.65 bar (with more to go) it's certainly a handful :)
-
That's quite a list of mods you've got there :shocked:
Obviously a lot of effort, love and money lavished on this car. It shows, looks excellent :cool:
-
Cheers Buddy,
Yes it has took some time to get it to this state, Certainly puts a smile on my face every time I drive it, Sounds awesome too :) Hoping to take it too a few events this year too :smiley:
-
That is some list Andy, got any dyno prints you can post up? 400 on stock internals too.
Was it the low pressure (In tank) pump you replaced?

Yes mate it was the low pressure one in the tank that was replaced, Ran a fair few VCDS logs on it and having the dash AFR gauge plus EGT's etc really helps me keep an eye on things...
When i get my replacement GIAC file this week it will be going on the dyne again then so I will post a graph up....
I had a stage 3 REVO K04 before it was pulling 370 before, this i would say has another 30 or 40 hp on top of that now..
Lets see.
I know I am pushing my luck on a stock block but I will be making sure my torque is limited to 400 lb if the Turbo will produce that...

Nice, it must be an animal :grin:.

Nice, it must be an animal :grin:.
It is ! Why do you think I am running R888's on it now, No other tyres will make it grip... :grin:

Whats the story behind moving to a GIAC file?
-
REVO didn't not want to produce a file to delete the inlet manifold flapper and take into account the bigger compressor wheel on the hybrid. GIAC will do a file for the hybrid and flapper delete.. Hence the move
-
Awesome looking car mate, alot of effort gone into that! How do you find the quaife diff? Does it make alot of difference? Worth buying? Oh and welcome..

Its awesome mate, Well worth getting if you like to corner hard.. Gives a really good solid feel through the steering wheel as well...

Celery, what a name. Made me chuckle at work
-
That's a serious spec, my Gti was an animal at stage 2 spec so this must be flipping insane.
Good job :cool:
-
That's terrible.
Lucky for you, I have a stock white gti. I will happily swap with you so you can redeem yourself.... I insist... :laugh:
Do you have any videos? Would love to hear it.
-
I'm still dithering just going for a stage 1 remap being concerned with extra wear and stresses (I'm keeping the car long term ie 10 years)
Doubling the power..... Wow
Personally I'd always be waiting for something to break....
Respect to ya

Pity I missed you at Statller Andy. Steve was impressed with the turbo set-up and I guess I will have to take you out in mine another time. :angry:

Next time John, Dying for a ride in yours... Steve said how impressive it was... Deffo want one of those new boost controllers of you when Steve has fitted his, Boost from Throttle sounds good to me... May squeeze some more torque out of it mid range too :)
