Dizzie's 20vT conversion

[vixteris]

hey, i like to think that i helped pay for that new engine, in some small way atleast  

- i have a phat install that dont fit in my car  

[Dizzie]

it'll be putting out 230bhp and should be fairly reliable. I'm not anticipating any major break downs in the next few years.

I have to use a recirculating dump valve cos I'm using standard VAG management. if I wanted an atmospheric dump valve I'd have to use standalone and I've heard that isn't as good. I dunno. I'll just be happy to get it back.

vix, I'll sort your problem out soon.

Vix is it the neon furry dice??

[vixteris]

vix, I'll sort your probably out soon.

u'll do what  

i think u will have to anticipate some problems dizzie with the new engine.  u cant do something that drastic and expect it to b reliable anymore surely  

on the fluffy dice front, im looking out for some yellow and black ones, my black and white ones just dont go with the styling anymore  

[Golfgal]

Oh no!!

I'll keep an eye out for some blak and yellow ones

Did rich give u the fuel cap from that car yet?

[Dizzie]

it's only been mildly tuned though. removing the cat isn't really going to cause me any problems, but it does unlock some bhp. them putting on a decent air intake and small management tweaks. Probably less tuned than having it "revo'd"

y not?

if the job is doen properly then it should be fine?
surely?

[marcus123]

ahhh,

cant wait to see this beast in action

4k all in then?
engine and everything?

what a quality price!
midland vw based in warwickshire broke down engine conversions down to me like this, engine and everything up rated accordingly:

g60 conversion 2k
vr6 conversion  3k
1.8t conversion 4k

its gonna be one of those or im jus gonna buy a g60 straight off

[vixteris]

i just think its gonna take a while to get it all running as well as it can.  it wouldnt surprise me in the slightest if the cars back at designa dubs within the next 3 months being more finely tuned. im not saying DD are gonna do a sh!t job just that its complicated and problems are imo to be expected.

no fuel cap yet sarah, ill hassle rich  

[Dizzie]

midland VW quoted me ?3500 when I was getting my quotes ages ago.

The car proabably will be returning to DD in a couple of months. that's the norm with new engine just to check over how they're running, etc.
