as promised pictures of the dyno run!!!!!

rear wheel drive (utilising A4 parts) has often popped up in a conversation or two it wouldnt take to much work...... plus i dont really like to follow thats why i went with the 2.0L so perhaps a lighteight rear wheel drive monster it might be........

funny you should say that .. im really favouring towards dropping the engine and box into a well sorted mk1 ... who knows what it will be like then..power to weight and all that

hi all i really cant believe the comments thank you all ... i will try and answer all i can an hopefully it will be ready for the GTI spring festival. The car is currently off the road because its just blown its second 02A so its going for 4X4 and to compensate the added weight i have to opt for 50bhp of nos but it has to have 4 X foggers as opposed to one (because of the throttle bodies) and progressive boost etc etc etc so it might take some time and money before its ready but im hoping. as far as the winipeg centres go they were off a big brake kit for a type R the centres were machined to fit the diameter of the discs an so on ... the dust plates need to be removed and you might need custom spacers depends what offset the rims are etc etc etc the steering rack is a new vag item no need to uprate the lock to lock as i still have power steering and the whole chassis doesn't have an original bush anywhere ......

more pics.....

cheers for the remarks i will put a pic of the dyno results when it was mapped it sais 236bhp @8000rpm but with the new mocal oil cooler and custom exhaust and some more magic from Derek at DS motorsport we now have 242bhp @ 8250rpm motor is atestament to the build as it has shed 2 gear boxes so far...... but the engine just keeps on revving it really sounds the nuts... thinking of sticking the engine in a nice lightweight mk1 hmmmmmmm??????? cheers..

as promised some more pics

hi thanks for the comments it makes the £7k spent on the motor and box some how seem logical (all parts used are new) ABF tall block bored to fit mahle forged 83.5mm pistons on abf strengtened rods, g60 crank which was lightened and ballanced together with a 3.2kg lighter g60 flywheel, and custom 4 paddle cera-metallic clutch (helix /ap racing), 1.8KR stage 4 racing head with 5mm oversized inlet valves, motorsport valve springs, retainers,etc etc. the cams are a one off grind copied by kent cams off a peugeot ! engine is bolted together using ARP fasteners only... together with diesel bearings only as they flow more oil blah, blah, blah Jenvey direct to head throttle bodies on MBE engine management and custom made wiring loom also made by MBE . the list is really severe, coilovers ,polybushed, porche boxter s 325mm brakes on winipeg centres.....uprated steering rack ,custom 2 3/4" exhaust with scorpion dtm back box, car sounds absolutely awesome . im sure there's more ive missed some will try and get some more pictures in cant bloody wait

i thought that it was about time that i shared my habbit with a few others with the same addiction.... there are various pics on both pages just click links cheers!!!!!
