Valver 0 Posted October 14, 2004 Here it is.............the car that has donated it's 2.8 VR6 running gear for my Mk2 Golf conversion now has a new heart.....225bhp Audi TT lump running on factory management. Currently using a Mk3 Golf TDi box, Merc sprinter i/c, and home-made downpipe/exhaust. Absolutely everything has been done by the owner himself. Here's some pics... 115mph at 4750rpm in 4th..... Bit of a street-sleeper - he's had a tussle with an Audi S4 and was literally glued to the Audi's rear bumper upto 120mph...... :shock: :wink: 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kevin Bacon 5 Posted October 14, 2004 Awesome! I think the VR6 badge needs to come off and replaced with a GL one, then it will be the ultimate sleeper! How about some steels and hub caps too? :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Valver 0 Posted October 14, 2004 LOL! as it happens he's looking for some 16" steels so he can fit the TT brakes, and iis planning on badging it as a TDi. :mrgreen: Should be going to Stealth for a REVO remap soon too........ :wink: :twisted: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PhatVR6 0 Posted October 14, 2004 I've got 2 sets or 16" steels!! typical, I was only down there last weekend looking at that very car!! nice tidy install too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TomB 0 Posted October 14, 2004 Ah ha ha ha ha ha! Marvellous. I love it! My Passat is a silver version of the one about (without the engine of course). He should definately rebadge it as a GL/Diesel for the ultimate in sh*ts & giggles. That's really got me thinking that maybe I should hang onto mine and start playing... Rock on!

Timo. 0 Posted October 15, 2004 Love the dials!!! Why does the audi 1.8 turbo engines say '5V' on the top?? I take it, they are telling us that it has 5 valves per cylinder. Why dont they have 20V written on it? WHat a beast!!! Timo. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

STORM 2 0 Posted October 15, 2004 i agree - and those dials are superb -chunky and purposeful reminds me of the dials in the eighties Ferrari GTO Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Valver 0 Posted October 15, 2004 Thanks for your comments guys - I have passed them onto the guy who built it and he's well pleased that it has been so well received. :oops: :mrgreen: He just wanted to do the TT transplant into something a little different to the usual Mk2 Golfs.... :wink: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
