vr6storm 0 Posted February 21, 2003 hi all, as some of you may or may not know i'm assistant scottish region vwccgb host,anyway just recieved this through my contact e-mail address thought it might be of some interest to all you g-lader guys; Hi we are GMC motorsport and have been involved with tuning cars for 30 years, one aspect is supercharging and we are the UK agents for Rotrex who do a conversion kit to replace the unreliable standard G60 unit (also for Golf and Passat) and wondered if your members knew of it and if they may be interested. The conversion kit costs £2304 plus carriage and VAT. There is also a deposit charge on the support bracket of £300. The benefits of this system, apart from reliability is extra power. The standard Rotrex charger kit gives an extra 10 bhp, the reason being the design of the Rotrex is a centrifugal not displacement as the G Lader is. Our charger takes less power to drive it and also does not heat up the intake air as much. They also do a bigger charger to give more power if required at an extra £60, taking power to 200 bhp. For more details please contact myself either by email or phone 01671-403606 and maybe a look at our web site on http://www.gmcmotorsport.co.uk could be of interest especially the New Products section. Regards Richard anyway hope this is of any use to you though don't actually know myself if its a good or inferior product,just passing the details on Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted February 21, 2003 Ouch... £2304... thats a pretty steep bill. Assuming you dont pummel the G-Lader on a daily basis when you take the Corrado out, and you have it checked periodically by a reputable service agent like PD Motorsport, then it isnt all that unreliable is it? Or are G-Laders renowned for just going pop for no reason? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
