RACK 0 Posted February 2, 2004 From what I've heard about the X-flow engine I wouldn't care if it looked like you had tipped the bits under the bonnet with a wheel barrow. :lol: Can't wait to see the end result. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CC WillG60 0 Posted February 5, 2004 Don't want to be stupid here but what's all this x-flow business about? Can someone please tell what this mod is doing to give such high performance figures!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OSV 0 Posted February 5, 2004 In basic terms replacing the standard head set up on which the inlet manifold and exhaust manifold are on the same side of the head with one where they are on opposite sides. hence cross flow. the 16v head is a cross flow design.

beavis 0 Posted February 6, 2004 The beast is being fettled with day by day. Me and Darren are off to the scrappie tomorrow to find doner parts to hack up rather than paying VAG dealer prices for new kit to hack up (all in the name of development) for the latest stage of the project. The aim is to make the engine mods accesable to al wallets. We will offer the finished item in packages. a) X-flow head kit to bolt onto your stock PG/1w bottom end. b) as above but flowed. c) as above but with rebuilt stock bottom end d) x-flow head kit 'Gucci', large CC overbored, forged piston'ed Jobbie. e) as 'd' but will added as yet undisclosed 'blend of g-werks/pitstop' trickery :lol: f) as all of the above with added garlic narn and a free flamer kit just so you can impress the local kevins to demonstrate them how much Gee Gee you have.

beavis 0 Posted February 7, 2004 We will carry out extensive tests on our 2 million quid engine dyno rig until it is fine tuned........ ..lol, we wish, ..alternatively it will get dropped into appropiate Corrado and raped up and down the A259 by Darren, myself and Liam until we are happy with it... Cannot wait for that day!!!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RACK 0 Posted February 26, 2004 Just wondered how things were coming on? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
beavis 0 Posted February 26, 2004 Good, we have got the alternator brackets made up and positioned, Darren is currently welding up a alloy plenum so we can mock the engine up with throttlebody and fuel rail in position. Picking up the bored out block and 1st of the run of the G60 forged pistons next week so we can crack on with building the 1st engine up and getting it operational.
