Rippers 'never' finished black gti build

[Rippers]

Now for some fun

With a big cooler like the Peron, Revo intake, a BBT k03 hybrid and that RS4 valve, I should see 350bhp.

Injector wise, I'm not sure. I've seen quite a few graphs of the BBT k03 mapped by R-Tech on the standard k03 injectors, and they all make good torque across the revs. I'll speak to Niki and see what benefit, if any, there is to k04 injectors.

Already got an uprated Helix clutch which should be good for 400lb/ft, and the Powervalve, so I'd like to think the big costs are out of the way engine-wise. Apart from the turbo!

Car looks very clean mate

Enjoy the new grunt!

Car looks lovely mate. Are the H&R springs a 40mm drop? Looking at some for mine. Cheers

Thanks bud.

I think they are a 30mm drop. Once they settle they sit perfect.

The best springs out there in my opinion. There's a chance they will go through the OEM shocks quicker. Mine are ok at the moment but a good replacement for when they do go would be the B8's. A lot of love for them on this forum.

That said you will be ok with standard shocks.

Do it bro, you won't regret it.

Quick motor man. Where did you get the map done, missed it along the line? Was it a custom map? I'm considering a stage 1 Revo map, dont want to take it too far on the performance front so that should do me nicely.

I've heard and read really good reports on Revo so always a good option. I went to a guy in Essex who has a garage called Sani Motors. Reza is the head guy there who knows his stuff. He's anal when it comes to vags. Has a pretty quick GTI himself.

I originally was going stage 1 but knew I'd want more power so went for a 2. Pleased I did. It had a few maps before Reza was happy so yes a custom map.

What ever you go for you'll be pleased, the difference is night and day.

Bridgestone potenzas seem to the best rated so I'll give them a go I reckon.

Wow your motor is clean, the wheels and exhaust look spot on 

I've recently replaced all 4 of my tyres with Michelin Pilot Sport 3 and would recommend them, good (though not jaw dropping) consistent grip in all conditions.
