BWA engine mods

[MaverickFSI]

Hi guys,

To cut a long story short, i'm currently in the process of fitting the 2.0 TFSI engine from a GTI into a Corrado.

After doing a little research in to how I can enhance the engine performance, all I managed to find were mods such as;

Up-rated injectors
Up-rated fuel pump
KO4 turbo
S3 cams

For you hardcore Mk5 GTI owners, does this sound about right?

If I could do things differently I would of held out for an Edition 30 engine, but I have to make do now...

What is the going rate for the parts listed above?

Any advice/guidance on how to get the most from my engine would be greatly appreciated

Cheers fella,

I did see this yesterday when having a quick look and I copied that Ed30 k04 picture for future reference - Awesome bit of info that

Yeah, a little different from the 1.8T so I thought why not? Here's a link to the build thread if you want to see where everything is at currently, I work away during the week at the moment so progress is a little slow. http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,15873.0.html

Have a slight update to make, just got my hands on a full Audi S4 front brake set up, i'll be posting pics sometime over the weekend.

Thats going to be a lot of work getting the S4 brakes on a Rado.

You 4 x100 or 5 x 100?

Just been collared by a couple of guys on the corrado forum for some lightweight porsche stuff, you'll need 17's

I figured that might be the case 

It was a G60 by origin so 4x100. I need to convert to 5 stud first. I had thought about using everything from a Corrado VR6 as they're 5 stud, would that work? What would you suggest?

Yeah a minimum of 17" is what i've been told. I would like to convert to 5 stud so I can get some lush BBS's on.

Cheers Dave.

Apologies for the Candy Purple Caliper!

This is 996 Fronts on a 330x28mm disc, 5x100 Corrado Hub, piston sizes are 36/40mm which work very well. Rado master cylinder is 23.8mm same as a VR6 Mk3 and all model Mk4/5/6 so stacks up really well

This is the very gucci setup over on the Mk4 forum at the moment

It also works on 17's and if you use the TT comps doesnt need a spacer

Looking good mate 

Done a little more research and I'm lead to believe that Mk3 Golf GTI hubs are needed to convert the fronts to 5 stud, so i'll see how that goes. Thanks for the info on the master cylinder as I did wonder.
