SteveP's New Project

[tony_danza]

My mate has a genuine 500hp 1.8T which is bored out to roughly 2.1L - it's both hilarous and utterly unusable.

I guess the downsides of a stroked TFSI is even more torque and less revability. I suppose neither of which you are aiming for unless you are.  

It would be an animal.  

Agreed it would be an animal  

I think the stage 3+ spec it will come out of APR with this time which will make the most of the turbo and the extra low pressure fuelling will be enough for a FWD car, and more and I will have to seriously consider chucking some more driveshafts on  

i found a very interesting thread the other day regarding more driveshafts. looks far too easy not to be done, ill post it up if your intrested

^^^ Yep have investigated it and given I already have the spare wheel well removed it would be pretty straight forward on mine, plus I might have sourced the key parts already

Green cupra by any chance?

You literally would have to weld in 1 prop support and it will all bolt up

[SteveP]

^^^ Nope, had it looked into by KPM when i bought the car last year, but having seen the thread on Green Cupra it's very impressive

Hi Steve,

Simon @ Vagco Doncaster (I do believe he used to work for KPM  ) has fitted many many gti's with 4 wheel drive running gears. Not sure if contacting him would interest you, but if you'd like his number feel free to send me a PM.

 

[SteveP]

Thanks but I have everything covered

4WD would be awesome, really needed, would love to do that too!

[danishmkvgti]

there's a couple of cars here in Denmark going for the Citris GTX3071R kit, and also a couple going 4 WD in the near future. Both Cupra's and perhaps a Golf

Ahh yeah... that is nuts.  



Makes me laugh that it looks like a factory 5 dr 1.8T.  :noteworthy:
