Max power ED30 engine.
« on: February 16, 2012, 10:43:16 am »
What is the max power the engine can take ?

I see Johnnyc pushed out over 400hp on a GT30, im guessing your playing with fire over 400hp?

Then i hear that over 360hp is pushing it... ?

As far as I know a guy from Romania managed 420bhp on a K04 Golf GTI.
I know a few guys going above 360 on K04 :).

I have heard the limits are closer to 450/450 but its playing with fire close to those numbers.

It all depends on the map that's on the car, to much torque low down kills the conrods.  :smiley:

Over the top mod list ;o)

Don't worry Mike, i was referring to the AXX/BWA conrods. As you know i have just fitted the BWJ engine in my gti and are aiming at 450bhp before i would consider changing conrods, i had 354bhp on my AXX conrods no trouble, ( we have checked the AXX conrods and they are still fine) .
A mate's BWA Leon ran just below 400bhp/app. 550NM of torque with water/meth and he bent one conrod, so still 3 left  :grin:
