just a note to all,   my rods where fine,  one of my piston rings went  :signLOL:   that bwa was a fighter!

And the piston ring is the same as  on a ED30/ S3 engine??  :notworthy: (awaits expert to correct) . . .

No not the same edition 30/S3 have stronger ones

Knew it wouldn't be long.  :grin:

Really impressed it's not the rods that failed seeing as everyone banging on about them being a "weak spot"

Please don't tell me that you referred to Sammy as an 'expert'  :wink:  :signLOL:

jk  :innocent:

Ohh so you call yourself a expert well you are Not LOL!  :wink: :signLOL:

Or 2.5 TFSI  :party:

i thought the piston rings where all the same?

I am going to install the cdl engine with the k04 + wmi,  and max it out to see what i can get.   Mine was not running maxxed out :rolleye:

Then big turbo, I am just interested to see what u can get with a standard k04.  

The engines are so easy to take out so i am willing to test a few things!

yeh its from vagoc, between jonny and dan they spent over £20k on that engine. didnt see anything amazing from it in terms of track times or videos but i know jonny always takes his cars to trusted places and pays hansomly for the skilled staff to do his work.

I logged Dan's car running this setup last year, monster  :happy2:
