Lets talk Stage 2 Edition 35.......WITH PICTURES

[Oli]

I have the rear spacers now, and will be fitting them this week, so will get pictures then.  Plus this weather recently has been terrible and it hasn't been cleaned for a few weeks!

Quick update.  I finally managed to get the car into work today to finish off the outstanding jobs;

Remove rear discs and paint the hubs black to match the front.
Fit rear 8mm hub centric spacers, to match front wheels.
Reset brake warning light using VCDS, due to NQSBBK not having brake wires.
Fit the lower upgraded engine mount, as supplied with the exhaust - Have noticed a little bit more vibration at idle since this has been fitted, is this really necessary as it certainly felt smoother before.  I never noticed this vibration on any of my previous TFSI cars with Milltek exhausts and the mount fitted
And had a quick valet, before getting some pictures taken - not the best due to iPhone and poor light, but you get the idea


Really looking forward to getting it on the rollers at JKM next month to see what she's making,  it certainly feels every bit of 330BHP that its supposed to be, and the midrange punch is phenomenal.  I am told that the Edition 35/Golf R engine has a HPFP as standard, hence the better figure they seem to be making when compared to the ED30, and it would make sense considering the pretty poor mpg! - Can/Has anyone confirm this about the pump??

Enjoy

looking good Oli

pump is the same as on ed30 ,more power = new pump/ internals

very nice mate

Can't wait to get my NQSBBK now

So you don't have the brake pad wear sensor fitted? I'm not planning to either, so you can just remove the warning via VCDS?

Do you know this for certain as its not what I'm being told. Plus my stage 1 ED35 made the same power as my stage 2 ED30 - 300bhp. I think I'll ring TPS today and get some part numbers. Be nice to clear this up. I've heard Rebo are releasing some new coding specifically for this engine and pump

This is correct, and very easy to do.

If that's the case, it's a simple and cheaper to buy an oem fuel pump and retrofit to the 30 !

Interested to know this too...

Will let you know today what I find out 

[Hedge]

Can you get the part number off yours Oli?

[rob_e]

That's a very nice car..   

I've also been considering NQSBBK refurbed red with some simple brembo logos on them, much nicer and OE looking than having the porsche script IMHO.

Did they fit the glendales without spacers?

Read the thread, he used 8mm spacers.

Re the HPFP, Revo Kev said something similar when he put the revised map on my car, along lines the new CDL engines have a better pump hence able to make better numbers than the ED30s did!

So begs the question, will one of these pumps fit the Ed30...??

If so, that would be a realistically cheap mod for some more top end shove..

[GrayMK5GTI]

I imagine the camshaft is different on the ED35 so maybe it gives a bit more pressure on the pump through that??

Interesting to know if that's true. Surely Hurdy would know as his R would have had this same pump??

@Saintsteve - no reason why the pump wouldn't fit?? The APR HPFP fits the CDL engines so should be a simple swap.
