Jonnyc's MK5 ED30 Build Thread..

[jonnyc]

Thanks, does it just cover over the orginal? cant seem to find it on the forge site  

Yep, just a cover.. Not sure if there selling them yet?? I dont know..

Update..

Just a few more bits for the car..

Another set of Project Mu brakes from VW Racing (Cheers guys)




KW camber adjustable top mounts



VW Racing carbon bonnet.. (Will be painted CW, probs not in time for Santa Pod though now)




Custom cold air feed using a 102mm inlet (picture shows 76mm inlet)



And then just a few thermal insulation pieces for the engine bay..

• High temperature exhaust wrap (downpipe to tail pipe & dump tube)
• Gold heat tape for intake pipe
• Zircoflex for heatshield and other misc pieces
• Wrap for Hose and electrical

Then for the really exciting stuff!!.. Time for a built motor!!

• INA Engineering I-Beam connecting rods
• ARP 2000 rod bolts
• Calico coated rod bearings
• Supertech pistons - 82.5mm bore / 9.1:1 CR

2.0T FSI ARP 2000 head bolt kit



The OEM cylinder head will be ported and polished and installed with a stock size Ferrea valve train kit..



Ill be running stock cams for the mean time.. The current offerings available have yet to prove there worth, so im working on some other options that will be considerably cheaper and more effective..

Im not quite decided on which way im going to tackle the engine build, I may just build the motor thats in the car, or possibly buy another ED30 motor and build that, either way it will be done around March this year, which will be in time for the weather improving (hopefully) and the up coming show season in the UK..

The engine build parts will make for a motor good for well over 600hp crank HP and will be capable of revving to 9000rpm without a problem (Ferrea have tested the valve train to 9800rpm)

Thanks to Issam @ INA Engineering for the engine parts!

Yeah 4 piston, had them on the Golf previously, and then they went on the S3 and got sold on with the car.. Best brakes I have ever driven with on a road car for sure..

i hear mrc are using a gt30 and getting 450 on a afaik std e30 engine

Im already using a GT3076R turbo by Owen developments.. All of the turbo kit hardware is already up and running and on the car.. Cant think what page now but the build is in here somewhere.. 

MRC are using a stock 3071R yeah, 450hp is about the limit of that turbo with the exhaust housing that there using.. The turbo im using will make 600hp no problems on this motor..

wow thats all i can say !

for some reason i thought you were still running a ko4 on a equal manifold . i reckon you are best of building a kitchen engine ! . i.e build up a spare block and head and do a weekend swap .

cracking car tho mate

So Jonny, You have moved the intake to the left? Have made another cold air feed from the left fog grill? or are you using 2 cold air feeds, one from each foglamp grill? would it be of any benefit to have 2 air feeds?

[Phil_T]

Thanks, does it just cover over the orginal? cant seem to find it on the forge site  

Yep, just a cover.. Not sure if there selling them yet?? I dont know..

A few other guys on Audi sport had it and just told me to contact forge, great update!

Is crank power at the flywheel?

Not yet, but Im in the process of doing the intake.. Its being welded up tomorrow so fingers crossed Wednesday I can get the car in for all of the work before Santa Pod.. (not including the engine build obviously)

Im moving the washer bottle to make room for a hose to feed the filter, and ill just run the cold air feed from the driver side fog grill yeah..  I really doubt it would be of any benefit having two, im sure I can get more than enough cold air into the filter area with just one feed.. Plus, it would look pretty scrappy running one from the other side too..

Thanks mate.. Yeah crank power is flywheel power..
