i have made a few tweaks on the engine, reclamped all hoses & feeds to lose any boost leaks, changed dump valve setup, redone exhaust system then replaced filter, belt & tensioner so should hopefully get some power runs before end of month will let you know

don´t have the date yet but think it will be like this year in sept. at padborg park raceway alot vr6 turbos but only 2 compressor golf 3 vr6 one with 250 and one with around 300.both rotrex

cool let me know and will try and get over; same here wont find many rotrex setups they deliver good power and you can use all of it in any gear

Thought was about time I updated this finally got back to Stealth last week to finish mapping but only got a few runs as the alignment needed adjusting then the day got way too hot up to 28 degrees outside

Pulled a decent 409hp and already see the torque its better lower down and comes in a lot sooner

With just 2800 miles on the new block should get better with more miles and hope to run it again on a cooler day

Next up a trip to Santa Pod now I can go full throttle here is a video on RR of the first few runs

it´s been along time since i logged on is there any news on the corrado rotrex front??? sad that the pictures are gone???

would you consitter comming too denmark for a viset either at our meet ore maybe at the jvk day 11/5-2013 its a kick tire day with a rolling roads all the be powered cars in denmark come,jvk´s own mrk 4 gti is being rebuild with kopressor rotrex 30-84 and a precision 6666 it will be rolled that day it has made 700bhp befor but now will se if it can deliver power under 5500 with the rotrex,most off the cars are turbo so it would be nice to see a rotrex one making decent power.

all/most off jvk´s costumer cars will be there

best regards

RIX from denmark
