Hiya lads I've Neva really done much wiv vws I've always bin Ford.I've built zvh's etc.after been taken out in a mk2 super charged vr6 I've decided I wnt 1. So how much psi cn I run wiv standard internals. I've bin told u cn jus buy kits.is this where to start or is it beta to go full blown head off low compression etc.

[craggsy 91]

Can run about 6psi without playing with compression.....any higher and you really need to lower the compression.

Superchargers are fun..........but turbo's are where its at my friend

but superchargers are great fun ....

[craggsy 91]

Just keep an eye out on the sale section as chargers come up quite regularly. Just get a lower compression plate in the head and your good to go.

Cheers for the advice. Hopefully il b boostin vr style b4 the end of summer.

[cabrioman 6]

the stage two for a vortech v9 is about £500 iirc .... is a smaller pullie, red top injectors, idler pullie, billet recirc valve and then plus a remap ...

[rodney 17]

As said mate.. Vortech chargers to stage 2 are standard internals and clutch.. Rotex etc may need the plates subject to boost levels.

They are always on here and you can also call NSRacing who get second hand ones regularly.

Join up as a premium member and it will open the how to guides for all these things as there are some auxillary systems to look at like oil coolers and high flow CATS,..

Stage 1 Vortech should be up to 250 the stage 2 upto 280BHP. That said there are people who have a lot more on theirs for standard set ups. You need to build it the way you want it to run. Balls out or gets me and the kids everywhere aswell and safe...
