Actually, the VERY first thing I'd do to a VR is forget about the engine and fit a 3.68 FD THE best mod you can do to a VR6 without question.

You may get 220hp on optimistic rollers with all those NA mods.... not on a dyno dynamics [wink] 0BD2 2.8 268 Dougherty cams 205hp.... Who said chipping an OBD II isn't worth it? I'm willing to argue, as I suspect C2 UK would be too....

Bump for more interest.

Hmmm, strange one. My gf has a Golf mk5 Edition 30 , as stock it was 254bhp @ Stealth. A few months later it was ran on a DynoDynamics dyno down in Portsmouth (JKM) where it produced 227bhp BANG ON the factory rating of 230ps.

Is it going to be out and about this year or are you still breaking stuff?

Someone on the Corrado forum has said it's got 3.6 pistons on an R32 block. Dunno what the details are or if that's possible..., it's still a mad little mk1 in anyone's book?

I've got an Unorthodox racing alloy one, same as Fidanza. http://www.sfxperformance.com/parts/UNO061410200.htm Pick up is improved greatly, although there is a bit more clutch chatter than with a stock flywheel. I bought mine from a mate, so can't offer any recommendations to a supplier.

You can rev to 7k on stock cams but you might as well piss on the spare wheel ! (out of the power band.)

You can get the limiter raised via a remap from such places as C2 motorsport, Stealth etc - if you're running 268 cams some people recommend you run uprated valve springs to control valve float at high revs - iIm running stock springs on mine and it's regularly revved to 7k on track days.

Sat pm Getting busier now the Sun was shining again - the track dried up really quickly, which was nice ! Marc from http://www.mw-sportfoto.de caught us at Hohenrain. Lizard and Steph turned up in Alex's E36 M3 , they were heading across the alps to Monza the following week. Das Chin was over in his mk2 Golf. During the weekend, I was gradually carrying more speed through some of the faster corners, Flugplatz for example , carried more speed through and on one lap Saturday afternoon saw 140mph over the crest before SX I was travelling faster into SX than ever before and things were ge

May as well add my trip report here. Posted on Northloop so you may not know the members mentioned. To say that I was looking forward to this trip, was a bit like saying Karl enjoys a few light ales on a Saturday evening in Adenau. This weekend it would be my girlfriend Claire, myself and the GVKwagen, we knew there would be lots of friends old and new at the 'ring so was ok to go "on our own". Weds left work early so we could hit the road and make our way to Dover where we'd booked a b+b for the night. As it's the middle of UK summer we had torrential rain alll the way down the M40/M25 on o
