Hi not huge power, was running standalone with 3 maps currently 260-280-340, the 340 destroyed a quaife 6 speed box! When it's haldex'd I'm looking for 450,550 and 650, Scirroco.com is the best for peloquin as he has direct contact with Gary (mr peloquin) the ricer boys and BM (BuM lovers?) really rate the m factory stuff and they are trying to break the VW market. http://www.grinspeed.co.uk/product-category/volkswagen/ seem to be the UK distributors and I believe the prices quoted are inc of vat as when you go to cart all they add is 9.99 postage, if that's right then it's 100 quid for bolt kit and away you go. 
After speaking to Mart, the 02m is an arse to work on, blind bearings etc? No idea what they are but if a pro has issues with them.... Also the bearing rebuild kit is £300, would you want to fuck about with an essential bit of kit?
ive had to buy a 02C from Germany to get me by (£500) till next year, but I am still going to have diff bolts changed and also 2nd,3rd and 4th shot peened for strength. This makes the temp box well over a grand and possibly overkill but after speaking to Tim at the phirm he said straight swap and run low boost (never going to happen!) so I want the best of what I have. I am now used to the idea of money no object on these bloody cars! But it's great when a cayenne driver won't look at you after slaughtering him on a straight. Really interested in how your going to go, so please keep posting!

That's not what your gearbox said!

Good choice. I used to run the same turbo on my old vrt.

@jd's thanks for the advice man, but why not try r32oc for more specific answers to your questions which only you know. Why not try asking a question for us to answer? We may just know it. There are many wise (and old) r32 owners on here. Most of them already know everything they need to so hence why the little amount of questions on thus section.
We have 12,000 regular visitors on this site and if you don't ask, you don't get.
That is not a constructive post. That doesn't give us advice on what to help you with or how we can be of service. Frankly it's just rude. Please be more constructive before you get yourself banned.
Peace out. xxxxxxxxxxxx

New coils arrived today. 
Went for genuine NGK R8 coils in the end.
Some people say they produce a stronger spark which will come in handy when I turn up the boost.
 
I just like the look of them if I'm honest.?

Good evening Guys,
 
Well its been a while since we featured a members car so getting back into the swing of things this is going to be one of many. If you've taken a shine or special interest in a members car like we at VR6OC did with this one and think there car would be worthy of a feature then please drop me a private message. 
This members car was picked for the shear dedication, effort, time, money and I guess many many man hours that has gone into the build.
The build has been followed by myself and probably many of you and I can say without question this car is going to be a rocket when finished. So here goes......

There's some serious work gone into this car and there's more to come. certainly one to follow. This car will be awesome when it hits the road and tares up the tarmac. Keep both hands on the wheel matty. haha.
 
Congratulations mate, you have an amazing car........
 
 
 
 

Nice car and Welcome to the club

A Northern dyno day sounds good to me. Hopefully I can make it this time.

New coils arrived today. 
Went for genuine NGK R8 coils in the end.
Some people say they produce a stronger spark which will come in handy when I turn up the boost.
 
I just like the look of them if I'm honest.?

Injectors bungs made for stock injectors holes as 1200cc precision injectors had to be mounted in the manifold as too big for the head.

Down pipe and manifold complete.

Thanks for the gratuitous engine porn!
what you doing gearbox wise? I have read the 32 box can be a little weak when running big power.
good luck
steve

Awesome build thread. Your gonna need a runway to launch this when its finished mate. ha

Hope to see you finish it. Great work so far, the engine and gearbox look better than new.

Your only down the road from me I guess. Once you've conquered the 50mph zones on the M6 your there in no time.
I'm probably gonna organise another soon and more Northern. Maybe at Awesome GTI so that would be local for you

Thank you. Definitely looking forward to when!

Engine build is ridiculous  Gonna be sick when its done dude.

corrrr..fukin nitros..whoo..this is gunna fly..top respect bud

Down pipe and manifold complete.

Time to start wiring this lot together.

After hours and hours starting to make sense of it. This is my version of a millspec consentric twist.

Turbo manifold construction in progress.

I second that the black one is what mk3 dreams are made of for me.
