i saw rokkor racing collies in vw performance and someones running them on the club and they're only £160 on ebay but he made an offer and got them for £145,no experience on how they ride though..
-

-
just get some decent spacers and bolts that are long enough to make up the difference
-
has anyone used this before,if yes give us some feedback please http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260353667704&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT#ht_4289wt_714

put the links up mate and im sure one of the usual experts will have something to say about them,anything about FI/boost and they're on it like a rash,lol
-
in that case i would change the whole cv joint,inner and outer
-
could be mate and i would think it being bent would cause some vibration aswell
-
looks good mate,i was told get something with an AR of 70 or above
-
seen these in vw performance mag and checked them out,cheers for the info mate £145 it is then...
-
i've got the 12000k kit but if you want pure white then 4000-6000 is said to be your best option,got mine off ebay from china and havent had any problems with them..
-

coz the 1.8 is only a 4pot so it wouldn't work,dont know what the 3.2 TT inlet looks like though but im interested aswell found this on fleebay today http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/OBX-RACE-ALUMINUM-INTAKE-MANIFOLD-VW-VR6-12V-DUAL-RAIL-_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQhashZitem335cd085afQQitemZ220600501679QQptZMotorsQ5fCarQ5fTruckQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories#shId

i take it you would be referring to the 3.2 and not the 1.8t TT?
-
has anyone seen or used these before? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/OBX-RACE-ALUMINUM-INTAKE-MANIFOLD-VW-VR6-12V-DUAL-RAIL-_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQhashZitem335cd085afQQitemZ220600501679QQptZMotorsQ5fCarQ5fTruckQ5fPartsQ5fAccessories#shId -
thats just an insult,they should be given at least a 15yr stretch in belmarsh

you've just answered my question on what injectors i should get,i've been looking around at various sizes and just saw these on fivemotorsport,where did you get yours from and whats the damage?

[blockquote][/blockquote]tyranneous wrote ... Hang on. FSI engines that are normally aspirated run at 12:1... think like that Kia advert.... 10!!!!!! 10!!! IS DEFINITELY LOWER THAN 12!!!! So that'll be lowered compression then? Well done, I see you have a basic grasp of mathematics. You fail to mention turbo engines of the 70s/80s ran 8:1 or lower compression, so 10:1 and 1.2 bar is still high compression for a turbo engine. And VR6 turbos are often 8.5:1 or 9:1, which is lower than 10!!!!!! [blockquote][/blockquote] now now :-d
-
just read through your build,its amazing,mine wont be as clean but keep the updates coming mate and what injectors are you running?
-
all the garrett turbo's i've seen have garrett moulded on the cold side but im not a specialist,lol
-
as you can see in the post above i found the upper guide rail broken...
-
well got out early to start removing the head and here's the results

[blockquote][/blockquote]Haha no way I am doing a national diploma in aerospace, in my second year, where do you work? And my project is to produce around 300hp[blockquote][/blockquote] you can get 300hp with a good charger setup,you'll have to use a small turbo to get a low max figure of 300hp with a turbo but as the experts told me you dont want it spooling too early coz you'll run out of boost early,plus the gearbox could be an issue
-
i dont really know but i was told you de-comp to gain more power/boost,so i dont see why not,one of the FI boffins will be along to answer this question...
-
yh but if i was you i would change the entire thermostat housing with o-rings aswell because the plastic gets brittle over time and could crack when its being removed
-
you doing a build aswell?
