Dyno day this year?

Just read whole thread.. love it all and couldn’t have picked a better colour for the body  
look forward to seeing the 1200 hp dyno... hopefully little video of it ? ?

They did a Porsche not long ago that was RWD

Yes they should be able to by driving in and reversing onto the rollers

Thanks mate, I'm pretty certain mine is being caused by the fuel pressure. The last few times I drove it before I put it back into the garage it did not cut out so I'm guessing I had got the fuel pressure just right.

It may not be a good idea to have members locate themselves by actual house or Street location. Not all users of this forum will be honest and if they happened to find out where a particular car was kept or if there were some nice parts for sale somewhere, the temptation might be too much to resist.
Maybe there should be a warning or pop up before adding location to alert members who might not have thought of that. Otherwise add your location by the first half of your postcode or by the town centre of the town you are in just to add a bit of vagueness as to where you actually keep your pride and joy!
Plenty of stories around of users of strava having their bikes stolen because thieves were getting the information for bike route stop/start points at people's houses and matching up to profiles which would list the type of bike used.

Yeh I know South mimms

Youre going anti clock on the m25? Could meet at South mimms services, myself and most likely Bennyk too. What time do we need to be at the venue for? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hi vag hag.
Lmao Iv been glued to YouTube searching for every vrt video I could find. Nice to know Iv not been alone. I was in touch with Nick while his car was being done and followed the progress on here and the corrado fourm. Don't post much on there as mines a mk3 golf but like to see what others are upto I knew yours was going in around the same time. Vince said he was going to have two cars in for turbos.
Just seen your thread on here. Very Nice looking Corrado mate. Iv read so many reviews from others on the conversion and they all say the power and performance is staggering while still being capable of being an every day driver if need be. The install looks fab too. It was following the work stealth did to nicks that sold it to me. Iv never seen his car or experienced a stealth turbo conversion for myself so I can only imagen and wait impatiently lol. Soooooo excited.

Thumbs up!!

Can I have a badge and a lollipop now please??

It is absolutely brilliant! Still using any excuse just to go out and drive the thing some blurb and pics:



For the benefit of some who asked about the stealth turbo:
Firtly, I must say the level of service is top notch and I can't recommend the stealth guys enough. Vince and co spent a long time explaining everything that had been done, the reasons why and how to maintain the vehicle, recommending the best plugs, oil, etc. it was obvious that a hell of a lot of work had gone in to the car, and IMO it represented excellent value for money if you're seriously considering turbo but don't feel confident enough to DIY.
As for the car itself, well now I completely understand why some of you guys chose to turbo your VR6s, I've never felt such brutal power in a car before, it was disgusting and after the initial shock I was laughing all the way home.
Setting off for the first time was driven off boost due to congestion, here it behaved exactly like a normal VR6 should and if taken easy I think the mpg would actually be pretty reasonable. The helix clutch judders ever so slightly when pulling away, but I'm told that this is perfectly normal (it isn't enough to be a hindrance though). The custom exhaust note is certainly quite unique and hinted that something was a bit different with the car.
As soon as the road cleared it was time to see what this thing was capable of. From second gear I floored it, and held on for dear life! It felt like the car had been attached to a giant slingshot and catapulted down the road - everything around me just became a blur as I went in to warp speed. I was worried that the lack of Racelogic would see me endlessly wheelsplinning, but the LSD was more than enough in the conditions to put the power comfortably down. Third gear was even more savage and from here on it was just relentless, never ending power. The exhaust when opened up sounds like nothing else, and the recirc valve gives a god almighty whoosh when you let off the throttle.
What goes up, must come down though, and a random emergency stop showed me how good the tarox brakes were. I would definitely recommend them to anyone as the stopping power is almost as brutal as the acceleration.
After paying the final balance it was a 2+ hour journey home, which only re-highlighted how fast the car was. Even in 5th, it pulls extremely hard and it was a matter of seconds before I was at license losing speeds. Unfortunately I didn't really come across anything exotic to test the car against, but I'm not the kind of guy to provoke anyone on the road anyway. At 70mph you can drive off boost too so as not to empty the fuel tank too quickly! Through the twisty roads the LSD just made the car feel so much tighter and controlled, a definitely worthwhile upgrade.
That's all I can really say for now, but for anyone considering getting this done - you will not regret it. Yes it's a fair bit of money, but definitely worth every penny.

Vr6guy- mk3 vr6T (or bmw if golf ain't running)

Managed 6 mpg according to the computer up the hillclimb at RRG last year 

There were some lovely cars there last year! Especially some of the corrados

All sounds good to me too! Would any1 be against it if I brought another car if I can't bring Vr?
