I totally agree with you mate ! Malta is so small, and not much places to speed up here. Mainly when I want to abuse it I go to the strip, cos roads here are so short that it is not even worth the risk. I do drive it on the road but(mosltly) sensibly !!


Go to malta regular mate bugibba area were is the strip or race track

Do you know what figures can be squeezed out from a 1.8T 20V lump ? race prepped i mean, with aftermarket rods, pistons, ecu, etc.... Cos i bought one for my friend when i was in CZ, to fit on his ibiza as well, he's doing it with DTA, 880cc injectors, large intercooler etc, but he's not building the block for now

The skys the limit on 20vt, more from largeport cylinder head, depends on which one you got.
My own motor is 83mm bore stock crank (race regs), largeport cyl head, supertech valves, springs, Ti retainers etc etc etc

Depending on how you want your power served up, it should be as comparible to 16v turbo, with whatever sized turbo you wish for delivery as well as qty.

Hi all !! Many thanks for your comments, I'm happy that you like my motor, to be honest it costed me as how much my house did !!

For those who visit our sunny island, the drag strip is in a place called Halfar, brit chicks are most welcome too..... :D

I am running 3.0 1st, 2.286 2nd, 1.764 3rd, 1.474 4th, 1.238 5th, 1.043 6th, 3.5 final drive.

I am redoing my rear bumper, some did say it looks a bit weird but I had to sacrifice beauty for aerodynamics !! I'll try to find a compromise for both !

Make sure you have a dump once you have your 600hp! Will knock a millisecond or so off your 1/4 time and reduce the likelihood of you shxtting yourself too!

That turbo looks evil! And the knife edged crank looks top knotch a lot of work in there! You need a perpex sump to watch that thing!
Nice one!

update

Hi guys, just an update of what happened recently. I dynoed the car and raised the boost to 1.3bar, we achieved 462bhp@8150rpm with 2% advance compensation. It was all for the day as the coil had enough, and needs an MSD ignition amplifier to make things more interesting since we have not got enough spark to burn all that fuel at higher boost levels. Just for the record, we're running 100% unleaded pump gas so far !! The MSD comes next week, so more nice figures coming. By the way I ran 11.12secs @ 128mph and 1.92 60ft with BF Goodrich drag radials, things are looking good............

Many thanks for your comments, I do my best to make all SEAT's owners proud !! Hopefully I'll soon post some short vids of the car in action at our local strip. I must admit that with street radials(on normal saturdays and sundays) the car suffers a lot to launch, but when it grips, oh I can't explain the feeling. Most of the times, especially when driving against a 4x4 Evo or cossie, they leave 3 cars ahead of me, maybe more, but when it grips I make them cry. I have two major rivals here, a 600bhp+ evo 4, and a ???bhp escort cossie 4x4. I said ???bhp just because they usually run with 45psi, even more, and blow a block on very weekend !! But unless I'm running slicks I don't race them standstill cos with all that power it would be hard to reach them up the top. They've done 10.4(evo) and 10.6(escort) so far, but I'm not scared of them, as they say, mine is just an Ibiza :) !!!!
