Polo Gti Badger 5 Big Turbo

[ibizacupra]

Size of that intercooler pipework! Is it not going to blown those jubilee clips straight off? I've had to double jubilee all my joints just to keep the pipes on!

I dont get what you are trying to say
pipework is 63mm up to the throttle body where is goes up to 70mm, into the R32 throttle body

Hi-Grip clips from Forge are used, and have seen 30psi no problem..

Maybe your clamps are cheap nasty weak things... and your pipes are poor and non-bead rolled or oiled internally making them slippy.

Nothing wrong with these when done properly

Did you spray the inlet or have it powdercoated? Great looking bay now.

its a scary beastie yes.

its close. in dry 1st/2nd/3rd just spin up. 4th grips unless there's any undulation in the road and then spins up unless its billiard board smooth.
leaves 2 gripping gears in the dry 4th and 5th... and forget them in the wet when on boost

I have not even looked at MAF readings as yet... boost control, fueling and timing, MAF will be whatever it ends up being from 28-30psi of boost

Cant wait to see this animal finished. We demand videos!!!

 

[ibizacupra]

i'm sure liam will oblige with his new go-pro camera

 

[Shaunyboy]

Why would you want all this power when it wont put it down, pointless imo.

Just wondering why you've got the DV on the hotside Bill? Does it really not matter if it's on the hot or coldside?

 

[ibizacupra]

hotside or coldside, I challenge anyone to notice an actual difference

 

[RobDon]

Ok thanks, reason I ask is because I was thinking of putting my DV back onto the hotside to get it away from the water injection nozzle, as moisture is getting into the DV.

I thought about this to, from reading up it doesn't seem to make much difference.

This is what I read


"I've not seen any conclusive results that prove that one position is better than another, but many people have different ideas about this. Some say that it's best to have it close to the throttle, since that's where the back-pressure builds from when the butterfly is closed and it will respond quicker. Others say that it's better to put it as close to turbo as possible so that the valve is venting hot air rather than post-intercooler cold air, so that the inlet pipes after the intercooler are still filled with cool air."

when will she be ready bill i love this little beast . ud have a shock pulling up on lights and this thing leaves you for dust. lol

 

[RobDon]

No offense but if you can't get any traction that's not gonna happen!

 

[barnsley]

off the lights its a tuned diesel everytime guys didnt build this car for that it will still move with the diff even if its spinning

 

[cupramillo]

4wheel drive haldex conversion possible? Will be mucho money though!
