Still as crazy as ever then you'll have to get some vids up!

mental mate, are you changing pistons etc?

I know the VR6 is over engineered loads, is the R32 the same, or can you only run low boost?

good work mate, keep it up

hi all only real reason ive knocked up and conveted this ,is because few trying to tell me a r32 is better then a old vr ,so ,im not conveinced lol , i know they flow better due to 24v head and bigger ports but , the 12v in my mind is better as i know the r32 wont hold 25psi without blowing up , so like i do just proveing a point ,

stock mk5 r32 250bhp with basicly modifyed injectors, standalone, headspacer, i reckon 15,20psi and it pops
added a little blower

[gavbey]

[truss]

amazing as ever!

 

[powernut]

cheers pal , well a few more for you ,,
new manifold arrived arrived and thought id do a trail fit ,all seems good,,,..but hit a issiuse
didnt realise these manifolds are for t25 turbos , and mines a t3 ,, sdue to were external wastgate is shown, its in the wrong place , so that turbo intake is wrong way as well ..
so bit of adapting is needed first manifold

then chopped t25 flange off and welded a cast t3 flange on along with ,moving external wastegate too

notice now the intakes on the left and not on right ,

notice were old wastegate is now , ill just make a blanking plate , so then manifold can be used both ways

trail fit time

fits good , also i can now not only fit a turbo either way , but also spin the intake snail 360deg for any pipe angle ,,

Gotta hand it to you... a lesser man would of sent the manifold back... but you, make it work, and work better!

Keep up the good work!
