Stage 3 Polo 1.8T build

[20vpolo]

He must have had some major problems with traction putting all that power through the front wheels.

I had loads of trouble and mine is mid engined and rwd !

How did you get on yesterday mate ?

Im sure i seen 15seconds on one run, you pretty much launched it twice. lol.

Hi guys,

20vpolo - your car is amazing! I seriously want your car!
What was your best time?

Philw - did you see me run??! I did 2 runs, I think I got a 14.2 on the first one and 15.2 on the second! Crap but I was only running 1bar boost!

I;ve decided im going on an empty private road to practice my launching, with the big turbo its unbelivebly hard to get it right... for me anyway!

On my second run with the 15.2 my fuel rail bracket snapped in third gear and injector one popped out and I had fuel going everywhere! I was stopped at the end for like half an hour trying to fix it!

I did launch twice!, I bogged down then had my foot on the clutch slightly and the damn wotbox thought I was flat shifting so activated at like 2krpm!

Was good fun tho, I knew I wouldnt get a good time thought I would make some noise!

Quick question guys, should I be running injector spacers on the RMR manifold?

And also do I need high or low impendance injectors for my standard ecu?

Thanks

I think i see your 1st run the car looked very laggy.

 

[20vpolo]

I managed a best 0-60 in 3.6 and 11.6 1/4 a bit down on my best but had some good fun.

Usually you nedd to run low impedance injectors with std ecus and as for the spacers I had to usem then for my 630s and when I switched to the current set up of 750 ccs.

I dont supposed anyone got any vids of my polo snaking up the track ?

 

[PhilW]

Yeah i seen the 15.2 run then as im sure it was in the 15's.

Im not making the most of my power band - 4 - 7.5k, I get 1bar boost by 4k but was shifting at 6k as im unmapped.

Oh! I thought I read the 1.8t's need high inpedance!

I might just have a vid of your 1st run will have to see what my mate managed to record!

He said you was snaking right till the end!!

stock ecu's need high impedance injectors

Yes your right they do need high impedance ones sorry.

If you did catch my car please could you post it on youtube etc and send me a link.

Cheers

Pitty I cant get you tube offshore !

Apart from a misfire at the weekend my car ran well , I got a new pb 0f 11.10@130mph which I was pleased with.

A 10 sec run cant be far away !

 

[ibizacupra]

the red ibiza in that vid had an interesting BT install.. sidewinder GT35 unit

teething troubles on the day I think, and far more power than available traction.

chatted with the owner and his mate for a while - nice guys

 

[PhilW]

I seen you speaking them bill, was gonna say hi but you seemed pretty into the conversation so i didnt want to butt in. lol.

 

[ibizacupra]

you should have said hi Phil
