Recommended Posts

For the past 3 years the car had a poor performing VF engineering RSS GT2871 kit paired with GIAC software. It was never what I wanted. Never made the power it was supposed to. (~320whp) Never drove the way it was supposed to. This year I decided to try another round of upgrades. I got in contact with Arnold @ pag parts out of new york. He put together custom kit for me. I had alot of parts already on the car so swapping to newer/bigger parts was a pretty easy upgrade.

 

powertrain mods

-stock FSI block w/ balance shafts intact

-stock pistons

-stock intake manifold

-brute connecting rods

-9.5:1 c/r head gasket

-vband stainless exh manifold

-vband turbosmart comp-40 wastegate

-GT3071 with billet wheel upgrade and TIAL vband exh housing

-3.5" mafless intake

-3" catless exh with APR/Corsa CB

-RS4 injectors

-APR upgrade HPFP

-RS4 upgrade fuel pressure relief valve

-custom intank walbro 400

-Labonte stage 3 w/m with dual nozzles

-VFE twin intercooler

-Turbosmart E-boost 2 EBC

-Eurodyne Maestro Tuning Suite

 

Ive got plenty of other suspension/brake and drivetrain mods but I think thats all the important stuff.

 

Just got the car back up and running a week or so ago on the new software. Havent had to make any adjustments so far except for the warm up enrichment and the cold part throttle is a bit jerky.

 

Big thumbs up to Brian Turner at DynoTune Motorsports for getting me on the rollers in 2 days notice.

 

Dyno chart is on 26 psi where I decided to stop. 93 octane plus w/m. I dont have easily switchable timing maps so I decided to keep the race map on the car. I think it would have made high 300's on strictly pump gas.

 

Overall Im real happy with the numbers. Its more than I expected for the most part. I know its capable of more. >500hp but with stock pistons I dont want to chance a broken ring land with more timing/cylinder pressure. Ill possibly upgrade those at some point If I want more.

Engine bay isn't very pretty but its not a show car. Its a driver.
