Really amazing results!

Great Work Ryan, you'll have to drag it against my 530d when i get it sorted

how much more do you think the stock internals of the BKD can take ?

 

[DrFaustus]

I wish I had the money to take you up on that offer right now. I just blew through all my cash on ski season, a timing belt, and a new set of tires. Hopefully we'll talk about it in the spring.

 

[Bobby Singh]

Very good power figure congrats to all
Whats the smoke like? any vids from 1500rpm to red line?

Cheers

 

[devonmikeyboy]

Well done ryan good work. About time somebody produced some proper big turbo kits for the PD engines.

 

[ryanp]

Cheers Guys, I think the BKD will hold up better than most think, only time will tell as i don’t really want to change anything unless it breaks, I’ve got a few sets of rods in stock but i want to bend one first! Ha-

Mikey, what power did yours make at the Fly without laughing gas?

bolting a 16v head onto an 8v block is easy but you have to change quite a few bits that makes just fitting the whole thing easier, if you can wire it up!

Smoke is a little more than I’d want at WOT, not a cloud but more than a haze, this will be tweaked out once i get my AFR setup and can actually monitor it precisely.

Videos will be posted ASAP

That power was made at 2.5bar boost (3500mb VCDS) we did try 2.7bar with a 2.8bar spike and it seemed no better on the road. Cant wait to get a ported head and cams on there.

Another slightly overdue update, we have been down at Santa Pod all day today taking the Jetta up the strip. I managed to put in exactly 20 runs back to back without even a hiccup! All the runs had a terminal speed of over 100mph even when I selected reverse or had the odd missed gear!! As this was my first time out drag racing launching was the main issue so there are still a few tenths to gain and a less corner friendly suspension setting might help too but I’m happy as it’s exactly as it drives on the road!

The best run was a 13.8419 and the best terminal speed was 105.43mph. AFAIK the Fastest FWD TDI of the day.
We missed the fastest TDI trophy by 0.4 sec. That went to a nice guy with a homebrew Mk2 Golf Synchro/Haldex sporting a PD150 Lump, Hybrid Turbo and 150bhp shot of Nitrous!!</SPAN>

Here are two slips:

More to come as always!!

 

[manual_tranny]

Excellent Ryan! That sure looks like fun!

 

[TDIMeister]

It really begs the question, how on earth do you select reverse in a run???

 

[manual_tranny]

LOL! I was thinking that too, I have to assume that he accidentally put it in reverse at the starting gates.

That has happened to me one (and only one!) time while waiting at a stop light. I noticed after a brief instant and stepped on the brakes... the faces in my rear-view mirror of the people in the car behind me were PRICELESS!!

 

[ryanp]

Dave, I went a little too far past the line, reversed back and in haste did not let the lever lift back up when i selected what i thought was 1st!! haha

 

[ryanp]

Of all the runs to film, someone got the Reverse incident!!

http://youtu.be/VihZNoYxGlo

Still a 14.4 @ 103mph!

I won't be doing that again! lol

 

[kooyajerms]

Oy!

 

[TDIMeister]

Well we'll act as if we never saw that . Only affects your RT but not your ET anyway.

 

[manual_tranny]

The first and only run I've ever made at a drag strip, I looked away from the timing lights for a moment, and when I looked back they had already changed several times and I had about .2 seconds to react. I panicked, and dropped the clutch too fast with too little rpm and killed it, very embarrassing!

I did make up for that slightly by getting it started and off the line in less than three seconds.. which put my total time just over 17sec. I came in at 102/13.9 with a stock FD3S (Rx7) and a passenger. Good times were had by all.

 

[ducesrwld]

i don't know what it is but with this new 6 speed after coming out of neutral at a light i've managed to several times get it in reverse somehow and i'm not pushing down the shifter by any means. good thing i was never dropping the clutch or it'd make for an easy fender bender for my beater.

 

[ryanp]

I've just added this to my sale items, one (maybe two) time offer:

ALH Non AC bracket. Part #: 038 903 143 A or 038 805 145 A

Perfect if you wish to install a TDi into an older car without A/C or if you want to remove it from your A4!! £125 shipped - These are £350 from the dealer and i've sold a few when people need them badly!

Thanks!

 

[ryanp]

Bump!

 

[Tom.]

Any update on the hybrid situation Ryan?

 

[gas.cars]

Pm sent

 

[ryanp]

Replied!

BTW people, I have a PD150 turbo in stock!

Thanks!

 

[devonutopia]

Any update on the hybrid situation Ryan?

ditto! I'm essentially not eating at the moment so I can save up for the turbo

 

[ryanp]

Will have some updates very soon, some VERY interesting updates...

 

[Tom.]

Jolly good. I'm craving more power already!

 

[devonutopia]

Jolly good. I'm craving more power already!

To be honest I am just "getting by" with my warped manifold that is letting exhaust gases into the car every time I hoof it.... I don't want to go to the effort of removing the mani/turbo without having a new turbo to put in its place.

I also need to save up for the downpipe too which is a bit of a pain, but the one on my car now leaks like a sieve. Was laughable when I did a smoke test on it recently....

 

[Schumey]

What about some MK4 FMIC kits?

 

[kenmaira]

What about some MK4 FMIC kits?

^ +1. Right now it's either 1k kits or 300$ ebay kits which require custom cutting of pipes. Would love to see a FMIC kit that fits right under 800$

 

[OmegaRenegade]

most if not all 'bolt on kits' will require custom fitting to your car. To get the fit absolutely perfect to you car, you will need to jig about and a lot of times starting with an ebay kit ends up working out better.

its just food for thought and my own opinion.

 

[ryanp]

We priced up Mk4 intercooler kits and i dont think a true bolt on solution is possible, no-one wants to pay £500++ and chop the car into bits!

We are making another batch of turbo's very soon so put your orders in now!!

Ryan

Ryan,

I'm about 98% done installing the kit and a bunch of other goodies. Any tips on getting that inside cylinder 1 intake manifold bolt tightened up? I can't figure out any way to get a wrench in there.

Also, what is the silver bolt for? I can't figure out where I was supposed to use it.
