GTi-6 - ITBs & CAMMED Track Car.. LATEST VIDEO

[Arron]

I'm sure jp knows what he's doing. I can't find many reliable 200bhp xuds that drive with near stock lag

Just read the whole thread... I've been in a 400+
bhp charged 6 and to this day nothing touches the experience. You put a lot of thought and money into your projects so fair play, which ever route you choose by the looks of your xud project it will be done right.

And the cars looking sweet already

[Piggy]

shame they never made a 4wd 306/zx or similar to make it managable...

cant imagine 500bhp through fwd without major double wishboning will feel safe!

[Jonny b]

405 mi16 4x4 running gear!

Would have to be beefed up though dont think they are any good over 200 hp

[sam]

Colin from pugperformance has a 4wd 306 t16 running gear of a 405 just needs a savage engine

[Piggy]

Yeah just found that....
They do a berlingo/partner 4wd system using a rear beam still...

Seem only LHD european models

Was a company called Dangel that converted them. Was one for sale down road from me a few weeks ago

Hi JP, appear to be ignoring my PM's so I thought I'd try here instead.

Its been 6 weeks since I bought and PAID for the air filter and piping and have yet to receive anything. You say it's been delivered and signed for yet refuse to give me a tracking number so I can follow it up myself?

All I'm asking for is a tracking number which you must already have if you have "checked" its been delivered, or an apology that you actually forgot to send it and will have it in the post to me immediately.

Thanks

Sucks to hear bro

I know of plenty of xud's making 200hp, and some of them with much LESS than stock lag 1 of them has gone 20k miles like it....how many miles did jp's car do, barely went thro a set of tyres? no?

[Midnightclub]

IIRC it was detuned to around 180bhp most of the time to keep it reliable

You wouldn't be the first to be messed around mate, I hope you get it sorted.

Did exactly 20k miles in it since I fitted the big turbo. That includes about 5 or 6 track days, some road rallies and lots of hooning about. But tbh, only driven in fair weather, never held at high load for long periods of time and always warmed up and cooled down. Other than that, it got abused.

Yeah, most of it's life was spend at 26/27psi which made between 180 and 195hp depending on which rollers you believe. Only at 35psi+ would it make 210+hp and the pump was flat out at that. The most I ever saw was 219hp and that was with revs hanging, fuel starving at the top and turbo way out of it's efficiency range - to be honest, totally undrivable.

That doesnt sound too bad haha thats around my aim to break the 200 mark but not detune just have a standby blocl at the ready

Wouldnt call you a fanny mate i just got the attitude - i dont give a f*ck haha and a big set of testicles

[Arron]

Well I'm yet to find YouTube videos or project threads and proof ff all these 200+ HP xuds, I'd say yours and my interpretation of plenty is far apart. I was just saying looking at how he built his xud this should be a good project. Most folk just weld an old imprezza on. Wind fuel up to the Max and see what happens. At least this was done right and the fact it run at double stock fairly reliably. Also I'm a sucker for lil or no lag.

I think the hostility on this thread is deeper than just the car so I'll button up now but definitely will keep an eye on the project

[jammapic]

A little video I made before deciding I need a new roll cage camera!

[ozonehostile]

sounds real nice

[Ben]

Really hope this does end up with a turbo!

[jammapic]

Right... can't bear to part with it, so:



Brembos going on next week :-)

Also, I got it mapped last week finally, so it's spinning up to 8000rpm nicely

JP

[GTI 6]

Who mapped it up
Was it done by Wayne from chip wizards
8k rpm FTW

[jammapic]

A friend mapped it.

[RePT]

Videos were a well worth to watch, will keep tuned in !

[sam]

Glad to see your keeping it, must shift abit now

[Birk]

So are you still putting a turbo on?

[Ed Doe]

Glad to see your keeping it, must shift abit now

What with a remap on stock components with no exploration of cam advance? Yeah, bet the 8k raised rev limit combined with the fact torque is really dropping off by 6.5krpm means it shifts.... Lets not even go there with the lifters etc... They REALLY don't like 8krpm...

EDIT: Unless I'm missing the fact you've fitted the cams now? But still, 8krpm from what I've heard on a stock head is brave at best....

[sam]

Oh Im sorry that I dont no alot about the 6 engine, how the f*** was I suposed to no all that hmmm? Im sorry I dont! Have to get all lemon because I said one sentenc...

[Birk]

My mate has been running an 8k limit with a map for well over a year now with no problems

[Ed Doe]

Ok that must have been a bit lost in translation, I wasn't having a go, and if it was taken as aimed at you then no offence meant mate! I was more querying the additional power of revving the engine to 8k, and the point of remapping if he hasn't yet fitted the cams.... But as I said, I take it back if he has fitted them, but reading through the thread there was nothing beyond that he'd bought some...

Hmm, I heard consistently driving it up to 8k was not advisable at all... Just what I'd heard...
