MaidenVR6 26 Posted June 30, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 30, 2010 Its actually GT3071. My mistake. On the rolling road dyno test at Bugrun, it did 824 bhp on E85.02M w/Peloquin and DSS axels. Everything is holding up fine, except one Clutchnet pressure plate and one Sachs race Engineering. Going double or triple clutch next year.And yes Kev, I really do like the INA 044 tank. Link to post Share on other sites

MaidenVR6 26 Posted July 6, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2010 Had the car in a random shop that had free time to adjust my front suspension after installing coilovers.After 5 ours, the only thing the "kid" had done, was to make the caster/camber even worse, bent one of my OZ wheels and THEN he came to me and said the car was all done! I saw that left front wheel was not in position. I told him to see it himself. Then he said: Look at the papers, its all "green" numbers, and everything is good. At the top of the paper, it said Golf VR6 Syncro.....:^)He didnt know the diffrence.... So I told him to get the car inside, and choose Vento VR6. Then you can adjust my suspension, and DO IT RIGHT THIS TIME.... They are gonna buy a new ring/lip for my OZ rim.Some pictures:New rims that Ive borrowed from a friend, while the 3 split Mito are at service with a new ring: Link to post Share on other sites

MaidenVR6 26 Posted July 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2010 Alu pipe, and get the hose as far away from the DP as possible.Took awhile to get dry again after almost 2 liters of cooling water felt right down on the DP. Drying up at idle.. Link to post Share on other sites
MaidenVR6 26 Posted July 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 8, 2010 Not the first time Ive seen this hose blowing up on VRT's... A good tip, is to have a good look at it, and keep it away from the exhaust... Link to post Share on other sites
golfrabbit33 0 Posted July 9, 2010 Report Share Posted July 9, 2010 thanks Kris, will be looking into this on my build. Link to post Share on other sites
legvw 0 Posted July 9, 2010 Report Share Posted July 9, 2010 Yeah, silicone and a hot d/p don't mix! I've made custom steel pipes to route them away from d/p and turbo. Link to post Share on other sites
FishWick 21 Posted July 9, 2010 Report Share Posted July 9, 2010 That hose splits on standard VR6s to be fair, but yep, this is what I keep banging on about guys - build over kill to make your VRTs reliable :-) Link to post Share on other sites

MaidenVR6 26 Posted September 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2010 Been awhile since last update. Car is running very good. Been using it as a daily driver since july. No issues, exept a oxygen sensor And yes, the Magnaflow cat was completly damaged and made the car only boost 8 psi.Took the Magnaflow off, threw it in the garbage and welded on a 3" pipe instead. First trip with no cat, I felt the car was running as it should. But I had no clue on what psi it was on. So to see where it was at I did a 4th gear pull. It was no traction @ 32PSI. hehehe... So I dropped it down to 23psi and been running that ever since. It runs very good. No issues. Link to post Share on other sites
MaidenVR6 26 Posted October 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2010 Blew my clutch one week ago... 5th gear 25 psi, and booom Felt like the car went out of gear. So I pulled it off the highway, and stopped. Put it into 1.gear and when I slowly took the clutch pedal backwards it started to make noise's. Stoped the engine, put the car i 1.gear and went off the brakes. Car started to roll backwards like it was in neutral... So something has happend, and I hope its just the disc. Shifts fine in all gears and ratle sounds go away when the clutch is in. Link to post Share on other sites

MaidenVR6 26 Posted October 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2010 My buddy did the same on his MK4 R32 Turbo with Sachs Race Engineering clutch. And to be sure it destroied it all, it took his hole clutch housing as well. This is a picture of another Sachs Race pressureplate, that another buddy off mine just blew with a Twin 12V GT3071..
