I promise I'll start another "Hello" thread. Link to post Share on other sites
corraptor_evo 0 Posted November 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted November 19, 2009 THIS ARE THE WORDS THAT SHOULD HAVE STARTED THIS THREAD:My Corrado was born like a G60 in 1989. Five years ago I kidnapped it (for a good price) from someone who didn't gave him enough attention. First step was some tuning at the engine: 68mm G-pulley, RS3 tuning chip, ISV block valve, overbored inlet manifold, raised fuel pressure, front mounted IC, polished and ported stage IV compressor, by-pass valve rerouting, RSII G-outlet.The car was very good… but not enough.So, the second step was adapting a syncro system from a 91 Passat G60.Well, again, the car was very good good… but not enough.So, the third step was to throw out (for a good price, of course) the G60 engine and to drop in a 2,8 VR6 engine (and a VR6 syncro system) and to rebuild it so resist for something nice… a Garrett! So, this is the list of all mods:Engine:- engine is rebored to 3,0 litres,- "Haltech E8" stand alone ECU,- "Garrett" T60-1 turbo (A/R turbine=0,82; A/R compressor=0,70),- "Wossner" forged pistons 8:1,- "H"-4340 connecting rods,- "ARP" headstuds, main studs and rod bolts,- "Glyco" bearings,- "Tial 50" BOV,- "Tial†F 38 WG,- "ATP2" turbo exhaust manifold,- "HGP"-clone short-run intake manifold,- 3 inch inox welded pipes (matt black coated),- "Samco" hoses,- "Autobahn 88" intercooler (600x300x76),- "Bosch" (044) fuel pump,- "Delphi" 525 cmc injectors,- "Schimmel Performance" highflow fuelrail,- "SX" FPR,- "SX" fuel filter,- "NGK-9" race spark plug,- "Racimex" 16 oil cooler,- "Mocal" oil adapter with thermostat,- "SPAL" double airfan,- "BMC" air filter,- 3 inch exhaust splitted in two 2'1/2.- SRZ oil catch can.Traction and wheelbase:- SYNCRO (4x4) system from a 95'Golf VR6;- "Sachs" clutch (Stage IV),- "Schimmel Performance" flywheel (4,1 kg),- "B M" short shifter.- "Weitec" (KW) adjustable shock absorbers and adjustable coils (Hicon GT+Tx Series);- "MAM" MT2 8Jx17 wheels with "Marangoni" Zeta Linea 205/40/17 84W tyres;- "BBS" RC - Motorsport Edition 8Jx17" wheels with "Toyo" Proxes 205/40/17 84W tyres ;- "SCC" spacers: 40mm front axle and 70mm rear axle;- "Powerflex" bushes;Body:- custom fiberglass bodykit;- Solar Red paint;- "In.Pro" (angel eyes) frontlight;- "APP" - xenon (7000K - short beam);- "In.Pro" front fogs & signals;- "FK" Lexus black tailights;- single wiper;- double sided exhausters (2,5 inch);- shaved doors and hood;Cockpit:- "FK" "Spacelook" front seats;- "VEMS" double digital gauge: EGT, A/FR (wide band);- "Stack" gauges: boost, oil temp;- "OMP" "Strada" 3/4 pts seatbelts;- "OMP" "Fast" steering wheel;ICE:- "Valor" ITS 701W all-in-one DVD head unit;- "Pioneer" GT X 4300, 750W 2-way amplifier;- "Pioneer" DT 6300F, 600W 4-way amplifier;- "Pioneer" 203 D2, 2x400W RMS subwoofers.- "Alpine", 4x200W RMS - 3 way speakersDyno:415 BHP / 6600 rpm & 495 Nm(365 lb/ft) / 5400 rpm @ 1,2 bar (18psi)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-8stFcB40aUhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ti0klJa_wzwhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ueSbRDKL5jc Link to post Share on other sites
