RIX replied to jaysVR6's topic in Engine Maintenance and Problems
the normal term is 5%,when increasing capaseti.so expekting it too give the same as a real 2.9,i found out that there is more to it the just 0.1liter more. i have found that they don´t have as much touque low down as the 2.8 cause of the cams(don´t if that true),but since yours is a obd2 right it should give something,but you newer relly know with these vr,i am also in the process of running in,dun it twice this years,cause vw supplyed the wrong rings got 2.8 insted of 2.9,ididn´t spare any expence i did it all the first time had some more km under the belt tho.but my luck isn´t god cause -

Anyone tried or heard of this intake/inlet manifold...
RIX replied to matth76's topic in Engine Maintenance and Problems
The eip manifold is and oe intake thats modified,so spark plugs are no problem,withthe schrick u have too take the top part of the manifold off for changing,i bought my 2.9 syncro with the oettinger kit,its got oetinger regrind cams ported indtake and exhust manifold(you cant buy a 6 branch for the syncro)modded intake boks,chip.oettinger promisses 210bhp and 260nm(4000revs),the same kit for the 2.8 gives i think 200 and also 260nm(but at 4200 rpm). i havend found out what it cost but,i will find out some time in the future,also maybe getting it on the rollers this month. -

oettinger has ported my intake and ex manifold. -
remap will always be better,then some program/boks thats coupled between oe ecu and engine. dastek and then works are only used by people that don´t how to remap the oe ecu,if you buy a complet system like efi and others that another story,and if you build a race engine(ore put a newer engine in a mark1 golf)the efi and others are the way too go.
