As requested,here is the S3 in its tart phase but was too low and scraped everywhere
It was raised, sold the Bentleys and had a clocked IHI turbo with supporting modifications to make 332hp.
It had a wobbly pinked really badly and took out cylinders 2 and 3, destroyed the head and made a bit of a mess, still dont know what caused this to happen? Anyways I now have a 1.9L block with fully forged bottom end, Titanium valve assembly and one piece valves. It is now running a TD05 20g turbo which was a little tight and meant some modification/hacking of the transfer box.
This should be finished installing on Saturday, along with some other modifications to the map sensor, lambda, exhaust and inlet/TIP. The guy that rebuilt the turbo is then coming down to map it on a mates RR. With anti lag, launch control and an 8k hard cut rev limit to exploit that head. Early predictions are 400-430 at the flywheel.
