exciting

what figures are you aiming at?

 

[HollieTT]

Not really aimin for anything but above 400 low boost would be good start!

 

[badger5]

indeed it would

 

[taylor1]

daaaaam your goin for some serious power then! puts my MRC remap to shame big time!! haha dont know if i could throw big money at mine would rather wait for something with a bigger standard bhp first...you seem to have the right idea tho!!

 

[Paradox1]

A good start? lol. You could say that. Looking forward to seeing this one done, should be good .

 

[badger5]

engines in... for trial fitment..
some things need to be moved and heat insulated as expected..

 

[taylor1]

I was just looking at these pictures thinking..... that car looks strangely familiar.....

then I realised it was at the Badgers where I was picking up extended wheel bolts the other day!

Fantastic job, and a very nice car, and the wheels look particularly good on it.

No doubt it will go like stink.

Keep it up!

Quick update...
100mm intake using an RS4 MAF and Badger5 billet velocity stack...

Engine bay all back together...

....and of course first start...


Checking for leaks tomorrow and any other snagging that needs to be done...

Good times :thumbsup:

[Alex C]

is the velocity stack a new edition to badger 5's portfolio?

 

[HollieTT]

Yes I believe it is!


Here's a quick first vid of intial mapping!

[HollieTT]

Thankyou! Okies just realised I fluffed up with vid! The right one should be there now!
