Hi Alon, welcome to audi-sport.net. Your car is very nice. Any more mods planned? Enjoy the forum. x

 

[alon24]

hi,thanks!
sure-
turbo system
haldex controller
hi presure fuel pump
and many more

 

[Jaacck]

Very nice. How much we're wheels? Considering the same

Welcome to ASN.

Hope you enjoy it here.

APRs turbo kit includes a GTX28 and is good for around 460-480bhp but you would need to be looking at an engine rebuild for the top end of that.

For more power you would need a 3071 or 3076 but again above 460lbs you need a bottom end rebuild.

I personally would do all of the suspension before the Haldex controller as good quality coilovers and ARBs make a bigger difference along with uprated bushes.

Make sure you replace the engine mounts as well.

Looking good mate, keep up the hard work.

Keep posting your progress!

Welcome to the site.

I'm moving to Israel if students can afford all this lol

My only criticism would be the wheels, really don't suit the car IMHO, originals were much better, not white.

 

[alon24]

Thanks everybody !!
About the turbo system,
My planning is not to rebuild the engine.
You right, apr does not not support but there is new software that maybe support gtx30
I'm sure that's my tuning shop will figure out what to do with my crazy ideas.
Meanwhile the stage 2+ is great.

The life in Israel for students not easy but we do what we can for our car passion.

About the wheels-in the future ill replace them with new bbs ch/ck

Thanks all and sorry for my English.

You'd need to approach APR on the software front but they are very keen on the GT28 for both lag and performance angles and if you aren't going to rebuild your engine you really don't need more than a 28.

Those S wheels before the rotors look awesome in white.

 

[alon24]

Another option is the loba k04 bolt on and unitronic&apr support each other in Israel.
That's maybe a cheap solution for me.

That's probably the simplest solution but also watch your torque limits and you would do well to look at a big intercooler and possibly WMI.

Welcome to the forum Alon. Wow that is a very nice car and build you got going there. But will have to agree i'm not too sure about the wheels, but your plans for BBS sounds good.

 

[alon24]

In Israel it's very hard to get unique wheel(rotiform,bbs)u can only get them in special order and its cost a lot(consider tax 17%+50%)

Alex, what do you mean that I need to watch my torque limits?

 

[Zak0123]

Looking good! Think I like the latest alloys, bit different and aggressive! Love the white alloys, makes it look like an RC car haha!

What I mean is not exceeding the torque limits of your con rods.

That means staying at or below 440lbs,which should be easy enough.

Lovely car Alon!

 

[Chillout]
