It should be a Mark IV (4th gen. Golf) engine in a Mark II chassis with a crazy turbo bolted on to the thing. That thing is going to be silly fun!

It's pron to me dammit.

Nice!

MK III ABA 2.0 with an APR stage 1 Turbo kit...though I think I would have been going with a G60 head and a G-Ladder or a Bahn Brenner Stage 2 Supercharger.

As if you know a thing or two about Volkswagens...

Close but no cee-gar. ABA with a Kinetic StgII kit. G60 head wouldn't be bad but is essentially just a cam when it comes down to brass tacks. That can be added later pretty easily, the Autotech 268 grind is the lead contender. G-laders are great if you're planning to keep it 100% OEM but it's a flawed design for longevity. It's great that they're cheap to replace but they're also inefficient and don't get to my planned power goals. The BBM charger is another option that I looked at but id like to break 200 wheel and then some, so I'd need to run a stupid small pulley to even get there, and it would be pretty well outside its efficiency range by the time it got north of 185 or so. The StgII should put around 240whp pretty easily with room to grow if I wanted to add a Walbro later to pump some extra go juice. I don't want much more than that because torque steer is already going to be something to deal with until I rebuild and add a diff to the O2O.

Yes Massimo, silly is a good descriptor once she's done. I put the Techtonics catback on today since the old one rusted off last week, it's going to sound really good with an extra bit of displacement and a snail. Kit is coming from Canada, should be shipping this week if the canucks can get their shit together.

it is also a solid lifter head like the old 84 GTi ones that were overbuilt for under power...

I have a 4K sitting at work that needs a new ring and pinion, which is essentially what you'de be doing if you were to put in a Peloquin or Quaife LSD if you'de like it.

which mufflers and what size exhaust did you get from TT for putting on? Borla and 2.5?

[Artful]

What would you want for the 4K? That would definitely be a gearing improvement over the O2O and it would give me time to build it since it's more a matter of when than if in regard to popping the trans.

I went with a 2.5" with a Magnaflow muffler. It's actually pretty quiet, which I'm a big fan of. The intercooler is getting stuffed in the space where the AC condenser used to be so to the casual observer it won't look or sound much different than a stock MkII. Until...

6 pack of beer and your time to come down to Bethesda to pick it up from me at work and it is yours.

[Artful]

You drive a hard bargain sir.

[zooom]

You drive a hard bargain sir.

just coordinate with me ahead of time so you don't make the trip for nothing....

[Artful]

Is it a common problem that people show up on your doorstep with beer in hopes of getting a free tranny?

Wait that came out wrong. Lol we'll coordinate in the near future once I have a free second.

Maybe it is for your sir!

Please, that shit ain't free.

I think it would be amazing if it works out. Much better than batteries since there would be no toxic waste involved and refuel time would be only a couple minutes!
