@@Night_keen head flow is a major issue yes, usually top platform guys throw way to big of a turbo at the car and then just try and run super high boost to make the power. 4 port will likely take over long term but i dont see why most 2 port cars with sleeves etc cant do 900-1000 all day.

More craziness here. This is the R of all R's lol. Question about tires though. I heard you mentioning how you went down on size. I did the same and went to a light weight 18" rims and Michelin 4S. Car feel lighter for sure and hit 165 recently in Mexico and still had plenty of room up top. Going that fast are my tires safe at that speed?
@SportyMk7Ай бұрын
Just go off your tire speed rating. Most tires can handle a quick pull to 160 or so at higher power levels as it’s mostly the tire heating up that actually causes it to blow up. When it only takes 10 seconds or less to get to 160mph it’s kinda null

Dam bro that 68mm seems to spool up a little slow ur sure thats the best fit for that little 4 cylinder. Bro is ur built R as unreliable as mine. In the last 4 months ive replaced the cam, the cam button coming off the cam, The front magnet, map sensor, rear magnet, Turbo, Boost controller solenoid, another cam, more boost leaks, blown out spark plugs..... 630 whp FUK this thing bro which is why im swapping it with an RS3 and just bought an IROZ 1300 kit with a 72mm motor is sleeved with custom cams and Syvex. Magnesium wheels, Dodson clutches, AP brakes, CF everything, lightweight seats, etc.... this is literally the most unreliable platform ive ever dealt with. Fully built motor, built head, A2B plenum, A2B 770 kit..... Tuned by UM. It hits hard but I usually dont go more than a week before it breaks and thats driving it lightly! What is front and rear rim and tire set up? Can u fit the 15's on it? I have AP racing front brakes. Thanx
@SportyMk7Ай бұрын
Car hasn’t been unreliable at all. Comp wheel isn’t the cause of late spool it’s the 5+5 turbine and large AR turbine housing. I wouldn’t even really consider 52-5400rpm “late” when revving to 8000. Hate to say it but difference is the person building and tuning it. Others will never care enough to dial in a customer car quite like a shop or personal car. Car fits 15” wheels with no issues

@@SportyMk7 Its built by A2B and the things breaking have nothing to do with build quality these are ALL parts that are failing repeatedly! The Turbo wasnt installed improperly, The Boost controller works or it doesnt, The cam works or it doesnt lol Its just the biggest POS ive ever owned honestly! 5400 is where mine comes it so ur not spooling that thing at 5400 bro more like 6000-6300 but the turbo makes zero power on motor so its just a slug till it hits 5400. UM is the very best Tuner in the busness period! Its not the tune bro its just not made to handle that much power its just unreliable which is why im swapping and TBH im bored with the power I need like 500 more WHP. I got a 1700 hp Trackhawk and a 1700 hp Turbo Mustang that has a 91mm on it now making 1100 whp on 93 octane weighing 3400 lbs but this thing is really fun.... when its not broken lol

@@TENNESSEETRACKHAWKI mean hey to each their own for sure, but I don’t think it’s fair for you to tell him where his turbo is spooling up or how reliable his car is. I don’t know Sporty like super personally or anything but I’ve talked with him a good amount, and I will say he’s probably spent more time on this than a lot of shops might be willing to. It can really be a reliable and strong platform, but again like he said it depends on who’s working on it and tuning it.

@@05pharmd i think this platform will go fastest on the TTS chassis. the amount of possible weight reduction on those cars is a lot more than a Golf/S3. As far as turbo setups. just for simplicity (bolt on and internal wastegate) I very much enjoy the new PagParts SRX kits. As far as fueling, again, PagParts lpfp (E5LM) is killer. Its very popular on the turbo v10's and can flow pretty much anything you throw at it. im at 85%/100% @13.5v on pump e85 and if i put a voltage booster on it; it would be more than enough to flow methanol if the DI's werent an issue.
