My 5 year old project car, AWD converted hit top speed

[@MotorHeadTech]

Christmas tree dash lights needs more work in terms of sofrware updates and removing component protection. My brake dust cover is making that screetching sound, need to fix that. I don't like my raspy exhaust sound, it's just for testing purposes. I won simple as that!

Are you really further ahead than just putting a new face lift engine in the car? On stage 2 my brakes barley hold the car back on a launch. Stock it would brake boost and launch but it starts building boost and wants to leave on the tune. You still have some things to address.

Looks/sounds like the car isn’t happy.. 2.0t should be good for at least 145mph unless the US speed restriction still isn’t removed 🤔

[@MotorHeadTech]

What do you think I should be expecting? because this is a project car that's in limp mode with a full stray Pipe exhaust system with no tune meaning stock top speed of 130

[@MiximusTV]

@@MotorHeadTech no hate here.. I think it’s impressive what you have accomplished, but posting a video of your car with enough lights to light up manhattan and beating on the car just to get it to 125mph in limp mode isn’t impressing anyone. I hope you manage to get all the issues sorted as I’d love the see the car driving under its own power without warnings flashing up constantly.

[@MotorHeadTech]

Sounds good, but It's all software incompatible versions. The car is mechanically and virtually safe and reliable. There's just limitations. Added over 500 miles on it since October :) Hence the entire car needs software updates

[@TOLDyouSOagain]

Wheres the update?

[@MotorHeadTech]

Give me 2 more months lol. I've been in ths process of moving my business to another warehouse. While in the meantime, I sent my car out to a shop to fix all the software codings and updates. I'm also dealing with personal stuff in my life. More updates will be posted by mid summer!!

That thing is struggling put it downnn

[@MotorHeadTech]

One of the lights that pop up is transmission, because I have other faults in other modules. the car goes into a limp mode limiting my power and torque. I hope that answers your concern

[@DanialKnez-z7o]

Man don't send somthing that needs fixed ypu could break things even worse

[@aminkhan1292]

This isn’t impressive as I’ve got an Audi a4 b8 2008 1.8tfsi fwd manual and I’ve easily hit 143, there’s a lot wrong with your car

[@MotorHeadTech]

How is a 2018 engine inside a 2013 a4 paired to a 2014 S4 DSG transmission paired to the rs5 quattro system not impressive while running on limp mode?????? This was a cvt front wheel drive, ingenuity to get this to work with factory parts. You shouldn't make such comments since you don't know the back story to this project.

@@MotorHeadTech so that was limp mode then what was the boost pressure

@@MotorHeadTech I’ve also been following you from the beginning

@@aminkhan1292 The instrument cluster was lit up like christmas, the car is driving with a safe mode on😅. 95% of the lights have been fixed. I just have 2 lights, power steering is once shorted out again and replace my shorted e brake module which is causing the transmission module to freak out
