I know the r32 engine can take 500hp at the crank on stock engine. Only thing that is needed is a compression plate which isn’t too difficult to do.

@danieljohnson774810 ай бұрын
Sick build mate.. Look forward to the dyno runs and finished product. The a3 I think you should do a budget build a turbo wheels suspension brake improvements ie tyrol caliper kit better discs and pads and lines and a face-lift and raffle it off be a good series, maybe let us vote on some part choices etc.. Look forward to whatever happens.

So excited for this build also you should do a bolt on series what it takes to make a r32 engine to either turbo or super charge one and how easy it is and do a really nice looking build on the a3

I'd like to know a bit more about the CAMS. How do you solve the riddle of the changed V angle using a 3.2 15 degree crank in a block with a 10.5 degree V. I'm assuming a 3.2 spec cam with adjustable gears to allow it to be dialed in to the crank. I'm looking at putting a 2.8 crank in a 3.6 block, with 3.2 cams as a way to make a cheap 3.4lt with low compression. A cheaper way to 700hp with a large capacity low compression VR. Gravituned Power need to get their store finished. I'd certainly be buying from them if they had the products and support to allow people to do these builds.

Hey Jamie! Another vote for a budget Turbo build on the A3. The Cupra is a rich boy build, would be good to see a poor boy build on the A3 then compare them in a battle on the Mannol Strip! A little bit of Hi-Car vs Low-car action. Whatever you do, its gonna be sick!
