my NEW turbo manifold.....(GTI update!!!)....
well this is a little update for those who remember that i even have a GTI...yes i am still working on it...no its STILL not finished...but its getting every close, waiting on flanges, passenger fender, and wiring harness.. oh and a turbo from Mr Josh Coleman aka: Hotsex. the rest it just work to get it assembled the rest of the way...
this is my custom manifold being fabbed by Euro Nation Motorsport...the manifold was designed for a MK1 (i have a MK2) so it didnt clear the motor mount, thats why the #1-2 runners are shorter. the turbo will be mounted up top for all to see
whole bunch of other progress pics...
how it looked the day i got it...
anyway i think i have a shitload more...but this is mainly about the manifold...i will post more later (like when i find the rest of the pics
)...

so yes i will be running a 'stock' motor...compression will be ~8.2-8.5:1...
as for goals? well i dont set goals, they tend to lead to dissapointment.... we WILL make 300whp on pump gas....also plan on finding the limits of the injectors/pump/pistons ~400-450whp but i dont have an aftermarket pump yet, when its here we (meaning Aaron at Euro Nation Motorsport) will be making a surge tank and illl fill the car with some super high octane race gas and go for gold (or piston ownage). as for 1/4 mile ----? umm...VW axles break if you mention slicks near them. so that means street tires (and an extra set of axles) hopefully low 12;s on race gas, low 13s maybe 12s on pump gas...
