Went to AMD technik today and put the car on the rollers. made 278bhp and 263.3 Ib/ft, and that was with the standard D/V and TIP.

will get a forge re-circ and a silicone TIP and then see what it acheivesl

heres a crappy video off my phone of it on the rollers

Good bhp but torque seems a bit low???

I'm not to clued up on torque figures tbh, but i do know that it shifts like a good-un haha , my mate cant pull away from me in his 330bhp leon cupra anyway

Well that's all that matters then!!!

It's making very very good power... i just would of thought your Torque would of been around the 290/300 mark. Not sure why it would be low, possibly RR callobration or something ghey like that.

Sweet car btw.

Fancy a swap for my right arm dude?

Fancy a swap for my right arm dude?

haha, depends what spec this right arm is??

just a quick up date...

bought an immaculate (minter than mint!) late spec gti interior in rainbow trim to replace my badly fitting mk4 recaros. Also a fully rebuilt TDI gearbox fittedwit a quaife diff is on the cards in the new year....

not got any photos yet, but will take some next weekend when i fit them :-)

a few pics my mate took in bluewater carpark...... cars dirty as fook though (joys of being a daily )

updates soon

whats this like to use as a daily mate?? i take it the 1.8t is far more suited to the golf then the polo? alot less problems? etc

its pretty good as a daily tbh, I've had barely any problems with this compared to when i had the 20vt polo. all thats happened with this since i had it converted was the coilpacks went, which is a common problem anyway. And yeah, id say the 20vt is better suited to the golf than the polo, its just seems to be alot quicker and i seem to get the power down better, dont get me wrong, the polo was awesome, but i feel the 20vt just belongs in the mk2. OFC being a 20 year old car, its still raw as you like when you plant it, but it can also be very smooth and refined on the motorway.

thanks for that reply mate, thats exactly what i wanted to hear!

yhhh mate thats mine :) should really update my avatar pic as since its had a full respray, little more smoothing and new interior. only thing letting it down is the engine bay...love a 20v just seems to me for the money its alot of hassle, cant run as low, snapping driveshafts etc it would just be a wkend/show car. which seems a shame for the money...

but your plans sound spot on! love to see this on the show circut next year

yeah, i see your point about the 20vt polo.... its part the reason why i got rid, i just couldnt be arsed with the constsnt problems, even though it was an awesome little car. should be at a few shows next year. defo going to Ultimate Dubs. i wont be showing it as such... its no where near the standard lol, it'll just be making an appearance :-)

20vt + Borbet A = Win tbh :)

I can't agree with you more nickb! However fast and fun the 6n2 is with the 20vt lump i do think it feels a bit fragile... almost as if the car just can't cope with it... I'm feeling the need for something a bit more refined already (Mk4 R32) but I want to hang on to the Polo until next show season.

thanks :-D , I'm wanting to either get some new rimmage or get these refurbed with a different coloured center. just not sure what to do haha

yeah i always felt the polo felt fragile too, was probaly down to the constant problems making me feel like it would break again if i pushed it ( driveshafts being the problem there)

the golf feels really strong though, i love it haha. this ones defo a keeper :-D

ok then guys...in all honesty then. is it worth it?

or am i better off with a gti lump with stainless manifold etc

only because next year i was going to do it if i had enough work after christmas..but i dont really want to br throwing any of my hard earnt cash away on something that will break down every 5minutes!lol

oh and i promise this is the last question (sorry guys!ha)
