My 9N Polo Turbo 2.0T - daily driven

Featured Replies

Hello all,

I have nearly finished my car to how I want it, thought i would share.

All I need now are some bucket seats, a rollcage and a respray!

spec-wise its running a 1.8 20v turbo engine, been fully re-built up with forged internals - not actually a 2.0L yet still haven't had time to put in the 2.0FSI crank.

GT3076r turbo

stock ecu - next week standalone and full power!!

I have netted 453bhp and 380ft/lb torque on my smaller turbo (gt3071r) so I'm hoping with the new ecu the 500bhp mark will be reached.

Rota force 17x8 alloys - parada spec2's

5 speed gearbox with LSD

cayenne turbo 6pot calipers

r32 discs

KW V3 coilovers,

solid bushes all round

jabbasport rear anti roll bar ( makes a very tail happy car)

race engine mounts

Weightwise i am at 1240kg with 1/4 tank of petrol

The car is laggy with the big turbo but very easy to drive if you stay under 3.5krpm its just like a normal 1.8 car but once the turbo starts to spool all hell breaks out, everyday this thing puts a smile on my face :)

I have managed 0-60 in 4.9sec's but its after 60 that this thing flies, raced a few big cars's : 360CS, 430, 911 turbo (997), R8 (4.2), m3, m5 and not been beaten yet :) this were top speed runs going upto 160mph, I have done a max speed run and managed 176mph and hitting the rev-limiter in 5th.

I will try get some in car video's when I go to a track soon so I can really open it up.

Thanks for reading!

Oh and if anyone is planning this conversion, get in touch I have alot of parts and knowledge after the amount of builds I have done to this car..

not ahuge fan of the wheels, but sick polo mate 8-)

mint pal, bet its fucking fun, yeah wheels are not to my likin either pal,

Cheers guys, I had no choice if I wanted the big brakes unless I used 30mm spacers or something crazy like that, I had the mk5 gti monza's before in matt black and they looked perfect but would never clear the caliper, hence I had to get the evo time attack rims made for big brakes!

Yup driven everyday, I manage 30mpg when I'm careful which is hard tho when there's an open road!

The wheels grow on me everyday, when i first put them on last month i was not too happy, its the red lip which doesnt match the car in anyway!

Thanks for the positive feedback guys, much appriciated
