Racing Tdi

My car will be at the Maxi Tuning Show in Santarem - Portugal days 9 and 10th of July. I will take some nice pictures to show on the blog. I need to do some stuff on the car to be ok to the show, I don’t know if I will have time.

Well I bought some new brakes on Ebay. Audi TT brake kit with zimmermann rotors. I should have they mounted on the car in the end of the month… Can’t wait…but have holidays first.

Well some of you may wonder if my car is having any kind of problem, since this major modifications. Well the answer is no. Well the is a minor oil leaking, I think from where the oil radiator is connected, but it was already fixed. Engine is almost 150 000km.

thanks…

Weel I don’t post here for a while, I’m waiting to finish some of the late moddifications. Those are the instalation of the 3 digital Beast Racing gauges. One of them burn, so I have to buy another one. I don’t have the sensors connected yet. I bought 2 analogic gauges, one until 2bar for the boost and another one for the oil pressure. These have a combination of white and red colour. With the engine off, the gauge face is black, when I start the engine it becomes iluminated.
I’m changing some of the interior leds to blue. I will post some pictures soon.

Yesterday I spent the afternoon on the dyno. After the car has gone to the workshop, a new air intake, BMC CDA and new camshafts. As I mention before I had to chips, one delivering 221hp and other 236hp. The two programs were measure and the results were incredible. The first one to measure was the 236hp program. The dyno measured 251hp! The other chip was measure and showed 240hp. Then some improvment was made to the power curve, and finally it measured 242hp. You can take a look at the graph 242.7hp dyno

The last configuration of the engine bay is the one showed here

First pictures taken with a mobile phone. The car is still dirty. Later I will explain the new mods.

I went to see the car today at the workshop. On monday it will be painted. I think it will look very fine with the new mods. Please visit my tdi engine tuning site to fresh updates next week.

As I sayd before, the air intake, was not ok. The stress bar was not in place because it didn’t fit with the current air intake pipe. A new BMC CDA intake is going to be installed. Plus the last powerflex brushes are going to be installed to. I’m also thinking of changing all the looks for a complete German style bodywork. My TDI Racer is almost… ready…
