Rippers 'never' finished black gti build
Rippers:
So the car was left at Sari Motors in Chelmsford Essex, a VAG specialist I've know for years.
You've seen the previous pics of the exhaust going on, Reza the head mechanic was almost anal about ensuring everything was lined up perfect, 2mm this way, 3mm that way. Eventually he was happy and moved into fitting a new PVC Valve, cam follower, RS4 return valve, and the dog bone mount. I also needed a new o/s rear caliper so that was sorted to.
Then came the remap, 4 times Reza adjusted it until he was happy. The guy is a perfectionist.
When he handed me the keys he came on the test drive and made sure I was 100% happy. Which I clearly was.
The car is a beast, 275 bhp of noise. I love the way he's mapped it perfect to the induction kit and the Powervalve sounds mega.
Once I'd got home, still grinning my a*se off I noticed what had been written in the back of the key fob.
Brilliant
I can't praise Reza and his team at Sani Motors enough. Great service and one to consider if your looking for any work done to your pride and joy.
Gave it a clean today. I really pleased with how this has all come together.
I think this is project finished.
That's for reading and any feedback.

i have different tips to yours though.
I'm even thinking of deleting that first silencer to go full hoonigan mode. but it may drone on long journeys :scared:

What's your mod list mate (engine wise)? And do you have a graph of the map?
I'm at 270/345 myself on a Stage 2 R-Tech map. So nice to drive, although at this point we're getting close to the limits of the k03.
I was advised to get the RS4 return valve actually, when I had a Loba pump fitted, and got a bit of logging done. Didn't originally think it was needed on a k03 car, but I stand corrected! I'll get one when it goes in for the brake upgrade in a couple of months.

That's the only thing they don't have is a rolling road, will need to get it on one for a print out.
I Agree, anything over 270/275 would be on the limits of the k03.
I'm happy with how the car is set up so I doubt I'll push for anymore power.
Too much fun to be had at the moment.
I'll dig out the engine mod list mate
