yep , it is on an ME9 and it is unbelivable to drive.
as for the engine build , you need to build the head as well , a lot of power gains to be had with cams and adjusted software.

That's some crazy figures, fantastic, I bet you're really pleased to say the least!!
Having driven a friend's laggy, but proven 500BHP Golf 1.8T 20v (bored to a 2.0), I can only imagine with a much better chassis it'll be superb.
Have you got any geek data, like MAF readings etc to see how much something like that differs from the usual 2.0T FSI logs?? I bet it's sucking in small animals at the rate that ingests air!!!!
Janner_Sy:
since you have built the bottom end and lowered the compression i guess this extra power has come from the ignition advance, ported head and new cams then?
i just find it slightly strange that the turbo manufactures have nearly under rated their own turbo by 100Hp

the main reasons for that insane number on C16 are the camshafts , which are magic with the right tune as well as massive timing advance allowed by the C16 fuel.
as an APR engineer described it , since it was the first time they worked with it, the fuel is "magic in a can".
