Not much of the original engine left. :laugh: The original gearbox would be too weak and too short for what you have now. :smiley:
PS: I don't know many who would put a 1.4 badge in the back. :signLOL:

Do you work up at Darkside/SRS?

Definatly how I would like my car to end up, just need to organise funds to support it all :happy2:
will keep a look out on this thread!

Thanks for the comments, yeah the 5 speeds in the MK5 are weak and prone to going bang at stock power so it was a must!
The do a 1.4 75bhp in the Golf so i thought it would be funny but the soot on the tailgate gives it away!
Haha I bet you get some looks of confusion with the 1.4 badge :grin:
Haha had a few!
Very nice mods..The route I am looking at doing
Thanks, i hope you have big pockets haha!
Nice, reminds me of my old 1.9 TDI :-) Except you uprated your Gearbox where as I blew mine up :innocent:
Do you work up at Darkside/SRS?
I remember your old 1.9 and i can remember the gearbox going bang aswell :sad:
I work at SRS, seen your scirocco down at darkside a few times when you had the turbo kit fitted its pretty smart!
Lovely sleeper right there for sure!

Haha! All part of the fun. I replaced the gearbox with a 70k one, then I think someone else who had it blew it up again, then you guys got the car dirt cheap? :signLOL: :signLOL: :signLOL:
Ahh well that's cool mate, small world :-) next time I'm up say hello! Ryan and Scott are probably sick of me with the issues we've had but it's running nice as pie now :-) so hopefully next time i'm up will be for pump and injector upgrade tuning! :rolleye:

I have been dealing with darkside last couple of weeks rebuilding my 02q box.
Did you not need the brass input shaft support? I bought the steel forks and bronze inserts as well.

As quick as my GTI is, reading that torque figure does make me jealous. Spec list reads very well. Top job
Post by: ashtdi on August 27, 2015, 10:37:02 pm
Crazy spec...looking at that list it must have cost bucks :sick:
:congrats: :popcornsoda:
The specs not bad... haha
Always like to see the derv game in a good light like this, reminds me of being over on ukmkivs when I had my PD!
As quick as my GTI is, reading that torque figure does make me jealous. Spec list reads very well. Top job
The torque is pretty average for a tuned diesel now a days it could do with really been capped at 360-380ftlbs as it still has stock conrods.
What great spec. Will surprise a few I bet.

At the time of fitting the 02Q box the reinforcement plate and input shaft support were not available but its something which will get done done sometime.

Interesting to see the tip goes across the engine like a tfsi. Weren't the 2260s reverse mounted on these top make them fit?
Can't wait to see with the race cam!

Purchased a CAE Shifter a while back and got round to fitting it back in August last year, awesome bit of kit.
Darkside will be making me a custom 2.5" stainless steel exhaust as i have had enough of the drone from my aluminium one.
Didn't end up putting a race cam in as i'm still happy with the power.
Thanks for looking!

Cannot justify it at all. But they do look awesome, and are great to use.
Think you need to move to a highline cluster and get a Polar FIS :)

Whilst it were in for the exhaust i let them have a look at the map as the smoke has always been a little excessive for the power it made. With some fuel taken out of the map and less smoke the car made more power which is a bonus.

Must be lovely to drive though!
Post by: ashtdi on February 05, 2017, 10:54:48 pm
Is there any more to be had past 4k with some further mods? I remember some dervs making nearly 300bhp on the old mk4 forum, can't remember if that was with a 2260 or bigger.
Must be lovely to drive though!
With a race cam, ported cylinder head and tweaks to the map it would do 300bhp
It drives nice and been very reliable over the last few years

As said with further supporting mods, stock car is around 260-270 depending on smoke levels and how safe you want to run it.
Nice curves Ash.
