We're all building our cars to our own specifications - otherwise they'd all be identical! :laugh:
Doesn't matter what you do, there'll always be someone who doesn't like what you do etc.

Depending on how deep your pockets are stealth. Thanks Ron thought about the black grill but its all about the go for me just now...our town is riddled with blue oval boys who take things far to seriously so i am hoping to appear with it and go straight to the top. :evilgrin: Stevie.

Ahh good good i was wondering when youd get a wee build thread going, how long are you going to be waiting for the engine ?
whats the plan with the gear box then mate just going to see how the oem unit holds up ?
-
A few weeks for the engine, valve train is gunked up bad (as they all are) so need to get that all cleaned up, waiting on a few seals arriving also. Going to see how the g.box goes i think, not sure where to go if i did decide to build the box. :happy2: Stevie.
-
i really like this car , well acleast when its not trying 2 kill me ... :happy2:
-
It has never even been close you drama queen!!!! :driver:

Are you lobbing a catch can in this time round ?
Im Thinkin of fitting one to the rs but not sure if this engine gets coked up as bad as the 2.0tfsi

Not sure why my pics are on their side their not like that in photobucket. You get the just of what stage its at though. Cheers!
-
Hi mate, I will be going this way this year so got a few questions you can pm me if you like.
Who is doing the build for you?
Which kit you using? ATP?
What were the problems with BSH? as I was going to go for their kit
Who advised you on what piston & rods to get? and anything else needed?
How much are they charging you to fit the parts?
How much did all the bits cost before fitting?
Sorry for all the questions :laugh: Just want to get things right before I start getting all the parts etc
-
The build is being done at home Phil by Allan Fulton.
I will be using the ATP gtx kit - quicker spool.
BSH messed me around massively, 5months I waited then started to panic about my money so got a refund. Think I heard three different excuses from them (maybe genuine I dont know).
Everthing uprated I have ordered from the USA...so much cheaper inc import. Speak to IE mate they are sh*t hot and mail back quick.
As for price of parts I havnt a clue I would need to sit and work it out, its all been needed so I have just bought it. A lot more than expected for seals and gaskets!
Hardest bits are done now so its onto the delicate parts.
Any more questions just ask. Cheers!
-
What sort of figures are you hoping for Stevie? :party: Is it a GTX3071? If so, this is what RS Tuning are running on their R26R..

:surprised: Should go pretty well..

He did blow that car up a while ago

I'm hoping for 501 Ron. :laugh: Little important finishing parts will arrive from BdmAlex on wednesday. Turbo hasnt been ordered yet but wont take long to arrive once ordered. At this rate shouldnt take too long before its built, get another big blast at it this week. Cheers, Stevie.
-
He did blow that car up a while ago
Yes he did, but it wasn't exactly unexpected and more a test to see what the standard internals would take. When just shy of 320.... Kabooooooooooom!!!!
He then had the plans already in place for BT and forged bottom end and this is the result...... So far!!!

Hope you can make 30-130 mate. But I understand these things aren't exactly quick in their progression, so fingers crossed. :happy2:

Quality mate looking fwd to the completion of this. Is all the pipework getting upgraded as well?
-
The metal pipework is all custom, intake, dv, downpipe and charge pipe. I have quite a few uprated silicone hoses, the important high pressure ones. I should take a pic of all the plastic tagged bags, bloody hell! :scared:
-
Looking good Tommy this is going to be some rapid Corsa your building mind and shine the tyres :signLOL:

Fingers crossed. Fuk the tyres a will get strachen to do it. :star:

nice wellie bobs :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
-
Said I would never do a thread aswell but just thought i would share and can always look back keep myself right. The wellies are seriously needed! -4.c and snowing! My car had done 41k miles before the build. Condition is great, I was little worried about the valves but the person who is rebuilding the head said it is completely normal after 41k and they had seen valves 10x worse than mine, everything else has been 10 out of 10 so far. Will see what the pistons/rods are like very soon. Cheers Gaz, Stevie.

Not tonight, well not pics. Pistons and rods are back in along with new hardened race bearings. Balancer shaft/oil pump is back on ready to be timed. Hoping the head will be ready to pick up Monday. The parts are slowly being ticked off mate. On target for next month! Still no turbo but they have just mailed saying slight delay with delivery..............fingers crossed its not another BSH saga. :drinking: Clinky on the Morgans.

Those brakes on the S3 were done by yours truly, better methods of affixing R8 brakes to a S3 the guy bought the whole setup and was determined to use the R8 discs. I would imagine there's a healthy 12-15mm spacer on there.
Stevie got R8 fronts under the stairs when it's Brake time let me know if that's what you're looking for..

That's a big ol turbine. Respect Stevie. :popcornsoda:

That was one very well looked after S3 by the previous owner, very nice bloke, probably one of the highest spec S3's in the UK. It's wanted for nothing that car, I'd say those brakes have done maybe 2000 miles in the 18 months since fitting, guy just used his van and left the S3 in the garage
-
Scott - shez burnt out, stroked to death. Pillow was a bit lumpy trying to sleep with that under it last night.
George - Irn Bru and turbo's two of the best things in life. :drinking:
Dave - Just need to get it up and running smooth out any niggles (make sure she doesnt go pop) then I will be in contact to talk stoppers and budget. They need to be black. As long as you say they are good enough then am happy.
Cheers troops! :happy2:
-
Little question for anybody in the know.......opinions or experiences needed. The big heavy duty coolent line running from the sump is seriously tight bordering on stretched it just makes it and no more could have been doing with an extra 5mm. Has anybody got any experience fitting one or how it should sit? Cheers.

These other parts were strapped on aswell, few little bits to tidy up and need to figure out if the intake will fit as this seems to be a problem area against the brake cylinder try and incorporate the itg somehow.
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fdaz.co%2Fmedia%2Fk524%2Fs3dubbin%2F01032012233.jpg&hash=5e7f3023b72e431df692ccf8e322f458e156d8f0)
Been phoning around for views on the mapping side of things today, think ive found the right people................if she runs. :drinking:
Not to long now!
-
Looks great, keep the updates comming :congrats: :notworthy:
-
With the atp mani, make sure the surfaces are flat. The ones I have had have needed machining flat as they were miles off.
That oil return shouldn't be that tight. Looks like they have sent a short line. I doubt the driveshaft would fit around it either.
If you want a longer line then let me know. I can get them made within a few days.
On the intake you will have to get something made up to fit as the kit is made for a lhd car. On a xbow I did a while back I had sfs make a custom silicon elbow which worked perfectly.
-
yeh reckon you will have probs on the drive shaft , mine is tight on my 28 but not that bad , who you gonna get for the mapping ?
alex how much can you get the pipes made for ? i might be interested ?
-
Fuk so you mean I need to take it back off again?? That is poor show.
Just had a right good nosey at teffs thread and his looks tighter than mine a little more kinked?
Would you mind me contacting you to organise the intake Alex? Really want something straight fit bolt on easy?
Software will be Revo mapping will be Falkland Performance. I was worried trying to find Revo dealer with rolling road (few in Scotland) and then found out it will be road mapped so all is sorted.
Cheers lads appreciate it. Stevie.
-
Looking good now! Plenty of graft going into that! Falkland doing revo now?!

Thats who Revo HQ recommended. You know how hard Alan works he is a gem of a man and for being a ford engine builder he certainly seems to know the TFSI. :happy2:

Kev at falkland will sort you out Stevie. Did you not see the post I put up a while ago about falkland now doing revo? She's getting there now, bet you can't wait :driver:
-
Am not sure he will be there has been plenty anti vag swearing during the build. :laugh:
Never seen your post Craig. They seemed interested when I phoned them was on for quite a bit. Plus only a hour up the road. :happy2:

I agree with you about star after the mess he made of the giac map on my ed30
-
Stevie the guy you need to ask for at Falkland is Kevin Adams,top bloke,they have been using Revo for a we while now.they have a rr as well but when wee geordie and me used them few years back with the Cosworth and impreza they used road mapping as far as i can remmember. :happy2:
Dougie
-
Road mapping is always going to be more true than rr mapping.

rolling road + road mapping = winner.
Thats how i got my starlet turbo tuned, all custom.

Wasnt Kev I spoke to it was his team mate. Seemed good at the sales patter but then again they all are. It will go to Falkland and it will be road mapped very soon just need to get the custom intake sorted. Stevie.
-
If you need any answers S3alex on vagoc might be able to help, also jonny c is very helpful & could also ring acr who did all the building on his previous big turbo s3 & edition 30
-
I tried Cocker but he didnt help me. Might try AMD again as they seem to be doing loads of these conversions and charging about £7000 for it. Hopefully Alex gets back to me and its a simple fix he has been a huge help so far. Cant be that hard just need to know what parts and where from. Cheers, Stevie.

Another question for anybody in the know about the forge super size dv? What do I do with the oem plug, am I missing something?

Car looks a lot better after today..............looks like a car again. Need to get the dv sorted and a little issue with the intercooler pipe clearing the driveshaft, super tight.

Not been shy mate, love it! Fingers crossed you get the clearance issue sorted soon. :driver:

Very nice :happy2:

Thanks Sammy fingers crossed for this weekend! :happy2:
-
How did yi get on this weekend bud !
-
sh*t. :sad1: Intercooler pipe wont fit round driveshaft and intake wont fit round brake fluid reservoir, fkin nightmare. Alex is looking into a new smaller dia intake for me to clear the reservoir and I am completely stuck with the cooler pipe. It needs oil and a battery other than that there is nothing left to do, stupid little annoying things holding me back. Stressful! It is booked in for mapping on 14th April. Cheers, Stevie. :drinking:
-
Hope you get round these wee problems soon mate :happy2:
-
Cheers Craig. Sure they will be but just kinda getting impatient its been a while, this good weather is make me worse I want to be out there in it. Plenty time before Crail 29th. :smiley:

Good man. I'll see you there.

This is a fantastic build, enjoyed reading it from start to finish. Credit where credit's due, this S3 is awesome and it's only gonna get better once the 'Big Blower's' in. Hat's off to you, love it. Paula :drool: xx
-
Send me a pic of it rubbin budy might be able to help
-
Thanks Paula hopefully have it going soon, exhaust fitting tonight.
Dave I will try get some pics to you later on tonight, I have had a 90deg silicone fitted and a 45deg fitted but don't look right. Might need metal instead of silicone. Brought some wire home from work to bend to exact angle see how I get on. Sure it would be an easy job for somebody with the right tools.
Cheers, Stevie. :happy2:
-
I've had a good look at the pics. Just finding out a price on the 102-70mm 90 deg reducer.
You need to clock the turbo back slightly then I think a 130deg to bring the pipe over the top of the driveshaft or 2x 45's to bring it under.
-
Yikes ! If your struggling for pipes could you not get an custom exhaust maker to fab you some up ? And ceramic coat them or wrap them ?
Whens crail ? 29th april ?
-
I would if I had a tow bar or trailer. Even if I could bodge it so that I could drive it to a fab shop. I dont think I will wrap those pipes the THS will do its job.
Crail is 29th April, spoke to Revo yesterday and they are wanting to work on my car up there.
Cheers, Stevie. :drinking:
-
u going to konzept in glasgow for revo ?
-
Heading to falkland for software Graeme....maybe, if I can get the intercooler sorted ASAP. :happy2:
-
Ignore the post in the REVO day thread mate - thats some build!
I never did see the spec of the turbo anywhere though?
-
Not sure if its the first one in Scotland. The turbo is the GTX3076R, billet wheel and 0.63 housing. Need to wait and see how it spools. Cheers, Stevie.
-
im jealous of your 4WD :congrats:
-
Yeah I love it, worth the extra pennies. Need to learn how to drive it again after 3mnths. Cheers Dan. :happy2:
-
hopefully revo will be doing 20% off on the 29th up at crail need my stage 3 redone , running like a bag of nails at the moment :)

She lives!!!!!!!!! Alive and well sounding sweet. Hopefully Alex can get the custom intake to me asap so that I can get it in for a mot next week. Happy boy right here. :happy2: Stevie.
-
Good new Stevie!!! Loving it mate. Bet you can't wait to get it mapped. How many miles have you got to run it in for?
-
Cant wait to get my intake so I can get it out on the road. Havnt really been told, running out of time before next sat. I'm sure 250/300miles would be enough.

Yeah young lad had to fix a "slight" fuel leak from my fuel filter............if the fix was free then i would wear his sticker lol. She is quite laggy maybe i'm just being picky but i did think it would come in sooner. The noise is unreal no idea how to describe it. Running 1.8bar and all the logs seemed to come in good. Stevie.

Not sure yet Craig. Running at 1.85bar just now so i would guess 450+. Running really well. Get used to it for a few months then back up to see Kev at Falkland for some tweaking. Will go to 2bar and lean it out a little.

Not sure yet Craig. Running at 1.85bar just now so i would guess 450+. Running really well. Get used to it for a few months then back up to see Kev at Falkland for some tweaking. Will go to 2bar and lean it out a little.
Stevie. :happy2:
450 :laugh: :happy2:
-
Thanks lads. Appreciate it. Deep down i am hoping 450 is conservative. Really loving it right now. Havn't used it all week. Will be removing the s3 brakes next week, chasing that GTR proved they were not up to the job. Stevie :drinking:

Hi stevie ,what bbk you going for? Great vids mate,not been to knockhill in years..:)

Not 100% sure yet mate. I always take so long making sure I buy the right thing done the same with my engine. DaveB must be pissed off with all my questions lol. Knockhill is great, some good racing there today at btcc. Cheers, Stevie.

Nice looking Eboost solution, i have to go that way aswell with the LOBA LO04XX.
And i'm glad the brake picture is a mock up, otherwise you'll have trouble bleeding that caliper :wink:
-
I recommend the eboost2, quality product.
Ok point taken i wasnt really thinking about that as it started pissin down. Actually just wanted the caliper to read correctly but i will remember next time round.
Cheers, Stevie. :happy2:

Did you ever have any trouble with the s3 front brakes after a good thrash !

Not at 360bhp but chasing that R35 at this level as hard as i could go was a test to much for them.
Cheers Benj appreciate it. :happy2:

On a track day ?
Are those revos the same as the forges ? Whats the pad choice like ? Are they spacerless or have they got extra depth built in the bells ?
I like a pimpin set of brakes but fink im just going to stick with the S3s this time though, as long as i dont get any issues with them on track days - they are decent stoppers, if not a bit weighty
Looks good !
-
At the hill bry. Videos on the previous page.
Dont know much about them tbh apart for them being Eurospec calipers hopefully have lines and fluid sorted by next week. Not sure on pad choice and all i can tell you is that the bells are mega deep.
The s3 brakes are a great setup i have ran them for long enough. Hope somebody buys mine soon! Thats what i have noticed with these brakes the weight difference is huge.
Ta mate, Stevie. :happy2:

like the brakes :happy2:, be breaking your neck when you hit the stop pedal

An update from the last couple of months. Might even call it a rant. Had the car mapped and logged by Falkland performance, running sweet. Next Revo were heading to Crail raceway so Kev went back out on the road with the laptop with them just to make sure everything was spot on, perfect. Then on to the rollers at Extreme motorsport about 5wks ago and they said there was no boost control and it was running lean as hell 14.1 i think they said back then. A little panic and took the car back up to Falkland performance (Revo). Found air was pissin out of a missing bung in the ext wg, plugged that up and fitted the eboost2 away out on the road with the laptop again giving an afr reading of 8 ( i dont understand the different readings, one old skool and one new skool i think) but they were happy again slightly rich. Back to the 4wd rr at Extreme today and it was yanked off for being lean giving a reading of 13.1!!? What the f*ck. In the end i completely trust Revo and Falkland and it has been logged too many times for them to be wrong. I give up. Here are some snippits i took, sorry for the quality.

slow ! haha pitty they didnt give it a propper run , it was going well over 535 :happy2:

I'm a bit sceptical but i will take it lol. Yours went well today. A bit of reverse psychology by you, awh it wont run that well.............as well as ever. :drinking: Stevie.

haha think it was every one saying stuff about converted cars not getting anywhere over 330 bhp but its been rr'd a few difrent places with 370bhp so pretty happy to be honest . . .
i would be looking at a new hpfp tho mate i have no faith in that autotech being able to cope with the numbers you are producing ! it is definatly running fine down low with plenty of fueling just watch it up high . :happy2:
-
Can only get it logged for a fourth time asap and see how it goes. Have the lambda plugged in direct for accuracy. I might be wrong but i think both Dan and Teff at 600bhp are Autotech. Falkland and Revo both logged right through the gears and high up the rev range.
Really need a beer after today! :drinking:

Not to many replies yet. If somebody in the know can explain the difference between vagcom logging on the road and my poor readings on the rollers it would be much appreciated? What are these numpties doing wrong with my car on the rollers compared to Revo kev and others for the poor readings? I take it road logging is the more accurate?
Thanks, Stevie.
-
Maybe get a stand alone afr gauge with seperately lambda so you can monitor it yourself. I would trust Revo. Take it they have done rr runs and not had the problem show up?
These are good ones

I suppose on the RR you are relying on an artificial load.
-
Logging on the road is always gonna be more accurate as thats real world conditions. On a dyno as above artificial loadings and artificial wind and i guess the probe they put in the exhaust aint that accurate compared to vagcom, which should be bang on. Check your spark plugs regulary until your confident everything is right, they dont lie :happy2:
-
Cheers lads always good to get an opinion. Gauge might be an idea but I do totally trust revo and falkland so bloody helpful all of the time not like that shower of sh*t at extreme Motorsport. Both revo and falkland have road logged/road mapped my car on separate occasions and saying the figures are bang on. Probe was in the exhaust rob.
Stevie. :happy2:
-
Stevie I use kev at falkland for all my cars and all my mates cars too I trust him with my car too he isnt the kind of guy that does stuff just to please you if there's a problem he will tell it as it is. Extreme Motorsport I wouldn't go near them wouldn't send my worst enemy there! If kev says your car is fine and he's logged it and its all ok then I wouldn't worry about it at all.
Maybe get a gauge for AFR though just to keep an eye on things can't be too safe but I wouldn't listen to extreme
-
Little clip a bit more professional.
Just wish Falkland had a 4wd rolling road. Extreme will get no more of my cash, so unhelpful disgusting customer service.
Cheers, Stevie.
-
Have you got any logs? Would be good to see blocks 230, 031, 020 and 003.
Teff uses the hpfpupgrade pump with their 150 bar fprv.
You need to do some 0-60 and 1/4 mile runs.
-
I have sent across my logs to you Alex. Your view would be massively appreciated. Do you mean log the figures during 0-60 and 1/4mile runs?
Ta, Stevie. :happy2:
-
As said stevie the zorst stick wont be as acurate as the reading direct from the sensors
The thing was the dyno operator said the car was boosting at 2 bar and it wasnt him that backed out on the run it was the car ?
Im not 100% sure about stuff like this but the fans were typical crap and probably only giving you a simulated 30mph air flow if that and was one of thr reasons why i didnt put my car on. this doesnt really explane why it was lean though if anything this would have the opposite effect. Speaking from revo and focus rs set up dv set is critical and can cause overboost if it was overboosting at 2bar instead of the set up of 1.8 as intended maybe the fuel system just cant cope with the increase in boost it seen on the dyno !
Whats caused the extra boost on the day thought dyno conditions ?
Defo didnt smell lean when it was running low down revs
Nostrels are still destroyed lol
Deffo worth getting something to monitor AFRs though not sure if you can get a scangauge for the s3 i had one for the RS (£120)
What kind of exhaust is on it ? I want !!
-
I went back there to see if it was running correctly and he has said no again. Will log out on the road at 2bar and see what readings are coming out. It doesnt look lean and it doesnt smell lean. Last time out in August Revo wanted to lean it out but kept it safe. Its a BSH downpipe and a Milly back section. A gauge will be purchased soon. The good old rr lotto strikes again +/- 80bhp this time round.
Cheers, Stevie. :drinking:

Hi mate,sorry to invade your thread lol,been reading ur progress and your s3 sounds like a monster :laugh:
Was reading that you had to been to extreme in Whitburn,I have also heard a few bad reports about the place,I stay in Bathgate so literally a stones throw away!wanted my car remapped and seen you had been to falkland performance and thought highly of them so thought why not go up and have a chat with them?
I'm glad I did spoke to Kevin,he was more than happy to help and spoke about remapping my ed30,anyway to cut the story short,phoned him up a few days later and booked in and got a wee stage 2 remap,happy with the power now is an understatement :grin: !
He spoke about you being up with your s3 aswell,glad I read your thread as there's not places around here that would take the time to talk about cars and all that crap lol!really nice guy to talk to and happy with his service and will defo be back up for some more goodies ha ha!
Cheers,Tony
-
Not at all Tony. Extremes attitude is sh*t. S3 is going well so happy i done the conversion. Kev is brilliant service is amazing thats why i am happy to put his name out there as much as possible, as you say always happy to talk you through any questions you have. Definately knows his stuff cant be many garages like it around this area. Glad your ed30 is going well. I will be back up at Kev before christmas more some tweeking.
Cheers mate, Stevie. :happy2:

Reverse track is good to watch. A lot harder by the look of it. Not sure where i will be going with it next Craig right now my wish list has been ticked off, ARB's maybe. Wheels refubed and b-pillars tidied up as the wrap/skin has started to bubble. Need to have a look later on see if i can see how to remove them. Plan on doing the 30-130 if i can get my name down.
Cheers, Stevie.

Does OSIR do carbon wings?

Cant see them Alex. Dont see any available. Is it OSIR that do the mk5 wings?

OEM RS3 are carbon, but you'd have to change bonnet, grill, headlights, etc...

Try C6 Carbon i know they do alot of custom work. :wink:

Yeah i have seen some of their stuff it does look quality. Not doing it for performance just for looks i have always fancied them since my r32 days.

That seems pretty decent.. or is it fully stripped ? just rear seats out ? looks good though ... how is it going ? still running lean ? haha :laugh:
-
Not massively stripped just the rear bench out, not sure how far I want to take the weight removing. Going good just need a little extra on the boost band and I would be a lot happier. Yeah lean as hell G..........dont get me started again lol. :happy2:
Cheers, Stevie.
-
Thats pretty decent weight for a 4wd. Maybe some lighter front seats? that's as far as i would go. . . This eco tune mob got their 4wd rolling road yet ? ... still running low boost ? or is it when you plant it there is boost for about 1.5 seconds before needing to change gear ? haha
-
She would rip the bollocks off me if I changed the seats after what I paid for them lol. I havnt been to ecotune yet not sure what they are like. I heard a rumour AG motorsports 4wd rolling road arrived at their garage yesterday and that is 2mins from my house.
Yeah thats it I would like that 1.5secs of boost to be about 3secs. Saving my pennies just now to rebuild the head. Had it up at knockhill on sunday and put it on for half time drag race, bloody sick of getting beat by these 997t's lol.

Had a little trip down to see Steve at Statllers. Had a really successful day. Graph looked like sh*t when I arrived and now pretty smooth. From what I hear these results on Steves rollers are good going. He was telling me he has never seen over 320bhp on a k04 stage2+ car so this gives you an idea. I am just glad to get my fueling spot on. More to come..........

Hi Stevie,
Steve Jr mentioned you'd been down to have the S3 sorted. Those figures are spot on and will make for a monster car. :happy2:

Cheers Hurdy, definitely glad I made the trip dwn, a good guy and spent a lot of time on my map getting it as close as possible in the time frame he had.
Going well Graeme. Going to head to a supercar day at Edinburgh on the 6th April, you seen the flyer?
Dont even start with AFR, first three runs on Statllers rollers i had the same issue, he ended up fling the exhaust prob to f*ck.
Stevie. :happy2:
-
Ahahaha. "Its lean" mate there is 3 gallons of fuel coming out the exhaust. Nope its still lean! :signLOL:
Glad its all good and has some good numbers. :laugh: been looking into putting a gtx30 on mine but only have 10k to get everything including a diff and clutch internals done and the kit so its looking at a bit of a push.
Nah not heard of it? Some sort of pistonheads day i would assume?
-
Lol Alfa funny. A hear his place has hit the fan, no wonder with his kin crap service.

How much boost mate? Was there any unhappy ford owners?
-
Sure its just under 2bar, 29.4psi on the eboost. Yes all ford owners were unhappy. Either nails in the tyres, buckled wheels or massive power losses compared to their estimated.
Stevie. :happy2:

Was good to see it out and about and getting a proper dyno run :signLOL: :happy2:

Lol. Cheers Graeme. Was good of them to log it out on the road before sticking it on the dyno. Impressed with their setup. Some good guys there on Sunday. Paul with the 32 going HPA turbo seemed a top bloke, should get him on here.
