Hi
Thought I would finally post a build thread on this Forum. I figured you guys wouldn't want to see a dirty diesel on a GTI Forum, but seems like there are a fair few on here.
Back in March I bought a 2007 Jetta 2.0 TDI (BKD Engine). Here are some pics of it when I got it:

First up is the chassis -
Audi 18" x 8.5" Fat Fives with 225/40/18 Uniroyal Rainsports
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fdaz.co%2Fmedia%2Fdarkside-developments%2FJetta_2L_16v_TDI_BKD%2FFatFives1.jpg&hash=132cd622d974ab0e39733dfb98539bbf61427a3b)

KW V1 Inoxline
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fdaz.co%2Fmedia%2Fdarkside-developments%2FJetta_2L_16v_TDI_BKD%2FKWV1s.jpg&hash=4b9099e860b0414e0cc22a5f7ced6d1dc8078473)
We also fitted an Audi TT 2.0 TFSI Rear Axle and Alloy Hubs that gave us 26mm more width and TT Front Alloy Hubs and Cast Wishbones, which give an extra 30mm and more camber. I have loads of pics, but didn't upload them. Everything is much beefier and lighter.
R32 345mm Front and 310mm Rear Discs. The front calipers have a TyrolSport Caliper Stiffening kit, which I would recommend it to anyone. Google it and see what I mean.

We used Eos 3.2 FWD Splash Guards with fit perfectly with a slight modification
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fdaz.co%2Fmedia%2Fdarkside-developments%2FJetta_2L_16v_TDI_BKD%2F2wd310mmrrShields.jpg&hash=df05f8b90c35cdc978875b3b5cf1462142a2d99a)
And it looked like this:

We then fitted a Darkside Developments EGR Delete and removed the EGR cooler completely:
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.darkside-developments.co.uk%2Fimages%2Fprojects%2Fjetta%2Fjetta7.JPG&hash=a0a5b68fc338b29baa40f3b903d5322ca186b0a3)
After we mapped it and took it to the dyno, here were the results:
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fdaz.co%2Fmedia%2Fdarkside-developments%2FJetta_2L_16v_TDI_BKD%2FJettaGraph.jpg&hash=3dec41a0dc52e0a36e79b7c2207325700082e767)
Some little interior mods -
Scirocco Flat Bottom MFSW
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fdaz.co%2Fmedia%2Fdarkside-developments%2FJetta_2L_16v_TDI_BKD%2FSNV84568.jpg&hash=d201ab9ac53a7b75d362bf3a7cbfd2a972b3bb00)

Passatt CC Switches
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fdaz.co%2Fmedia%2Fdarkside-developments%2FJetta_2L_16v_TDI_BKD%2FJettaSwitches-1.jpg&hash=04b72d89da446151be5c0db04b94ec258a20b3ea)
Thats how it stayed for a few weeks, but we had plenty more in the pipeline.
-
We then concentrated on the body mods, we did the following:
Golf GTi Front bumper with Summer grills
Jetta GLI Rear Valance
Hella Projectors with Lamin-X Gun Smoke Tint and Osram Nightbreaker Bulbs
Smoked Rear Lights
Smoked Reflectors
Smoked Indicator Lenses
Smoked Numberplates
Rolled and Flared arches
Black VW Emblems
Here is how it looked:
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.darkside-developments.co.uk%2F%2Fimages%2Fprojects%2Fjetta%2FJetta%2520%287%29.JPG&hash=cfc7079ab2fcc8ebd80c209bd0a31bc35a700103)
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.darkside-developments.co.uk%2F%2Fimages%2Fprojects%2Fjetta%2FJetta%2520%289%29.JPG&hash=0bd7a18603231f7d5c11be71ee1c016d1ac96519)

(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.darkside-developments.co.uk%2F%2Fimages%2Fprojects%2Fjetta%2FJetta%2520%2811%29.JPG&hash=e29565e4d3cedc54968035f3fb64b5cc2746f67f)
Next was to fit the Darkside Developments 2.0 16v TDI Turbo kit with a GTB2260VK Turbo from a 3.0 v6 Audi:
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.darkside-developments.co.uk%2Fimages%2Fprojects%2Fjetta%2Fjetta6.jpg&hash=a5a48ee8fadd6eea5f48a2dd76b5258d2ee46433)
Along with an S3 Intercooler and hard pipe kit (I didn't get a pic of the cooler before we fitted it, but it is all alloy with welded end tanks and no clip connectors):
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.darkside-developments.co.uk%2Fimages%2Fprojects%2Fjetta%2Fjetta8.JPG&hash=4ad28ed626c75614907e4fdf6bbc2362b7929bda)
Milltek 3" System (made for a US Jetta GLI):
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fdaz.co%2Fmedia%2Fdarkside-developments%2FJetta_2L_16v_TDI_BKD%2FGLITailpipes.jpg&hash=14d4ae9f4696a37b7a7fc2f6c2ecf29821c746ec)

We also modified the MAF, as it was deleted from the map:
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fdaz.co%2Fmedia%2Fdarkside-developments%2FJetta_2L_16v_TDI_BKD%2FModdedMAF.jpg&hash=ab952169cb6b6bf0c4f0921ea798d8c525231688)
Then we took it to the same dyno so see what we were making
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.darkside-developments.co.uk%2Fimages%2Fprojects%2Fjetta%2FJetta%2520Stock%2520%2B%2520Mapped%2520%2B%2520235.jpg&hash=e7caf0e018eca70731bbd123a446cf75e3a38fc9)
235.3BHP and 330Ft/Lbs. This is on a very conservative dyno (the operator calls it the 'heartbreaker') with ZERO smoke and a very road friendly tune. 3 days after fitting the turbo I drove 1500 miles to, from and around Cornwall and averaged 57mpg for the whole trip. It didn't skip a beat.
We still have some adjustment in the stop screw to get the boost to come in a little earlier, but it still pulls very well from low RPMs. What you lose at the bottom end is nothing compared to what you gain at the top end, it pulls like crazy to the 5000rpm fuel cut we have in the tune and pulls 130mph in 5th easily. I have found the 140mph electronic limit though, which we are working on removing ASAP!
-
Next on the agenda are a Sachs SRE Single Mass Flywheel and Sintered Paddle Clutch, Peloquin Limited Slip Differential, fitted to a low mileage PD170 Long Ratio Gearbox
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fdaz.co%2Fmedia%2Fdarkside-developments%2FJetta_2L_16v_TDI_BKD%2FSREClutchFW.jpg&hash=fa45032fcaafdd8a1bcd929d1cf93538784f61c5)

Someone on the Edition 38 forum posted up a pic of the Jetta at their show:
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fdaz.co%2Fmedia%2Fc332%2Fandy_cull%2FDSC01180.jpg&hash=e575e972e51a6c6393dd32e465d275c103519b9b)
We then fitted the Sachs SRE Single Mass Flywheel and Clutch and a PD170 Long Ratio Gearbox with a Peloquin LSD Installed. We also strengthened the shifter forks so we can do some fast changes. Once the clutch was run in, a set of Race PD Injectors was dropped in.
Here are the results from this afternoon:
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.darkside-developments.co.uk%2Fimages%2Fprojects%2Fjetta%2FJetta%2520299%2520%2B%2520300%2520%2B%2520301.jpg&hash=acd76f1c4efa607963babae081467e81436d31f7)
We did 3 pulls and they were all pretty close together, the best run was 301hp and 440Ft/Lbs.
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.darkside-developments.co.uk%2Fimages%2Fprojects%2Fjetta%2FJetta%2520301%2520%2B%2520235%2520%2B%2520166%2520%2B%2520134.jpg&hash=1f55f4c4b7b7c811850cfcbf328a3772d9006d97)
And here is a graph comparing the stock power to now, we have made pretty good progress!
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.darkside-developments.co.uk%2Fimages%2Fprojects%2Fjetta%2FJetta%2520301%2520%2B%2520134.jpg&hash=1587c7505c156a6e946e410d41256762576dea90)

The results from GTI Festival at Santa Pod last year:
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fdaz.co%2Fmedia%2Fcc394%2Fdarkside-developments%2FJettaSantaPod2.jpg&hash=27c0677946dadb98d22a4fc201364d26aeafaeae)
We had been down at Santa Pod all day today taking the Jetta up the strip. I managed to put in exactly 20 runs back to back without even a hiccup! All the runs had a terminal speed of over 100mph even when I selected reverse or had the odd missed gear!! As this was my first time out drag racing launching was the main issue so there are still a few tenths to gain and a less corner friendly suspension setting might help too but I’m happy as it’s exactly as it drives on the road!
The best run was a 13.8419 and the best terminal speed was 105.43mph. AFAIK the Fastest FWD TDI of the day.
We missed the fastest TDI trophy by 0.4 sec. That went to a nice guy with a homebrew Mk2 Golf Synchro/Haldex sporting a PD150 Lump, Hybrid Turbo and 150bhp shot of Nitrous!!
Here are two slips:

YouTube of the Jetta:
That was a 14.4 @ 103mph.
Hope you like it!

As said on the other forum--awesome car :notworthy:hopefully all been well,come next year i will be buying a darkside turbo for mine if my car behaves itself

We took the Jetta to Shark Performance in Mansfield yesterday to an Open Dyno Session.
They use a BaPro Dyno so we thought it would be good to compare how the Jetta performed against the DynoDynamics we use on a regular basis.
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.darkside-developments.co.uk%2Fimages%2Fprojects%2Fjetta%2FJetta%2520301%2520%2B%2520134.jpg&hash=1587c7505c156a6e946e410d41256762576dea90)

301.2bhp and 440Ft/Lbs - DynoDynamics @ John Sleath
299.5bhp and 438Ft/Lbs – BaPro @ Shark Performance
Difference is ~0.5% overall so I would say our results are accurate :)
Cheers

Bit of an arty shot for you:
(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.darkside-developments.co.uk%2Fimages%2Fprojects%2Fjetta%2FNSNPJetta%2520%282%29.jpg&hash=abc316728378ec27c497219999194b6ea14fd11d)
Big thanks to Adam and Tom at No Smoke, No Poke .com (http://"http://www.nosmokenopoke.com/") for the pictures. We will have a full company feature on their website when it is launched mid Feb.
We will also be attending the Charity Dyno Day / Car Show at Thor Racing in Coventry, it would be great if any of you guys could attend!
For the eagle eyed you will notice the Front Bumper has been painted as well as the rest of the bodywork, same colour as before but it looks like a completely different car! Also got some Audi S4 Avus Wheels in Hyper Black (thanks Metal Magic of Barnsley (http://"http://www.metalmagicwheelrefurb.co.uk/")). We fitted the Jetta GLI Sideskirts as well.
Plans for the bodywork are the vehicle wrap the chrome around the windows (decided against painting it) and we will also fit a textured black from splitter as I think there is too much blue on the front now.
We put some SuperPro Console Bushes, set up for increased Castor and then took it to Russ at Mick Gardner Racing (http://"http://www.mickgardnerracing.com/") for setting up. All we can say it WOW, Russ is a genuis when it comes to setting up suspension, as well as being an Ohlins Suspension Dealer, he sets up cars for a lot of big name companies and race teams so knows his onions (theres a Spring Onions joke in there somewhere!). I would recommend anyone to go and see Russ if you want your car to handle how it should!!
We also have a complete new interior which should turn a few heads, its not 100% finished yet though, waiting on a fancy new gearknob from Germany and then that, the handbrake handle and armrest cover are going to MJ Interiors for a 'freshen up'. I will post up pics when it is finished.
We also have all the ingredients for some more power so keep your eyes peeled for some more updates!
Thanks

We removed the Electronic Limiter :)

Cheers for today Ryan car feel much better :happy2: I keep fogetting to ask if your going to be doing any thing for VW Festival @ Harewood?? would be good to get a stand there.
-
This is great, loving your work !!
The only thing I'd want different......DSG ;) :)
-
Not too sure Darren, would be an idea I suppose. We would have a few tasty vehicles (not just cars :happy2:) to put on the stand I suppose.
DSG would be nice. We have a customer in Norway with an Audi A3 DSG fitting one in a few weeks, and a friend is also toying with the idea.
We had the Jetta on Thor's Hub Dyno on Saturday for the NoSmokeNoPoke.com (http://nosmokenopoke.com/) Launch Day.

This was with a some mapping tweaks (still not quite finished) but no more hardware upgrades.
We ended up with 287hp and 425Ft/Lbs at the Hubs. If you assume 10% transmission losses (it has been more like 20% on Shark's BaPro Dyno), you are looking at 316bhp and 468Ft/Lbs at the Flywheel.
Can't wait for the mapping to be 100% finished and then we can get the other upgrades fitted.
Cheers

:congrats:
hopefully if my car stays reliable next year or before--i will be getting yous to fit one of your turbo's :happy2:
-
How do you find the Peloquin Ryan? Im a bit underwhelmed by mine
-
:notworthy: love it, heaps of torque :driver:
-
Proppa Jetta :love:
-
Impressive for a TDI Jetta, great performance with good MPG :notworthy:
-
Now that is impressive - jettas are really catching on, and to be fair they are the bargain of the century when compared to the price of a golf!
-
This car is ridiculous... saw it today at the pod. Spoke to one of the dark side guys (who was in the caddy), seemed like a nice chap bu no idea who it was. :signLOL:
-
Rich it'll been Scott in the Caddy, Ryan will have been in the Jetta? the Caddy will be in the region of 230bhp or not far off?

I've always been impressed with it TBH, torque steer is non existant and it puts the power down nicely. The Jetta has been set up properly as well, corner weighted etc so that makes a big difference to the way it all feels
Now that is impressive - jettas are really catching on, and to be fair they are the bargain of the century when compared to the price of a golf!
They should do, more space, all the same toys and a few grand cheaper than a Golf!

Could have been Me, Scott or Stef. Scott drove the Caddy most of the day, but I did a couple of runs and Stef was sat in it a few times in the queue.
Will post some new pics in a bit :)

I was talking to said person about the R32 brakes and VW racing kit.... in the queue for the 1/4 :happy2:
Im almost certain it wasn't stef :signLOL:

Here are the pics are promised. STILL a work in progress but there are quite a few changes from the last pics. Anyone at Pod yesterday will have got a sneak peek!

Thanks

I saw this beauty fly up the track at the Pod. Very quick off the the line
-
Can't wait to see this at some point, and I have spoke to you guys over the phone a few times now for help, and you have been great not many places will entertain giving you advice unless your giving them money.
-
Saw this at the pod on sunday :smiley:, it was amazing to see a diesel doing the 1/4 mile that quick :notworthy: although the silver Fabia VRS was pretty crazy as well :smiley:
Keep up the awesome progress,
Ben

Also got a load of other photos on the facebook page from Santa Pod on Sunday:
Darkside Developments | Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.444042408946665.125480.262413180442923&type=3)
Also have a few good videos on our YouTube Channel:
Darkside TDI | YouTube Channel (http://www.youtube.com/darksidetdi)
If anyone has any more photos of videos, please let me know and I will upload them!
Results from the day:
Jetta Best Runs - 13.83 @ 104.3mph & 13.90 @ 104.7mph
Caddy Best Run - 15.48 @ 89.78mph
Regulars at the Pod were complaining of strong headwinds killing their times so we are glad to have (marginally) beat our times from before.
We managed to get 12 runs in the Jetta before we had a little mishap, which some people will have seen us pushing the car back over the start line!
Here is the damage:

Semi Slicks and a massive burnout to warm the tyres up don't go well with the sticky surface! We had a replacement driveshaft with us (always prepared) but the hubnut would not come lose! Ended up getting recovered to our Unit and it was back on the road by 9am on Monday!
Also updated the pics on the website for both the Jetta and the Caddy, some nice ones on there!
Cheers

Easy to confuse him with a woman though, haha.
I call it the Marmite interior, some people love it, others hate it! I like it cos its different, if it was black leather you wouldn't notice it!
