hi all after reading 16v frenzy in golf+ & posts on here i've booked a rr setup @ stealth for this sat,cars spec. abf flowed head,kr folwedinlet & throttle body, tsr manifold, kent cams, thing is cars quick 15.1's down pod already, didn't think u coluld get over 170 fromk-jet.
Well you'll soon find out what you've got. 170 is not at all near the limit, 200bhp is achivable on k-jet with the right set up. 15.1 quick? sounds kinda slow to me
Yeah, mine ran a 14.8 down at GTI inters, with 2 gearboxes in the boot, full interior and crappy bald tyres (due to the massive negative camber) Im running ABF on kjet, has the WUR mod done by Vince at stealth, totally standard ABF head and cams, 50mm mk2 inlet and std exhaust manifold, magnex system, piper cross panel filter, std TB. 174.2bhp and 145.1lbs/ft Cams, head work and Flowed inlet and TB i recon it cud be close to 200bhp and 165lbs/ft??? ABF's Rock!!
Need to be a very good one to beat 190BHP at Stealth... There arent that many valvers that do, especially those on K-Jet... I thought my car went well to get a 14.8 1/4 @ Inters with 6.12 0-60 (200BHP/158lbs/ft) but maybe Il have to re-assess that now..
with old seat also runningabf got 15.1 @ inters but that car only ever got 15.5 down pod, mate's g40 would do 14.7 @ inters then do 15 dead @ pod, has this happen 2 any1 else???
No, my quickest time is at the pod. 14.3sec. Vick got 183 bhp and 160+lbft torque from a standard abf with a filter and exhaust system and a re-chip from vince @stealth. He ran ABF management not k-jet. Iguana, Nando has a seat cordoba i beleive (Black?). A lot heavier than our motors. It's gona be slower over the 1/4.
i had a seat cordoba mateu & me had a little run down a3after no-ricewent ur car was white, low down u had me but as speed i had upper hand, ur mk1 looking good.
Hehe! Yea that was me! . Poor white one died a terrible death! Im a bit quicker now though! So you havnt got the cordoba anymore? It looked nice.
mate made an offer i couldn't say no 2[:^(]i'm in a mk2 monza blue valve on black teledails,didn't know white 1 died, sorry 2 hear but ur better off with gray 1 i'd say, is that what ur down 2 14.3... i'm aiming high 14's, let's see what stealth can give me.
just got back from getting my car setup @ stealth, power before 178 & 143lbft power after 185 & 150lbft theguys @ stealth did a great job! thnaks
yeah well happy like i said didnt think i could get that kind of power, some have said 2 fit mk3 inlet plus an ecu of some kind, but i cant see why, the cost 2justget 5hp or even tb's @ 2k cost for 10hp.
Good job. Bet it feels much beter. So i take it that you are running k-jet. If you run abf management with a stealth re-chip, you can get the torque up by about 10lbft. But like you said, not worth the extra $$$ unless you really really want it or already have the system installed.
vw Motorsport used to make 220hp from the abf with standard inlet + injection and 270 bhp on throttles, ok these were big budget engines..... but 200........ as its been said is quite easily achieved itb's are handy for rev's + torque
I am running a standard kr on ITB's at the moment and was running that donington the 2.0 is out at the moment with valve prob's [:^(] but still having loads of fun with 1.8!!!
It looked and sounded great as usual, apart from the sound man I liked how quick you were with putting in the extra silencing as though you've done it plenty of times in the past. What ITB's and management are you using, all Alpha stuff or something else?
