Aviator Gray TTQ Build thread
Hello fellow enthusiasts,
You may remember my build thread that never came to fruition , http://forums.vwvortex.com/showthread.php?7078267-a-tale-of-two-1-8ts
Here is my new addition I picked up last week in Dayton Ohio ,
Initial plans are to swap over the following:
diesel Geek Sigma 5 speed short shift
H&R coilover setup
Porsche Brembo BBK
Front end refresh with control arms, ball joints, and tie rods
Rear Mad Max adjustable control arms
18x8.5 axis wheels and BF Goodrich performance tires
Then the bigger build I plan to mock up in the old TT. I still plan to finish the compound twin turbo setup with the 28rs feeding the holset Hx35. I have 1400cc Bosch injectors, and the Waldro e85 500 HP drop in pump with the 034 motor sports adapter.
Thoughts on tuning, was planning on just getting it all running and base tune on the stock ECU, I have a feeling stand alone may be best though in the end.
The motor that will end up in it is from my GLi which just has forged I.E. rods, but I haven't done the pistons or cams, so that is something that will eventually need done. I also have the FX400 and may need to go twin disk setup, for now it will be fine to at least get it running.
Here is the power train that needs finished :
We will need to plumb no mount the intercooler as it is an AWIC, we already have the bracket made for the head exchanger. also need to plum and mount the oil cooler as well.
I will post updates as they happen, hoping to start on the 1st stage of modifications next weekend!
Thanks for reading and any input is always welcome as long as your not being a jag off!
