    Nope still no snow up here and its still in the 60's regularly too lol. The car is put away from the "winter" season though as several things need to be fixed or replaced on it and those things won't be getting stock replacement parts and I don't have the funds to buy everything needed to complete those things yet.

     

    I'm sick of replacing my brake booster and having a leaky clutch system so that whole thing is getting a BIG upgrade. More info on that later.

     

     

    Just delete it lol I am

    I think my next turbo will be a GTX3071

    or possibly a GTX2867. The 60-1 I have

    pulls like a reight train. Maybe it is the tune

    But building boost seems to take a long

    Time with the turbonetics turbo I have.

    The 18G TD06 was insane miss it terribly.

     

    I think the GTX3071 will be ideal. The 28 wheel is a bit to small for the 2.6. Love it on 1.8-2.0

  19. JDL Exhaust Manifold.... Anyone test it out????

    Hey guys, so I got my car finished and I drove it roughly 400 miles this weekend. I cannot give you dyno numbers, but what I can tell you is that seat of the pants the car feels faster even out of boost. Its more readily revving and its improved my low end power a bit. Also a more definitive bit of data, my A/F ratios are leaner which means I need to add some more fuel. Definitely a good sign : )

     

     

    Any installed shots of everything on the car?

    You can pick up 20-50whp. Below is a 3rd party dyno from one of our VW customers

    So we decided to go back to the dyno this past weekend since we got the JDL manifold/dp combo in. I could already tell a difference up top and it took a week or so of working with Kblack to get the fueling added in the file, the first good sign http://www.vwvortex.com/Anthony/Smilies/thumbup.gif

    I will add that when I looked back at the logs from my first dyno from above I was actually seeing 18psi up top instead of the 16 it was set for. So we duplicated those settings to make sure it was fair.

    I'll let the numbers talk, no change in boost or timing, still on good ol 93, no meth yet

    Blue is ATP log manifold heavily ported

    Green is JDL tubular manifold

    Been pretty busy with work and life so I haven't posted too much here or touched my car. Im in the middle of looking for a bigger house as we have another baby on the way etc. With that my cars are on the back burned until I get settled. Anyway I thought I would share the latest twin scroll manifold to soon be on another StarQuest. Just need to port this and it will be on its way.

     

    Enjoy :)
