So 370 is fantasy numbers.
Would guess around 330hp.

Re: Project 500R
Maybe i got a few more whp after i changed the intercooler and added GIAC extreme file.philjay92 wrote:I'm impressed!
So i guess a number around 350-370 crank hp is normal for a stage 2.5+ setup.

Re: Project 500R
To be honest I only did the intake and map so I wouldnt get issues running a TBE set up. It drives really nice so I'm not going to waste the money on further mods or rolling road sessions. No point because I will be going 4wd with either a complete race spec 2.0 or hopefully a race spec 2.5. My current engine/box with all the mods so far will get sold or maybe used in a Polo for my Son as a min project.eMiL-VR6 wrote:Maybe i got a few more whp after i changed the intercooler and added GIAC extreme file.philjay92 wrote:I'm impressed!

Re: Project 500R
Why would there be issues with a TB system?

Re: Project 500R ending
Sadly with only 18k on the clock the Sirocco is going. I finally paid it off and looked into doing a 4wd system. 2 of the main VAG tuners stated they had no time for such a lengthy project, 1 said they no longer do it and the only one who could do it was Regal Autosports who could not even give a price due to the possibility of issues.
I have decided to start a new project which is a Audi RS3 Saloon due to the new all alloy 2.5 engine and Quattro. Looks like stage 1 can get nearly 100hp and stage 2 with ease.
I love my Sirocco and if only they had kept selling new ones and used the 4wd system from the Golf R I would be ordering one.
Anyway I have a perfect condition Turbo back BCS Sports Powervalve exhaust with race cat & wrapped downpipe for sale which has done only 8k. It will come with all new stainless steel clamps. This originally cost me £1700 so I am looking for £700. Please pm if anyone is interested> After March it will go one ebay, but I'd sooner it go to a good home on here if possible.

Re: Project 500R
Hello mate. Do you still have the exhaust? I can't seem to find out where the PM button is. Can you please contact me? sp33dy@gmail.com is my e-mail.
