      Yes, it might start to dip at 9k which is wild. It's just a monster turbo on a 1.8. lol.
      A 1.8T swap in a 3dr Vivo would be really cool. Should be very simple if it's mostly a 9n. But I don't know much about Polo's. If you can find a donor GTI it will be great. Sell whatever you don't need to recover some cash.

No disrespect to anyone elses tuning just putting it out their........... Loving the growth and movement to 500 wkw.... Cannot wait for you to go and beyond

    • @lowdl
      @lowdl  Před 2 lety

      Hey. When it comes to tuners, Jameel and Andrew is an amazing combo. No disrespect to Gerrard but when it comes to 1.8 20v's, no one locally touches these guys. It's their bread and butter. They're also super hands on with me and teach me along the way. When It comes to ECU master perhaps Jason and his team at RBT would be able to setup all the extras a bit better. But we're still learning about the platform and the Mk2 is a test dummy. Haha. Hope that answers your question. I'm not so sure about 500wkw 🤣 for now 400kw is where I'm stopping. Pretty much everything needs to changed beyond that. So I'll need to build a new engine. 😆

      The thinking behind moving it just before the TB is so that as it shuts, it can dump the excess instead of it flowing back through the cooler. After some digging, it seems like it's quite a heated debate. I'm on the fence about it, I might just remove it all together.

      I only flat foot/no lift shifted once or twice. It was pretty good without doing that. But I'm not revving it high enough for 3rd gear. My 3rd is long so I tend to fall out of boost and that's not great. I'll raise the rpm and see what it does. I can't get too crazy but every little bit helps. Base spring pressure is 0.7 bar.
