When they go to this level but with the V12 😍
R12 coalburner
OH YES PLEASE..... I'd give serious consideration(once the COVID caper is over) to spending time at Darkside sitting for hours being told "what's what" regards what these good people know/have found out about VW group products.
5cyl diesel build can’t wait to hear how this sounds mate ❤️🔥
@@reecedrury4145 i got the d5 and i love it, great power and the sound :D
This is the only channel I know of that goes into the detail required to really understand how engines work. I've learned a lot!
I never seen someone gaining this T5 R5 engine like this. Really cool. We are sleeving these blocks in our workshop and doing full rebuild for customers, but this is something else. Great job!
Every engine shop needs a Paul, especially the speed he works at! 😄
That thought had crossed my mind, if my gaffers saw these vids they'd want us all working at that speed.
Genuinely one of the only videos I’ve not skip watched on CZcams lately. Proper vid this, nice work. 👌🏻
If ever you have the sump off again, I'd suggest welding reinforcing on the baffle plate unsupported section towards the oil pump, these crack at the curved corners and break off....awesome build though on these god damn problematic engines. Surprised no injector bridge, best thing I bought from you guys!
Crazy, in Germany you're looking at 8-10.000€ just for the parts alone. Very nice to see the BAC and consortium to see some love. I have a Touareg R5 with a simple chip which woke up the car in many ways. Fuel consumption went down from 9,8L/100km on mainly city and country to 7,7L/100km and the torque limit beneath 2100 where the engine just died, making accelerating even in first gear a problem, went away and now you get power from 1800 onwards with more power beneath 2000 in every gear. It's quicker and cleaner too, no smoke anymore and at the TÜV the clouding/smoke value was at 0.08 whereas the acceptable limit to pass exhaust inspection sits at 0.25, crazy!
Even the Transporter Recovery vehicle is tuned and better everywhere than full blown builds by other channels
This would be a fun thing to swap into a MK4/MK5 platform car that came with the 1.9.
Looking forward to more nerdy facts about the 2.5
Love the use of the speed wrench. Gppd skills.
Loud with a 3” exhaust my dads vans got your 2260 on it sounds mental 2.0cr
When its finished u need to do a comparision with a slower car and how to make it faster. 0-60mph of slower car vs that same car on back of the truck
Yes
Thats bloody genius, love it
16:00 I'm listening along while at work and as soon as this song came on I was like "wait, is this a Hoonigan video?". Haha can't blame you for using the same track, it's a banger
You guys sure do great work, that Transporter is gonna rip!
I'm ringing the bank first thing in the morning!
Always great to hear you talk about the intricacies of how these engines work....love the explanations you give Ryan...your knowledge is incredible. Great video as always.
Never knew these engines were plasma coated. We use the plasma ion coating at Cosworth on the Valkyrie and Honda engines. It's an extremely hard surface that it honed really smooth to reduce friction, improve longevity and efficiency. It's a very intersecting process to see.
The v10 you have is basically 2 of these put together from what I understand.
Let's see a big v10 build
Yes, correct!
Can"t wait to see what power it makes.
What a firm with fab mechanics absolutely brill.
Topman Paul that’s why you’re on the big money 👌🏻💪🏻
That engine builders a grafter, I didn’t see one cup of tea near his bench. Engine looks mint 👌
Nice choice of music
You guys are like wizards. This will be great in the transporter. Let’s get tail happy hahaha
Brilliant as ever guys 😁
Very much appreciate the time and effort you put into these vids. THANK YOU.
....then the time laps kicks in with a "drum & bass" vibe NICE.
A build with something like an ALH running veg oil with big power would be cool
Yeah and with no electrics 👌🏼 either from battery to starter motor or a pull start and this engine will go through doomsday
Great you sold 3 over the weekend nice job 👏👏

Cool video. Can see a lot of time has gone into building that engine.
That manifold gooch! 👌
Iv learned more from this video than 5 years of high school
That’s Diesel Art ‘Reyt there!’ 👌🏻😎
Nice 🙌🙌cool vid Ryan 😎looking forward to seeing it on the dyno 🙌😁😁😁😁👍
Thanks guys
Ayy up, that transporters isn’t going to hang about is it,fast as
Looking good! I've got the earlier AXE engine be interesting to see what it makes!
Need this done to my T5, but can't find anyone with the talent to do it north of the border :-(
Love a DS update 👌👍
Why did you choose a single turbo over compounding? Sounds counterintuitive for a vehicle that needs low end torque
We might do something later but this is a tried and tested route turbo wise, spool will be reasonable enough I think.
how much would a build 5 cyl turn key engine like this cost for a customer?
The liners are 1500quid so likely 15k+
@@DarksideDevelopments 1500 per liner? Or for a set of 5? I’m considering a build for a T4 2.5tdi
All 5. The iron block on the old engines is good. Look at the white Doka we did
@@DarksideDevelopments Imagine you put this in a 4motion mk5
15k. And there was me dreaming about that in my caravelle. Oh well !!
Great job as always guys.
Yes it could
Loving it lads!!! Can I please have 1🤣😂🤣😂 keep up all the hard work!!!
Absolutely crazy but I love it. hope it'll exceed 400 see what it brings. that'll bring cars to burger ring in no time. That's gonna pull a trailer to bits. I love the idea of timing gears and its hard to beat the 5 cyl sounds. wonder will transporter injector units work on a 1.9 engine. This content is fire its way better than porn lol I cant wait to see more of this.
Cheers, the injectors are the same shape but the offset angle of the nozzles different so they smoke like mad if you interchange either way ;)
Nice engine
My favourite motor of all time! My 05' transporter from Australia. 250,000km and going strong. Love working on them too.
Whats the parts cost on this motor Ryan? For everything pistons, injectors, cam, turbo, manifold?
Likely 10k in parts!
I like the 2.5 displacement and I really like the fact that it’s gear driven and can comfortably do around 300 hp. Would this be the motor you guys would recommend if I were swapping it into something or would there be something to better fit the bill?
Depends what into, if a V6 fits better use that!
hello. You mention that the cylinder lining goes out. As I understand, this was a problem more with the first generation, up until 2007 or so. But 2008 and after, this was corrected. Do you recommend to sleeve the cylinder lining in older generation engines that don't have this problem?
We would only do this if it is necessary. If they don't have this problem then probably no need.
Love your work peps always a joy,
Hopefully the american thing they are trying to push thru over there to stop any modifications for road built vehicles dont filter thru to us,
would ask what you peps think of it but reckon i know the answer and agree with ya, "they can go DO one" lol
🤘🏴👍
Plastic water pump propeller🤔 they do make an upgrade one !
No but the metal ones are not really an upgrade anyway
Any reason for no going with a solid flywheel?
Noise and on 5 cylinder will nave bad harmonics
How come you can run a filter straight onto the turbo with no maf sensor or do you re position it. I have the AXD model. Just purchased your large AEM FILTER. Do you guys do a new intake pipe for these engines/filter??? Love the engine builds 🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻
We put the MAF back in. Email us ;)
Ahhhh... love your videos! Wish i soon win some from lottery tickets.
Quality.
It looks like this could fit in a mk1 just like a 07k. Is this a feasible build in North America?
Everything would need importing!
That manifold alone should be flagged for porn 🔥
is it possible to do something like this with a touareg 2.5tdi R5? I think it's the same engine!!
Drop us an email to sales@darksidedevelopments.co.uk :)
What are the costs for a build like this? without air filter and downpipe.
Drop us an email to sales@darksidedevelopments.co.uk for costs
@14:46, for the timing adjustment just a question (if I may), I remember VAG request to set the pivot counter clock wise to 50Ncm (witch is misleading, why no putting 0.5Nm?!) with the special tool T10234. Is that absolutely compulsory? Do you have a rule of thumb to set this, looks like you set it by hand before torquing the main bolt. Thanks very much! Wonderful handcraft
We don't use the tool but we did have to adjust this as the head and block have been skimmed so the timing was 'out' as far as the ECU was concerned.
@@DarksideDevelopments 👍 thanks
Is that 5 cylinder diesel a 2 liter ore more? Was that engine only in T5? Is it possible to swap that engine in a T6 whit 207hp tdi engine?
2.5, fitted to Touareg and T5.
can i make something like this in a t4 Acv, Im tired of 102hp!! Great channel! cheers!
Yes, look at the Doka we did!
I’ve got a ACV in mine with 180bhp and it flies
@@dustybadger and without the axg turbo, what mods did you use? Did you touch turbo and ecu?
@@coupes3945 allard power pipe, PP1 injectors, hybrid turbo, bigger downpipe with a 2.5 inch straight through exhaust, subsequently re-fitted the cat to be legal. And it was put on a rolling road, the first time I drove it after it was like a group B rally car. Took it back and asked for low down torque. It did 300,000 miles tuned like that, and was excellent on fuel. Honestly the best money spent.
@@coupes3945 PP1 injectors, allard power pipe egr delete. Hybrid turbo, free flow down pipe and straight through 2.5 exhaust. And a day on a rolling road. It was like a group B rally car when I first got it back, returned it and asked for lazy low down torque as it is a working vehicle. It did over 300k in that state of tune. Oh and I did refit the cat as I wanted to be legal. Totally strangles it’s performance:-(
may i ask what it will cost if i order an engine like that in an crate and lett it schipp to the netherlands what will it cast me circa ?
Drop us an email to sales@darksidedevelopments.co.uk
So crazy
Hmmmmm , work vehicle!!! I’m guessing it’s all tax deductible. WIN / WIN
Search DD to pick up where I left off on a playlist, new video uploaded a minute ago. Naaaiccce
Who did you use t fit the liners, and have they lasted ok ?
Its still going strong, drop us an email and we can put you in touch with them!
@@DarksideDevelopments
Thank you
I cringed when he wiped that camshaft down with a red rag.
Clean rag, loves it
Clean or not cloth rags do not belong on any internal part. 30 year transmission rebuilder.
Great videos guys. Looking to put your turbo kit on mine. How does the Race cam feel under normal driving? Mines. 2.0 140 DSG Wondering if it’ll make it idle or drive rough under normal driving? Want power but also don’t want to affect normal low speed driving.
You won't notice any negatives.
what is the cost of making such an engine??
15k maybe?
NICE👍
How does the valvetrain work here? Im a bit confused...
Hydraulic tappet like a normal 8v
@@DarksideDevelopments thanks! Off to reading books I go.
@@DarksideDevelopments ah... got confused by the injector rockers
How much does it weigh with body on empty?
A bit over 2T with all the bits and bobs.
Hi great detail in your videos.any chance you could swap an engine on my t4 1999.2.5tdi acv.I have a good engine coming soon.just needs clean and putting cam belt kit on plus water pump .and diesel belt think.I has new clutch dmf fitted recently an alternator new I did_.local guy did clutch was from AUTODOC Germany.how much roughly if you can do please?steve in Cheshire .😀
Thanks! I'm afraid we're not currently undertaking customer engine swaps. These take up too much time in our workshop
Great, now I'm going to get gapped by a recovery truck with a car on tow
And maybe one on the trailer!
@@DarksideDevelopments I'll still get gapped by a few bus lengths 😅 running around in a 1.2 TSI for the time being and I miss driving a VAG diesel.
interesting, but quite wired explained.
Let me know why please?
@@DarksideDevelopments Don´t get me wrong.
It is a little back and forth, if you see just this video. From a Trainer perspective is is always a good idea to start with a small agenda, if in a series, with what is the background, what has been done.
What is the goal and how do you need to change parts to get there/why.
notification gang
Do these not run a tandem pump
Yes but we are nicking it from the truck as it's fairly new
👍👍
Engine code ?
BNZ BPC
does anyone maybe know where you can get a t3 exhuast manifold for a 1.9 tdi Alh
T3 on ALH is awful
@@DarksideDevelopments could you maybe explain me why im new to turbo’s
Email is better!
is that a fart a 2mins 1 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Possibly?
how come you keep on making videos of you building for people when you say you not building for people anymore ???
This is our project?
One of the worst engines build by vag. Especially 170hp versions
There are worse, 2.5 V6
@@DarksideDevelopments actually those werent that bad if you change the oil 8-9000km
Had a 2000 passat v6 tdi 4motion drove it 5years not a single scoring on the cams.
But if you stick to factory intervals you are in trouble.
Fuel pumps too!
