    '16 Big Turbo Golf R running Ethanol Blend

    I'm in CO so definitely get some cold days here. What Ford you referring to that is blowing past RS3? Those things are brutal on a simple tune and bolt ons on stock turbo.

    As I know you are aware you could address that! :) MPI/LPFP/EQT Vortex Std housing/UM tuned!

    '16 Big Turbo Golf R running Ethanol Blend

    Nice man! I'm a data junkie so this is right up my alley. What's been the rough difference in spool between the IS20 and IS38 (i.e rpm you hit peak boost w/ each)? Seems like the IS38 may suffer a bit since the GSW/Alltracks have the 1.8 vs 2.0. We get hit hard on spool at elevation as well...

    '16 Big Turbo Golf R running Ethanol Blend

    unfortunately that's not the case. I mentioned both corrected and uncorrected dyno #'s in my original post. The standard correction #'s of 499whp are roughly what my car would throw down at sea level. 414whp is what my car does up here at altitude so less power = slower times. Drag times site...

    Don't have a solid 1/4 yet. This is my best but on less than optimal, bumpy road. 6400ft DA on this run. You can see by graph I had to lift right before hitting left hand sweeper, so trap speed is ridiculous due to my lift. I'm not at all a drag strip guy but I do plan to get it to Bandimere...

    '16 Big Turbo Golf R running Ethanol Blend

    Good call and will do. It's currently up on Quickjack awaiting a variety of suspension mods (RSB installed, but still need to install coilovers (in transit), camber plates, lower control arms) and then from there new rotors, some DS2500 pads, and RS3 brake ducts.

    '16 Big Turbo Golf R running Ethanol Blend

    Man! So sweet. I have a old 4runner that I have as a daily, but would love, love to replace it with a Alltrack or GSW and tune it without going too crazy. I think my wife would kill me though. For the $ they are tough to beat...plus a big one...manual option. Noticed yours is sans the sunroof...

    '16 Big Turbo Golf R running Ethanol Blend

    The "corrected" 499whp figure I gave basically provide the HP you would expect to see at sea level. I also know that it's accurate because there are many mk7 Golf R's/Audi S3's/GTIs (all basically same engine) with same mods as I have dynoing at those 15-18% higher figures that are sea level (or...

    '16 Big Turbo Golf R running Ethanol Blend

    Yup thanks. Both the ones I'm looking at...especially the RL OC. Guys have been modifying the RL OC a bit with larger 13-19 row Setrabs since the RL is only 10 row.

    '16 Big Turbo Golf R running Ethanol Blend

    Love the Sportwagens/Alltracks! If VW would have sent the Estate version of the R over here to the States I most likely would be in that car. Are you on any of the VW specific forums? Would love to see your build if you have specs detailed on Vortex or golfmk7. I'm literally waiting for first...

    '16 Big Turbo Golf R running Ethanol Blend

    Hi BITOG Members, First post on BITOG, but I'm a long time/occasional lurker over the past 15+ yrs. I see there was a recent post for a '19 Golf R with some recommendations, but that car sounds like it is stock and the factory fill oil is a different, lighter weight on the newer gen Golf R's vs...
