Ya went for a look see, best time was 11.2 @ 216 km/h my ECU is still acting up

but tune has found problem and should have it fixed soon

No because 2 zeds... Derr...

So 4 oil coolers then...

its all a teething process unfortunately. Still a good time. easily a 10sec car once you get the bugs out.

and Oh so Angry sounding to boot. It is all trial and error until success is achieved.

throw some hoosier or MT slicks on the thing, soften up the rear shocks/springs and cam/tune the engine. auto box, 270kw + traction off the line, should get you damn close.

I really need to get down there and have a crack with mine later on in the year [Next Year]

do you care about you clutch? if you want a clean launch, slip the shit out of it with lots of revs through first (easier on dif and drive shafts) with some 16" wheels with slicks or drag suitable semis.

Im currently looking into some 17" or 16" wheels to purchase for this..

if you are ok with modding the rear calipers (need to shave a little bit off to fit them) you can run 15" rims which opens up a whole new world of rubber options for drag use.

There is some MT 15" rims that are mint for same on FB. set for $1000

Just tagged you in the post on book face. 5x114.3 though so you would need 5 stud conversion. get conversion then we go halves and have two each lol

    • Keeping in mind that for most people this is a week to month long job!
    • Its also worth mentioning that 30 years after it left the factory and god knows how many missed oil changes since, there is every possibility that one or more lifters are ticking because they are sticky/gummed up. To resolve that you need to pull the cams then pull each lifter, disassemble, clean, reassemble, soak in oil and re-install, and they should come up good as new.
    • What air filter are you running? Is it a panel filter in the stock air box, or a pod filter? Is the air filter the type that is oiled?   If you unplug the IACV, what rpm does the engine idle at?
    • Reading through the engine service manual their advice is do a cylinder balance test. Unplug one injector at a time and see if the idle drops a consistent RPM. You can also do this using a Consult cable which is easier. They also call for unplugging the power transistor, then with the engine off and the fuel rail unhooked from the manifold verifying that you have good fuel flow (even injection, no dripping/leaks, etc) when you twist the CAS by hand. Also verify the spark by pulling the spark plugs and allowing the plugs to ground and turning the CAS by hand. I would also start doing the sensor checks and idle valve checks in service manual. Make sure the MAF tests reasonably, the intake air regulator is sane, etc. You may have to get new spark plugs.
    • This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.
