Hi all,

I'm Mike and i'm an RTOC member looking for a fresh forum,looks like i've found one here!

I have a 1988(phase 2) 5GTT in silver with 99.9% BB Tuning parts. She's 207.6 bhp and 222lb/ft torque @23psi !! I prefer the original look with a nice not too low stance with everything uprated for better performing parts.

When i find out how,i'll upload some pics and a spec list of my 5. Well done on a great club/forum and i look forward to chatting with you all!

Peace,

Mike 8)

Hi, welcome here! 8)

We use Nm and Bar for the specs.

These are very nice numbers!

23 psi = 1,5 bar for the people who are going to ask ;)

Hi Abel,i'll copy the spec so you can see what has been done to the engine all by BBPT.

ENGINE
BBPT Gen 4 Turbo(T25)
BBPT GT Spec Cam
BBPT HL Valve springs
BBPT High boost Charge Cooler
ERL Water injection system
SFS complete Hose kit
BBPT T304 stainless steel Turbo cross over pipe
BBPT Hard Pipe kit
Forge Alloy Carb Top
Forge Grp A DV
Magnecor 8mm HT leads
BBPT High Pressure fuel pump/filter
BBPT Silicon Turbo oil drain Hose
BBPT carb adjustment/RR setup
Forge in car boost controller kit
Turbo boost guage
BBPT 75oC Low Temp thermostat
BBPT Cold Air intake kit
BBPT Kevlar Heatshield

Min 10psi-Max 23psi

There you go,that should explain things a little better!

And injection is a concideration,but i need more proof that it is actually worth all that expence,because it is really expencive!

mike, at BB it's expensive, we've got a club sponsor over here that does it for a quarter of BB's price.

I've got some links you might like ;)

http://www.mbcarperformance.nl/catalog/ ... ts_id=2932


1,5 bar gives 226 pk (210 pk wheels) torque 320 Nm.


Might not seem impressive, but with your current setup I know they can get a lot more out of it!

that looks awesome,the kit looks well designed(whatg i've seen so far over here looks a little shabby!!)

I would really like to get more information on this,do you know if they supply and fit the fuel injection?? I thinking of possibly driving over to them and leaving the car with them to do the work,would this be possible?? I'm VERY interested!!

Tom,i've been into VW's for about 18years and only 1 year with the R5GTT and the one thing that has allways been the same is the SERIOUSLY LONG WAITING TIME for Silicon hoses! Weather it's Samco or SFS,no matter what make of car you allways have to wait a longe time for them.I waited 3 monthes for my SFS's
