[quote="oldskoolz"][quote="Edward"]Excellent. I'm surprised you still have the air conditioning pump still in there. Would be interesting to see how the EW12 likes to rev with it being a longer stro ... |

I Timed the cams in a way that there is enough clearance when the cam is fully advanced so no notching the pistons needed. The cams are Catcams 4901805, so much more lift than the original GTI180 cams ... |

With this spec cams:http://www.pipercams.co.uk/pipercams/www/product.php?pid=GTI2BP285
I would suspect a broader torque curve and much less peaky nature of the engine. May I suggest someone to look a ... |

Yes, of course. I didn't say that the engine is rubish, just that the 180 is a much better option to start with, and not all tuners know how to tune vvt (most think it is just an on/off thing, like wi ... |

What makes you think that the longman head is better than the 180 head? Just asking about some evidence, or is it just because it is "Longman's"?
About vvt cams. No need in fitting vvt cams if you ... |

[quote="Lateral_Soup"]So in theory you could fit a 180 head onto a 138 and gain 40 odd bhp with all standard engine parts? Don't think I'm tryingto take anything away from the build, as I've said the ... |

Not entirely true. It is more difficult to make 138 with good power and wide torque spread. You can do that with an almost stock 180 easy. We've made a little over 200hp with almost stock engine, with ... |

Not built yet. It will have a gti180 head with catcams 805. More potential with bigger displacement, but we will see. |

I'm not denying that larger diameter torsion bars won't help, I always encourage people to go stiffer if they have changed front springs, but the dampers play a huge role here, and driving both koni a ... |

I think that 1.9d tensioner would do the trick. You just need a stud from dw8 engine, to bolt it to, and that is it. 0820.17 is the part number of the stud for the tensioner. |
