230bhp+ Caddy 2k Van with a few choice mods!

[ryanp]

You have all seen the Darkside Jetta - http://www.vwwatercooled.org.au/foru...pds-63946.html

Thought it was about time I posted a topic about my other project. Its just about finished now, getting the stickers on today and drag racing on Sunday at Santa Pod, anything in the 14's will do me as its a heavy bugger!! Taking the Jetta too with a few tweeks so hope to beat the 13.8 we did last year in that!






(steering wheel changed since!!)

Bought it as a Boggo 1.9 TDI 105PS 5 Speed with a blown engine. Over the last few months when I have had time (only a week or two work in it really) I converted it to a 2.0 16v BKD Engine, 6 Speed Box, big turbo kit, widetrack etc

Here is the website link, will keep that updated if we do anything else:

It will eventually get a GTB2260VK turbo and Race PD Injectors so 300hp+ the same as the Jetta now, but I like the way the smaller turbo spools instantly so its staying like this while I use it for picking parts up!!

Let me know what you think!

Loving the colour of the rims, looks awesome.

Come on Preeny, we are relying on you to keep up our Aussie rep for the caddy's.

caddy is screaming OEM+

[GoLfMan]

wicked, now thats a Caddy with some balls.

How come you didn't stay with the 8v TDI? Apart from the fact its not as easy to get 300hp

[VWindahouse]

Insane ride mate, great work all round with this dub
