    Vento coupe conversion 1.8T GT3071R

    Hey guys, just joined and thought I'd share this Vento coupe we built over the last year and a half.
    Running MK4 1.8T with Garret GT3071R turbo, Eurodyne 630cc file, LSD 02J box, 6 point roll cage, MK4 dash and the list goes on.




    I have a full build thread on another site, don't know if you guys allow links like that but let me know and I can post it if ya'll wanna read it

    Here's the link to the full build
    http://www.vask.org.nz/index.php/topic,9695.0.html
    Its a bit of a trawl through 60 odd pages but there's loads more detailed pics there and worth the read.

    I have a pair of 2 door MK2 rear quarter panels already drilled apart for a 2 door Jetta I was going to do, won't be using them now as I'm doing a MK4 Bora 4 motion 2 door instead
    You want the panels as they won't be used now........?

    LOL, forgot about that. Limited to 15psi so far and lots of wheelspin already even with an lsd.

    Dyno run today, 214.9kw @ wheels running 15psi boost.
    A little lean at the top end but a play with the Maestro software should sort that, keen to push a bit harder now..............
