Ramee's Tiguan Build Thread 155KW DSG

[Suffolk]

Haha.. Yes yes I too waiting for some people upgrading/selling their cars so that I can salvage few parts from their cars

If only you could get some sponsorship!

Also on another note, if you are after a sprint booster let me know? Selling mine, only used it twice. Intercooler hoses popped off, too much suction from the giant, Wagner.

That's a bit of a shame. I like my Sprint Booster - it improves throttle response off the line.

That should be reason enough Ramee

Here we go! Thanks buddy.. but these days I may not be able to put it to good use + funding issues. Also car spins four wheels in wet sometimes in third gear!!
But based on APR V3 tune reviews some people are going for spring boosters so may be I may need one in the future but then I will get tigger73's one if your one has sold out

Anyway couldn't you still find a solution to those hoses ? That is bad considering having such a awesome intercooler and can't use it to full potential. Also I have a suggestion.. how about you keep the spring booster and sell that giant Wagner to me ? haha!

I think you may need some new tyres then.... and perhaps some throttle control.

They do come up now and then in the parts for sale area so if you want one keep your eye out. Mines staying on my car for now. Definite improvement. Maybe not so good for fuel economy though....

I think it's down to some custom heavy duty hoses and big hose clamps.

Now that's a good suggestion Ramee... problem solved

Yeah I think I need new tires. That is why I try to get some new wheels and tires at the same time, Still spin is totally controllable though, it only happens when I go wide open throttle and around 4000 RPM.

I finally fixed the hoses. With some cutting and sealing some Forge hoses and some heavy duty clamps, it will do until I get some custom aluminum piping made. Will keep the sprint booster and give it a test run tomorrow.
