FAQ: VR6 -12V & 24V Info sharing

[NYCVR6]

Is there a particular reason for using an S4 over an A4 for a VR6 12V or VR6 24V swap other than having a 6spd tranny or am I missing something?

I already had the s4.. But you can use either..personally id use the s4 anyway for the nice touches it comes with from the factory..

Same reason why I chose the S4 to do this swap rather than the A4, the trim level (dash, cluster etc)...

I'M speechless....

The B5 is going somewhere...

The car sounds amazing.

Do you guys have links to the intake manifold discussion? I had a VR6 from 00-04 and read a few of the debates back then. i didn't know about the cams.

I really dont know what is your problem, keep on Bad rep me bud

I really think you need to first read before acting like you do.

Im really excited about the PROGRESS the B5 PLATFORM is making, I couldnt care less if it's an A4, S4, VR swapped, for me it's the same car period.

034 trapped 148 mph, Criss 146, I did 140... (Cant wait for Justin's)

I dont know if you guy fully realize what it needs

Google What chevy's and Ford have to look like when they reach those speeds

They dont look stock like our cars for sure...

I guess most of you understands that, but for some it needs more explaning

VR SWAP

I'm still looking for the information too, definitive at that. I sent some PMs over @ Vortex but never got any replies. Here's where some of the debate is:

That should really waken up the 24V motors.

[onemoremile]

Nice. Thanks!

[NYCVR6]

Car is on the dyno as we speak.. Not posting numbers yet, but 4 tires are breaking loose on the dyno.

[revhards4]

I can't wait to see some vids

[NYCVR6]

Well we had some issues we need to figure out.. We made 640+whp so far.. I will be at show and go at englishtown tomorrow to make some probably easy shake down runs..

[revhards4]

640whp!! yikes...I smell 140mph easy when you get those minor kinks worked out.

[GaroBlu]

Hmm.... I have a 2002 VR6 12v sitting in a GTI in the states doing nothing....

Nah, I couldn't. I like the VW too much to rip it out.

[NYCVR6]

640whp!! yikes...I smell 140mph easy when you get those minor kinks worked out.

Rough day, 4 hours sleep.. First pass rad hose blows off after a bog launch, and i coast to a 12.0@120.. Bogged because i forgot to put the pedal to the floor to activate the 2step.. Second pass, 2 step working great + freshly vht'd track = snapped axle.. Go in pits replace axle with a spare i brought... Go back out, decide not to snap another axle, launch without 2 step, bog to a 2.2 60 foot.. by the time the car spooled up and i got moving, i ran a pathetic 12.2@127.9... Didnt even get to shift into 5th on any pass yet.. Was running low boost to just get a clean pass, didnt work out. Car is going back to dyno soon and track.. I have some vids, but im lazy right now. Sorry to let you guys down, but still working out the bugs.. Met some cool audizine people though.

[BENI_BOY]

even tho the car didnt run to its full potential, the car is def a beast. the car just dips and moves like a rocket and even sounds like one! justin it was nice meeting you.. real cool guy.

snapin axles like woah!

[Big Boost]

i ran a pathetic 12.2@127.9

Um-m, you ran a 12.2 at 128mph!!! You have to look at your MPH more than anything along with your 60 foot times. You for sure will be doing 10's once you sort everything out.

I know im just hard on myself.. We did rush the car together, the first time i really got on the car was my first pass, and we have some other things to sort out.

[GURUMAN]

[Jake39454]

You did well today considering the variables

[NYCVR6]

How do you like them EV14's? Are they all they're cracked up to be?

[OneSickSedan]

Shit man I feel like it was yesterday that you said you were gonna do this. All of a sudden 640 whp and running on the track. I think this was the quickest completed project I've witnessed on AZ. You did some nice work fast. Congrats and can't wait for more.

[NYCVR6]

No complaints yet.. Everyone i know running them loves them.

Thanks... We did get it together pretty fast despite running into a bunch of problems along the way..

[Clint@R.A.I.]

Good stuff, are you gonna pick up some Audi 80 axles or whatever the dude in Poland runs?

[NYCVR6]

Good stuff, are you gonna pick up some Audi 80 axles or whatever the dude in Poland runs?

Im looking into my options for axles.. Do you have any more info on those axles and availability? Thanks

[NYEuroTuner]

Justin, do you have any vids of your dash while the car is running? I just want to get a sense of how functional the dash is.

I'm a few weeks away from starting mine up, and I jsut wanted to see if you did any custom splicing, de-pinning to the original harness to get the Dash to run without Christmas lights.

Thanks

[URHank]

Car looks great. Very fast build, and nice results. 128mph traps are fast anyway you put it. Good job. I look forward to axle updates!
