FAQ: VR6 -12V & 24V Info sharing

[Haenszel20v]

make sure you get the machined down flywheel bolts from 034 too...... they cost just as much as OEM bolts, so might as well order from them.

[nefkntym]

They are in there as well. When I asked about options for the bolts, I asked if they were from 034. Got everything in a one stop shop or mouse click. What ever!!!

[nefkntym]

Got the oil pan a few days ago. Thanks Issam.

When you made 640whp on the dyno, what was your torque?

[nefkntym]

Does anyone know what IE/Eurospec rods are rated for? Torque wise?

[Sfarooq]

This is a siiiiiiick build.

[bigern45]

^^gosh i love the VR6 torque curve... 525 wtq from 4500-6500.. must be insane..

[nefkntym]

Hey buddy thanks.

[bigmtnskiman]

Wait a couple of weeks
I am making a baffled pan for the VR6 engine now

is it ready?

[bigmtnskiman]

does anyone have a BDF block only?

[MLJS4]

i hate this

[12vr6]

issam will i be ablee to use your kit to fit the vr6 in my fwd a4? also, i have the same concerns as most of these other guys not so much about keeping ac as i am used to texas heat and connecticut humidity but more so about my cluster looking like a christmas tree so what i am getting at is, can i swap the vr6 into the fwd chasis with your kit (i plan on using a quattro transmission just without the AWD) and will you be making anything so that 1.8t users can keep there cluster alive. not to sound lazy because i can do wiring i built a 16v aba turbo corrado using your stage IIc ecu, but if i dont have to because you already have or are in the process of that would brighten my day.

thank you

I answered your AIM message...I think i found a good one but send me an email about it.

Are you working with a B5 or B6?

[MLJS4]

Has anyone bought a south bend clutch for their vr6 swap?

[wdbdy2000s4]

^^gosh i love the VR6 torque curve... 525 wtq from 4500-6500.. must be insane..

That's a single turbo troque curve.

If you look at subis and evos with 35rs or bigger you'll see the same thing.

[CRAIG1MACK]

Hope this plug is appropriate... I have decided to sell my dream swap. Originally purchased to swap into my B6 A4 Quattro, but I'm getting married soon and would like to use the money for other things.


2.8L 24V VR6
[LIST]
This is a complete engine from intake manifold to oil pan. I also have the ECU, full engine wiring harness, fuel rail w/ injectors, coilpacks, gauge cluster, and even the ignition w/ key.

Price: $1900

come on anyone?

A southbend clutch?

Not to many. George picked one up. I am not sure if he is going to use when he gets back from basic. Regular clutches wont last to long if try to make any type of power due to the weight of cars and once you get past a flash on the V6, the motor makes torque pretty fast. The same is true with the VR6. Having said that, that is why a lot of the focus is on twin-disk clutches.

Southbend makes a great clutch, I know people that have using them since the 90s. They don't have a magic bullet though, so what are your goals for your car?

[MLJS4]

I know i know just doing a head spacer, nothing crazy thats why im not going with a twin disk i was so bored i still opened up my vr6 just doing a nice clean rebuilt , i know since im already there i should do rods and pistions but what ever i dont care 420-500 hp is fun for me plus i got 4 vr6 motors laying around

[nefkntym]

Another question. What size turbine housing was this with and what boost/psi for max figures?

[NYCVR6]

.68 T4 housing on the billet 6765.. Boost, im not 100%, but we ran up to 35 psi i think.. Still trying to figure out the cam timing on this motor to squeeze out the extra power.. Got cams in the motor and valve springs.. Going to put a .81 housing on probably, we tried the .96, but it was way too laggy.

That's what I was afraid of. I have a .96 t4 6765 sitting in a box. I started thinking over the weekend that is going to be way to big and you just confirmed that. :) I was thinking the .82/.81 would be a lot better.

Says expired.

[Sigma 3]

It was an add for an s4 shell. Does anybody have a tubular mani besides big boost?

[Sscott09]

Well I am in the process of pulling my 2.7 out and most of the stage 3 parts are sold. I am still on the fence about whether to go 12v or 24v. I have a fab guy lined up to do any work that is going to be needed. I plan on using the precision 6765. I want to run low 10s and close to 140 traps

[nefkntym]

Buy as many parts as possible before you completely rip your car apart. Just my $ 0.02.

[Sscott09]

Why is that? I dont need the k04s or supporting mods anymore. I will not run k04s from now on. If this falls through I am going tial 770

[nefkntym]

I say that because there have been people that rip their car apart, sell stuff off, buy a vr6, don't finish, sell it and then just have a rolling shell.


Tial 770 will be cheaper. So are Vast GTs.

hahaha, that's gotta suck.

[nefkntym]

I know, that would suck. I won't take mine apart till I just need odds and ends. You still coming out?

[Sscott09]

im determined to have a vr6!! lol and how is the tial 770 build any cheaper. Arent you looking at 15k plus because you still need to completely build the 2.7 top and bottom to get the max power from it.

[Haenszel20v]

Dec 2-6th.

well...

[nefkntym]

Not sure. Does it matter? You can put down well in excess of 600 whp on a cast iron manifold.

[Ill 3.0]

Still no B6s to go through with this? Issam, are you aware of any?

[Sigma 3]

Not sure. Does it matter? You can put down well in excess of 600 whp on a cast iron manifold.

I am aware of how much power it can make, thanks. I am curious about the different ways in wich the torque and horse power can be delivered.

Well, are you talking about 12v or 24? 034 had a tubular on a 24v. USP had a tubular on a 12v, you know about BigBoost. There are people on vortex that have VRTs with tubular as well.
