Glad to say that I've actually driven the car these past two days, to break the motor in and clutch, and I can say it feels amazingly stronger. I was not able to get into boost since we're running a base file and we had to just take it easy on the clutch but around town the car is simply great. Currently its back in the shop to re-torque the head bolts and start the tuning. Originally I had no intention to run water/meth but with my upcoming move to Arizona, no 93 in AZ, and scorching summers I decided that running meth would actually be beneficial..... My massive intercooler should help also lol
Hopefully next week we will have some actual numbers. Aiming to break 400whp but only time will tell. Hope this will be some motivation for some more b7ers to start going BT....we need more BT threads and less "what rims/what mod should I get/do".
Made a little video of a cold start.... a bit rough but things will be ironed out within the final tune. Enjoy.
You'll easily break that 400whp mark. I know on my little b5 and 1.8 displacement. I've seen 427whp on w/m on only a GT3076. A 2.0 GT35 on meth with conservative tune should easily see 430+whp. Look forward to the numbers! GLWD

Awesome. It's interesting how different piston manufactures go about getting the desired c/r. I have a set of JE 9.5:1 and they have no visible dish to them like your CP's do.
Sweet keep us posted. Eastwick should be getting his car back this weekend or monday with results and I'm expecting mine about wednsday of next week.
We will have some footage of everything. Going to put together a nice video with results when everything is done, eastwick has a new dslr to test out haha
Thats sick slim. I didn't even know you were doing a build. How long did your build take? If they are getting 400 whp on that other thread with no internals or meth, with the right tune you should be able to surpass that by quite a bit, I would think. No lpf issues?

We started doing research back in 2008 before we actually began anything, i'd say we began work around april 2009. I had to learn all about the FSI motor and kept this 200 page book with me at all times lol, I still have it actually. Fast forward almost 2 years later and a lot of unplanned parts/circumstances, we're finally close to what I wanted to achieve. Its an ultimate sleeper.
LPFP is not the issue at this point, I feel that we're going to hit our limit at the RS4 injectors.
I feel that we'd be able to break 400whp without the meth, Only reason i'm running the kit is because 93oct is not available in arizona and it gets HOT...heatsoak ftl.
Hope the tune goes well, it seems everyone that goes with a custom big turbo setup can never get it tuned worth a damn. Excited to see this beast out in AZ!

Thats not true Vast's BT tune is working great as they just dynoed their B7 at 400WHP and mine is going to be dynoed hopefully in the next few weeks, fingers crossed I can near what they put down then get my ass up there for the fine tuning.......

The RS4 injectors are 480cc, correct? I would think you would make them out fairly quick. Why not upgrade to a larger injector?
There is simply nothing else right now. We've explored MANY options. The only alternative will run about $4000 for a set and from what I've been hearing they're not all that much better, I only know of 1 car running them.
We've even tried modifying the stock injectors
Once more people start going bt we hope to see something eventually I hope, right now the market really isn't there IMO

Guess I should have said everyone I know out in Arizona that has had a BT + custom tune. No one out here really does VAST tunes, so that might explain it

Didn't realize the market was that small for the B7 plateform. I'm very familiar with the B5/B6 and starting to look into the B7 a bit more (to be well rounded in my thirst for knowledge). I hope you get all things squared away and break that 400whp marker. The inj will be a big factor.

I haven't really heard of a solid tuning shop out in AZ. Evoms does rock solid work on the porsche but idk about they're capabilities with the audi platform (not bashing them).

They are 480cc which totally sucks for a turbo this size. We have looked into other FSI platforms,but the other injector options aren't any better. There are a few companies out there "claiming" they are working on injector solutions, but i'll believe it when I see it. These engines have great potential and it seems like the only thing figured out right now is an injector solution.

I just don't see why the B7 platform doesn't have larger injectors yet. The car has been out for 5+ years and from day one, tuners should have known the market will BOOMIG for any Turbo Charged Audi. For an HTA35, I wouldn't go any smaller than an 830cc inj for my platform. What kind of numbers have you seen with your setup? Just hard to imagine a turbo setup with improper fueling. Really is a shame.

Forgot to mention that the FSI is also a pain in the arse.

Why not run a 5th injector set up? I believe Dimitris is

It isn't as simple as just adding a 5th injector. I spoke with 034 about it, and they said that for a car that would be daily driven the car just won't run smoothly. People always think that by just adding things it solves problems. Ideally, you want your car to be smooth out of boost and a pleasure to drive. 034 isn't the only tuner who told me the car would run rough, Mark at Autospeed also said the same thing. There are rumors going around on Vortex that there is a company designing some higher flowing injectors along with a fuel rail. I would be happy with just some injectors for now.

I should have a dyno by the beginning of this week. I am also surprised no company has looked into developing some higher flowing injectors with the number of BT GTI's out there.
Since I will be running 91 octane in AZ we've decided to tune the car on 87 Pump + 87 pump w/meth since the 91 here and the 91 in az are in no way comparable. Mark has tuned cars on 91 octane out west and he knows exactly what its capable of.
93 ftw!!! I'm going to have to iron out the tune on AZ 91 pump. Car won't be performing at 100% since we're running this shitty 89 but oh well, Not going to post dyno numbers until I get over to AZ and fix the tune.
