  • starting discussion on the use of new VW 2.5L 5Cyl in Small Chassis

    Iroz Motorsports (Hank) is now swapping and building parts to put the newer 2.5l vw (and audi) 5 cyls into our cars:



    Talking about a golf with haldex and this motor that runs 10second quarter mile runs
    "on low boost, he made 430awhp at 16psi in a haldex converted car. That is crazy nuts. In the thread on the vortex, he said he gets 12psi by 3600 with a standard 35r non billet. I saw an honest 500rpm drop in spool with my billet, so it makes a guy wonder what this motor would be like with a billet turbo."

    "The dyno above is at 16PSI, but he ran that quarter mile at 24psi and made 599.4awhp. For reference, on a better compressor wheel on my 35r, it took me 35psi to break the 600whp mark on a 2.2L."

    Interesting discussion points:
    Long blocks for this new engine are around 500 bucks and readily available
    engine is shorter and moves the engine back several inches, allowing for more room for front mount radiators in small chassis or big intercoolers in large chassis. also better distributing weight
    as stated above, spool is much quicker, probably due to both the improved head flow and obviously the displacement

    Go!

    *edit, the videos aren't imbedding correctly so i added the links

                in the USA they are very common, Much more so then the old 20v engines. They are in Jettas (boras), rabbits (similar to the golf), and i believe even the beetles. another variation of this engine is in the TT-RS

                        a quick search on ebay.co.uk doesn't show any results for that engine, very interesting, here stateside they are very easy to find and average around $500 (usd) for the long block.
