Transformation of pleasant family car to politically incorrect monster

[gedu]

Well, as parts are on order, I might just as well start a thread about my UrS4 (I know, I know, this is S2 forum )

I have been wanting to do a rebuild for my engine 6months after I got my car, now 18 months after I got it I'm finally ordering parts for it. Plan is to transform a largish family car to decidedly politically incorrect monster. In order to achive this I'm going change rods, all bottom bearings, install single-mass flywheel with uprated clutch, get chargecooling sorted and so on. So what's on menu?

• Garrett 3071R/K26 hybrid, .86ar
• Catcams camshafts
• Scat rods
• "lightweight" hydraulic lifters
• ARP studs for bottom and top
• Wagner Exhaust manifold
• PWR 5"x6" Chargecooler with all needed bits
• Some head work because of the cams
• Steel single-mass flywheel
• Spec stage 3+ clutch

Car already has some modifications to it, namely bosch 044 fuel pump, Siemens deka 006 injectors and of course VEMS. At the same time I will change timing belt and other basic maintenance will be performed.

We shall see what mayhem ensues from this

Interesting project you have indeed

You have already VEMS running with the K24?
I am also looking forward to you experiences with the Steel single-mass flywheel and
Spec stage 3+ clutch from 034

[gedu]

Yeah, I have VEMS running the stock turbo+manifold+intercooling, in that flaming smiley in my signature is link to pictures and dyno results

[quattrostyle]

nice car, but it could do with some lowering springs

[Bram]

Was that dyno done in the year 2000 with VEMS????????

[gedu]

nope, those dyno figures are from January 2008. First figure shows aprox flywheel power, second figure with afr and boost show power on wheels

The car has been lowered after those pictures were taken, it just hasn't been "presentable" after that workout

very nice specs,good choice of the 82 AR.
why are you choosing a single mass flywheel?If you are planning to use the car for more than just track or race,then the doublemass will be more subtle and less vibration will come into the car.+more durable

[gedu]

Well, primary reason is cost, the clutch package will have sprung clutch disk, so I should be able to use it on street as well. Flywheel and clutch package are in fact ment for 3b s2, but are "bolt-on" for AAN+01E.

If I had bronze balls, I'd go for delrin motor and tranny mounts with unsprung flywheel and (sinter)clutch. But alas, I don't and am going for 034 streetdensity mounts and sprung clutch disk.

Did you hook the VEMS your self or did you drive to Teppo's place?

[gedu]

I drove to Teppo's place for the install, slept the night and headed to sporttiauto in morning

First part to arrive was Wagner exh. manifold:

Decicions decicions, I might be able to buy a new Wagner intake manifold for 600€ (new as in unused). Should I go for it or not...

[edit]
Decided to go for it

Cams arrived last week, 2,5 weeks after ordering. Was prepared for 5-6 weeks wait for them.

Brake pads

Got new Brake Pads last week:



Why is it saying S*AT on one box?





Now waiting for new brake disks, Black Diamond Combi on order. Wanted only grooved, but for some reason those are really hard to find
