AAN into Ur quattro, 400-450 Bhp Target

[prj]

Yes, the turbo is completely maxed, it's boosting with the wastegate shut almost the entire time.

The torque curve is nice. The power figures are interesting, because I can see from the first logs, that your car got quite a bit quicker after we were done mapping it, so it must be quicker than it was before.

You can always pressure test it, if you think something is wrong, but IMO about 400 is what this turbo can flow - at least on paper. I was surprised at the 420 MRC figure myself to be honest.

Interstingly, Damo M who has the urquattro with 2.5L stroker suggested that his dyno results at MRC were almost 80bhp or so higher than the figures he recorded elesewhere....

That is what he said, not me trying to stir.

That's alright, it's a known fact that different dynos read very differently... a dyno is mostly a tuning tool to compare changes, not an absolute measurement tool.
The car got faster and better to drive, and that's what matters.

As said its about how it feels as opposed to pub talk figures, graph looks very respectful to me...

Must admit I'm enjoying mine more and more with the new turbo set up, in fact I have turned the boost down to 1.8bar and its mighty strong enough when ever you call for it.

Have fun...

Been having fun, but I keep daydreaming about other cars too.

Not sure I could bring myself to do it, but what do you guys think I could sell my car for?

Not exactly the ideal time to sell.

Quattro values have firmed up quite a lot recently trhough.

Of course the scary bit is how much I have spent on the car in the 6 years that I have had it...

[Rocco]

why do you want to sell this monster? it has to be fast¡ very fast¡

and yeah,not the best times to sell anything.

prices have doubled in the last 4 years,a pal sold his converted wr(to 20vt)1986 model for 9k last week,allthough its a strange world with these cars,a lot of people like them to be standard(not me tho)

About 18-22k I should think .
But I think your nuts to do so .

[Erikk]

Really nice urquattro you got there

lol.......18-22k,is VERY optimistic,you will be lucky to get half

no disrespect to a good car

[david]

Really nice urquattro you got there

[Error404]

I think you will live to regret it! You will get another car and then just start modding again... it's an addition of sorts.
flog the focus instead

[URquattroGus]

I would like to think it's closer to 20 than 9 grand. If you look past the mods, this is a very straight car that still at least looks original. There are plenty of duffers out there that's for sure.

If I do put it up for sale then I will be looking at something very different, such as a 1965 Ford Falcon Sprint, maybe with a highly modded engine or some kind of crate v8

I'm such a car nut that my mind is always on the go about various different cars with my"imaginary" budget

I have always thought mine is worth about 20k if people want standard that is fair enough, but their is a big market for non standard especially when you drive a non standard one vs standard.

I don't think I will part with mine, the v8 won't do it for you.. I have a v8 cobra and a v8 gt40 neither are anywhere close to the ur and if they were the suspension design would probably kill you. To be fair the gt40 can handle and it has circa 400bhp but traction is a problem...

Any way it's your choice get on and enjoy whatever you do..

Valid points Darren, I think I have a bit of a V8 and Classic itch that I want to scratch though. The quattro is so fast I sometimes wonder if I would have just as much fun in something with lots of feel good factor, head turning looks and V8 rumble.

I always think that a lot of cars sound like a good idea, but you never really know till you have actually drive one, which is easier said than done for most classics.

I rode shotgun in a Shelby GT350 at a circuit once, and I was impressed how together it felt, the 289 V8 revved quite well and the handleing seemed quite balanced. The Falcon is also campaigned with a lot of sucess in historic racing.

GT40 is a dream car for me, although I suspect the practicalities of using one must be a nightmare!?

Still, I don't know if I can bare to do it! I have invested so much time money and effort into this car to make it my own.
