fuck that extra 40lbs and more shifts.

these things work on 4 bangers. 4g63’s and other import pros are using them. this is all uncharted waters here for the 1.8Turd. Im just gunna roll with it and see what happens.

never the less, PG, TH, or what ever… what about the converter? What are your thoughts on that because of the lack of tq until 5500rpm?

noooo. I make 277HP per liter, while your dumpers 150 per liter with a turbo on them. 1.8T’s never loose.

for my reference.

I have been looking all over for other 4 cylinder drag auto rwd projects. the 4G63 guys have 2 solutions I found already, this Bill guy here and Petes scrotum swinging clan. they have many glides and th350’s working great. even the 200R4’s are fun for a street car but need more to hold power.

Pete or Brett, I know you both doing clutch and flywheels soon on the tdi’s, can you confirm also the TDI crank bolt pattern is the same as the 1.8T?

It’s the same pattern because you use g60 flywheels on both 1.8t and tdi’s
