custom water cooler
K&N air filter
MB intercooler
tooth belt drive for G60
bigger fuel pump
all seals, o rings etc brand new

and a lot more tricks for more power

Gearbox:

mk I gti front spoiler

Chasis:

new brake lines, etc.

Inside:
new leather / alcantara seats
Wiechers rollbar
G40 gauges + pressure, temp, amp VDO gauges
Schroth seat belts ( to mount)


So, time for some pics:

On the start car was green


than we do some work for more place for new engine:






New heart:





And more cuts:




fat G60 don`t want fit easy:
lots of cutting in front...








And after maintenance, more strut bars between stringers and final painting :


MB intercooler, a bit angular, but does the job:



Brakes:


from this perspective, most often you will see polo


And after first test drive:




That was on 1 stage, boost around 1,2bar, std ecu.

At this time is going stage 2, with ported head, custom intake, external oil cooler, smaller G wheel, new camshaft, new Sachs race clutch, another engine block ( better condition), new piston rings, so polo do some kilometers without boost. In next month will be new ecu, boost around 1,5 bar, and estimated power 200+ hp.

So here we go again with new stuff:


Old parts:


More power- toth belt drive:


Sachs race clutch- to 300Nm:


Bigger oil cooler with mocal thermostat:


And it looks like this, here still without intake manifold:


Front:


And this is actual photo of little killer:


All work is performed independently.

More info with time, car is still in progress.

Brilliant little Polo! Is the G60 charger holding up? I heard they are a weak point on the G40 engine because the little 1,3 revs faster?

Yes, it`s G60 charger, should be good, we have actually smaller G charger wheel so wil be revs much faster than original but still should be safe. Car doesn`t do thousand of kilometers, it`s only for weekend fun. Charger is after maitenance and modifications, so it`s life is much much shorter, but we`ve got another charger in mint condition, so we will see how it will be run, if something goes bad, we take another.
