Congrats on that build man it's very impressive! shame about the con rod going though but it's a valuable lesson for all us 2 drivers on what it's going to take to start pushing out more ponies than the regular intake and exhaust set up
Time for update.
Just after i finished the breaking in of the motor I had an accident that setted me back for 4 months, but as a phrase says, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger.
First of all, subaru wrx STi 550cc injectors.
Had to modify the fuel rail
Then i found stronger custom made gears and an "lsd like" differantial for a good price
Here are some videos when i first got the car back to the road at 0.9-1 bar and 215-220whp.
Polo = 250+whp
Rover with a modified honda integra type-r motor = 200whp
And an acceleration video at 1.2bar and 240+whp but the clutch can't handle the torque and is slipping a bit from 3rd to 4th
Looks serious! What intercooler did you switch to? Now that you've completed the rebuild, do you feel like the new internals are going to hold up to your boost levels? Does the motor feel very different than before?
Awesome project. I love seeing what you do with this car.
