Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

    Just thought id introduce everyone to my new toy. I bought it cheap, bone stock, with a stripped timing belt and alot of bent valves. I parted out my old mk4 gti and put the engine/turbo setup into the TT. Ive had the car on the road for about 2 months now and besides a few worn bushes and ripped cv boots, it's been a rock solid car

      Been a while since I’ve updated this thread. Car is still going, blew the turbo at the track and have since installed a mambatek gtx2871r with a 40mm wastegate welded to the exhaust housing. Also running flex fuel setup and my fx400 has just started slipping. Pics for clicks 🤪🤪

          Haha cheers bro, yeah these engines are become very familiar to me haha. The more I learn about them, the more I love them. I have some big plans for this car, eventually it’ll have an extra cylinder and a way bigger turbo
