Evaded's Polo 9N3

[Evaded Motorsport]

This mornings effort.




Huge discovery is that it looks like the late model PD100s use the same inlet manifold as the PD150. go figure. PD150 on left PD100 on the right. My inlet manifold was pretty clean as well atleast compared to a few others.


Little split in the radiator hose thanks to VW's crappy design, the radiator hoses for the EGR rub.

Turbo Manifold.

Nice work, good to see you in there and messing with the lil beast!

[GoLfMan]

oh nice! I might have to measure mine up, although mine is an early TDI.... Keep up the good work!

[Evaded Motorsport]

Yeah my understanding was that all the PD100's had a dual port manifold with the butterflies but clearly not all of them.

[Evaded Motorsport]

Okay the waiting game for parts has started (will post photos a little later on).

Today's (well yesterday now) progress saw the turbo unbolted, short shifter fitted, engine bay detailed, front of the car detailed.

Went to do the 312mm Brake Upgrade, figuring I would need the hubs off a Polo GTI or similar. Confirmed that I do, so basically if anyone has a set of Polo GTI Hubs or quite possibly Mk4 288mm Disc Hubs I will be happy to take them

[Evaded Motorsport]

Got it running,

Needs the clutch, injectors and tune done

Currently engine wise it has

PD160 intake
VNT1749VB Turbo
Cat and Muff Delete
PD150 inlet manifold and Darkside Developments EGR Delete.

Need a FMIC as well

i swear vw does this just to piss us off.....

keep up the pioneering!!! (for us aussies, at least )

[GoLfMan]

yeh man, i went to fit some GTI brakes, found out I needed the front hubs. Big FML moment

So I settled for new rotors and greenstuff all around instead!\

Now hurry up and hit Gav up for a tune!

yeah, i know how you feel.....

i bought noone's gti brakes a year and a bit ago, back when everyone who was doing 312mm upgrades was preaching "these would be a great upgrade for non-gti owners, straight swap" (my fault for not double triple confirming, though)... they've been sitting in storage opposite lp bodyworks the whole time, gathering dust

maybe i should turn em into really fcking heavy paperweights or something...

Hahahaha, it is such a pain.

It is a bit of a joke some of the stuff they do but on the plus side the car is almost done. I may wait and save and fit the ECS 2 piece disc along with the Porsche Boxster calipers instead.

Still waiting to hear back from Gav, I messaged him ages ago but didn't reply I know he was busy though When I get some time I will message him again.

[Greg Roles]

PM him mate, he is up in Brissie now with a lot of time on his hands.....until his family follows soon!

[h100vw]

Sorry mate if I have missed a PM. I am here just hit me up. When do you want it looking at, tomorrow night? Off interstate next tuesday til the end of the month.

Still need to get injectors fitted and really have no money atm, Work just died on me so as soon as something changes I will let you know so no big rush.

Thus why I wasn't worried about it :p

[Evaded Motorsport]

Alright small update.

Ordered the injector fitting kit so hopefully have that all sorted out early next month. So if anyone wants a TT Setup I have one going at a good price

Selling off my Audi Brakes as I will go a Porsche Boxster with 2 Piece disc setup.

Also got some 17x8 Oz's

Have a whiteline sway bar on the way as well, Need to get that fitted up and make up the Camber plates before the start of the race season. So much to do

The new wheels look ace.

Hopefully we can get you out to lakeside for some happy laps!
Can't let the Polo GTI's have all the fun.
