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.

Just came in. Heavy little sucker. Package weighed in a 10.6kgs.
Will post some feedback after I have Derek fit it.
Probably won't have much to say till the next track day in April.

Nice one John, you bit the bullet!Comment

Noice!
Is there any grade written on the bolts that come with it? I have heard a few stories of Peloquins sheering bolts now so its something to be cautious of.

Credit to you for the lead Mart. Forgot to mention that. I got it from Peter Lindvall (thescirocco.com) who you helped point me in the direction off.
He was great to deal with. Lots of good communication along the way. Top bloke.Comment

The supplied info states that they're the new ARP 2000 bolts. The bolts themselves have ARP PRO written on them. All of the required torque specs are listed.Originally posted by Tim View Post
This one took a little longer as they were producing it late last year.
Also got offered a race spec with a 380NM breakaway over the regular 100NM which I declined. I think the 100NM breakaway would be more effective with my turbo/tune.Last edited by johnc; 25-01-2010, 04:06 PM.Comment

Where did you get it from John, and what made you go for that over a Quaife?Comment

Tinto pointed me in the direction of Peter Lindvall @ thescirocco.com.Originally posted by John Deere View Post
Went for it over the Quaife just based on various commentary across the range of forums and just general googling. There was outright and absolute reason why I went with Peloquin. At least not to my current memory. I'd been reading various stuff about them over the past year of so and seemed to come to the conclusion that I was going with a Peloquin.
Contact Peter: peter@thescirocco.com if you'd like to order one.Comment

I would love to hear some feed back on the mod after it is installed.Comment

I'll have some proper feedback after a track day. Lap times might help, but sadly I'm not that consistent a driver just yet. Couldn't better 1.14.5 @ Wakefield (which isn't great for my spec, but okay for my first time). Will see what I can do next time round.Comment

I'll never be a great track driver, but its a helluva lot of fun...and I imagine even more with an LSD.
(I couldn't break 2:07's around Eastern Creek and there was a stock GTI running 2:05's.)Comment

if the discipline to perform 'slow in / fast out' and feeding on the power didn't feel so boring.... we'd all be Pro!
MASH correct, MASH understeer, MASH sliiide (thats the theme of my first few laps at any track day)Comment
