This is my buddy Marcs gti head with his new turbo set up, im sure some people have seen the car, orange, full cage, fuel cell, fully built motor, machined head by Jess Miller, Tech III EMS, slicks, a good $35,000 invested, we just got the turbo from Inovative, car should be back on the roads in about a month...enjoy....

StreetEG · 02-28-2006, 10:29 PM

looks good!

wgknestrick · 02-28-2006, 10:54 PM

I hope that isn't $35K in mods.

compuvision02 · 02-28-2006, 10:56 PM

The car looks so good, I only saw it once. Beastly little thing.

evo8power · 02-28-2006, 11:01 PM

35k in modds

kids got the money, too much to spend on a Gti, but he loves the car, quick guestimate since ive been helping somewhat aloing the way....

turbo set up= $6,500
motor= $7,800
cage=$1,100
EMS=$2, 400
all other power modds=$7,000
labor/tuning= god who knows, well over $7,000

alwaysinboost · 02-28-2006, 11:05 PM

Thats a very realistic goal, espically with a 24v motor.

The biggest problem your friend is going to have is getting all those pissed off horses to the ground.

A must on that list needs to be a built tranny, the stock ones tend to go around 300-350wtq.

Blackv6Stang · 02-28-2006, 11:05 PM

that turbo is massive.

its about to collapse the cardboard box! very nice though! wish i had that kinda money

I guess money = HP.

How fast do you wanna go?

That is a ton of money for 500whp, and I will even guess that won't be had on pump gas alone, maybe close though. Sure doesn't look like he skimps anywhere and has good (expensive) tastes. Anything worth doing, is worth doing right.

Once I get my pistons this month, I will try to break 450awhp on 93oct+meth. I probably have $15K in mods, but all the labor is mine.

evo8power · 02-28-2006, 11:36 PM

i forgot, built tranny, axles, suspension, clutch......lol, add that to the list, although, i did talk to him about 20 min ago and he said he will make over 600, but thats just talk still, we will find out soon...and remeber what do these things make stock 1**whp??

1988 Olds · 03-01-2006, 12:14 AM

Thats alot of money for 500hp. Shoulda built a supercharged 350 chevy for under 10K. I wish him luck with his project.

Little G · 03-01-2006, 12:24 AM

Yeah the car is badass...ive seen it in his garage...

hystericfox · 03-01-2006, 01:27 AM

Just as long as it runs better than the turbo VR6 in my garage right now. But its a show car, it isn't supposed to go fast.

05Accent · 03-01-2006, 01:30 AM

that thing is goin to be sick!

evo8power · 03-01-2006, 08:08 AM

fast???? trying to run low 10's. has a nice set of E/T streets for the front, all out drag car, with some show to it as well ;-)

BradC · 03-01-2006, 08:37 AM

Nice Tubi!

S4toSTI · 03-01-2006, 10:19 AM

Very nice but he should have taken his 30k here. http://www.schimmelperformance.com/

xEJ20x · 03-01-2006, 10:39 AM

What generation of GTi?

underpressure02 · 03-01-2006, 11:17 AM

Is he running the full-race turbo setup? It looks like one of their mani's

S4toSTI · 03-01-2006, 11:27 AM
