Shelbyville,
Michigan
Had a 91 tsi awd 5 speed that was my dd, had some issues launching the car, and breaking axles (3 bolt). car had started to show signs of rust, and i was constantly have issues with the clutch/pedal assembly. altough im pretty sure i had the pedal assembly issues fixed, i decided to pull the engine and build a more drag race deigned car rather than a dd. I happen to have had a 93 tsi AWD Auto (4 bolt) car sitting around that was from texas (rust free). I had bought the car a couple years back, not running, but came with 2 engines and a trans. So, I pulled the engine from my 91 and started building the 93. The 91 had gone 12.06 @ 120mph on 111 race gas with a 2.16 60ft. Also made 377 whp on 93oct fuel. never dynoed on 111 here is the engine combo with pics I manage my fathers performance engine/body shop, and i have done all the work to both the engine and the car myself.
Engine now:
stock 6 bolt short block (rebuilt w/ arp rod bolts and .040 over)
custom crank case evac setup
Cylinderhead;
Ferrea 1mm over int/ext valves
3 angle valve job with custom throat diameter and angle designed by dad and I.
hours of port work
My own spring combo (similar to kiggy's setup)
3g lifters
Comp 101200 camshafts
Also using a Hawver intake manifold, fidenza cam gears and a bit of little odds and ends.
