Some new hardware arrived today in the form of a pair of HGP turbo's and manifolds and an HGP/HPA 3.6 turbo inlet manifold with injectors and fuel rail. Next month will see the new gearbox and transfer case arrive, a DQ500 7 speed dsg.
Thought it a waste of time to try and make the DQ250 from the Passat try to cope with what the engine will be capable of delivering so hence gearbox change as well.
Poor car has no idea whats in store

Exciting

Is the dq500 a factory box or a custom mod?

Factory in RS3, TTRS and a few others. Handles double the torque of the DQ250.
My current train of thought is to swap in full MK5 electronics to make integration easier but that's still a little ways down the track.
Decided best option is to keep stock FSI and run piggy back ecu to run 6 extra injectors and separate fuel supply when on boost.

Thats going to be mad John. Any idea how how much power it will be putting out?

80 Vert · « **Reply #1305 on:** June 24, 2016, 04:13:00 pm »

Aiming for 650-700 although it should be able to do a lot more

Std bottem end ok or shiny new bits in there as well?

Forged rods / pistons

Why not tune OEM ECU?
It's more than up to the task to handle your request.
Look at AP's R36TT mk5 R32. He is running north of 700hp and still on OEM management running 10.4 or 10.6 in full street trim last time I checked.

I will be running oem ecu, MK5 R32 harness with the Passat ECU

Engine strip downs completed, R36 engine with broken block is completely stripped and my donor crispy fire damaged 3.6 engine also stripped.
Going forward I intend to use the forged BWS crank from the R36 along with the head and cams and put that in to the donor 3.6 block.
Have both side by side to compare but so far they both look identical.
One cylinder on the crispy engine has had water in it but scaping the remains away it doesn't look like the bore is damaged, a light hone will reveal if its ok to use.

Ordered head studs and main studs, have IE rods already so that just leaves pistons to sort.
Current thinking is to use the R36 ECU to run FSI as per standard and some sort of piggy back system to control the 6 other injectors in the manifold under boost.

The damaged R36.......Block and pan are toast. Hopefully the crank isn't bent. Spins free but dial gauge will tell the story once I place it in the good block.

Stripping engine #2, crispy the fire damaged motor.
Upon a light hone in the cylinder that has had water sitting it turns out the bores are quite worn.
Not huge mileage on this but perhaps wrong oil used who knows. Block will need boring.
On the plus side check out the port sizes!! No wonder these things make epic power.

Hi John, is this an old project you had parked or have you suffered a recent engine failure? Always interesting to see what you’re up to!

80 Vert · « **Reply #1313 on:** October 19, 2020, 10:26:46 am »

I've had this engine for many years Jon, the R32T I had in this car was sold 5 years ago and had always planned to put the R36 in but just never really got there till now.
The broken engine I harvested out of a R36 Passat I wrecked many years ago and has sat ever since.
I'll build this up with forged internals as I've got twin turbos to go on it.

This car will be something to behold when its done. I'll be watching with interest.

I concur!

The clutch for this project came in today, all I can say is wow!!
I had not heard of this company until I saw them mentioned in a really interesting youtube video and decided to contact them.
Right from the get go their communication and professionalism was outstanding, anyway I placed an order for their twin plate clutch set up and got their input shaft support kit as well.
Unboxing the clutch today it is very very high end, the quality just looks absolutely superb and a shame to hide away in the bell housing.
This particular set is a 2 plate rated at 1200NM torque which should be good on my twin turbo set up.
If anyone is looking for a serious single or double plate clutch contact TTV Racing UK.

Does this mean you're no longer going with the DSG?

80 Vert · « **Reply #1318 on:** November 06, 2020, 06:38:51 am »

Absolutely yes, no more DSG. Don't know what I was thinking considering DSG

Looks very shiny John. Quality.
