  • Hey Everyone,
    The past couple weeks we have been working our hardest to build a big turbo kit for the mk1 TT. This week is a huge step. We have a simple goal... Finish installing all parts of the kit, and get the car running again. I couldn’t be more excited.
    Thank you for watching, consider liking and subscribing for more.

    I love how you are the only youtuber showing the part of modifying cars that everyone else ignores; the anxiety and uncertainty of doing such things. It's not a walk in the park like some other youtubers make it out to be. Great video as always

    I was looking into a TT about a year or two ago and found your channel. I was never able to pull the trigger on one but I still love watching every episode and you’ve helped me with a ton on my own projects. Keep up the great work!

    The joy on your face says it all. It’s been such a wild ride from start to ‘finish’ and it’s amazing to hear that TT revving again! Would love to see a ‘drive with me’ style video where we get to hear to raw sounds of the engine against the road!

    Congratulations on your new turbo build. Was definitely a good journey to see you build it. Definitely make sure you're at a safe tune to handle that turbo. I know you'll probably do big rods in the future to make more power. Until then keep it safe.

    now, step by step, earning some money, starting order some of the parts for enginge, to fix it. if everything will be ok, then for next summer i will start with suspension.
    now its starts cold outside, but somehow need to change belt, chain, oils, repair steerpower. almost 300k/km
    Thx for some ideas and for content.

    I just wanna make this abundantly clear as i have PTSD from it haha, MAKE ABSOLUTELY SURE to wear thick gloves if its the fiberglass type heat wrap.....ouch for many days. And also amazing effort dude, im think8ing about turbo on my 1.8t b5 avant i cannot imagine how tight transversely mounted engines are

    • @HunterDirection
      @HunterDirection  7 місяців тому

      Yeah in hindsight gloves wouldn't have been a terrible idea. Thankfully it really wasn't too itchy though. Yeah turboing the transverse definitely provides some additional challenge to the longitudinal 1.8s haha.

    Hi Hunter Im a young owner of a 3.2 TT and im actually not sure what i can do to get more Horsepower out of it I bought it a couple years ago after my first car got side swiped because it was such a sweet deal then i took it to get an oil change and they didnt change the oil which cost me a motor so after alot of time sitting i just recently got it running reliably again and was seeking upgrade options but everything i find is just the 1.8 so i was hoping to find some answers here on what direction i can go with my 3.2

    • @HunterDirection
      @HunterDirection  8 місяців тому

      The wastegate is routed back to the downpipe so it wont be as loud as an open dump. But we also had some pretty big boost leaks stopping us from making enough for it to dump haha. 😅

    • @seispaul
      @seispaul 8 місяців тому

      @HunterDirection interesting. Is there an advantage to dumping the extra boost pressure that way? TeeterTot has an open dump, so it's really apparent when there's too much boost at times.

    You should have 20 or more inhg of vacuum. Anything else and your LTFT are suffering and they(tuner) have to compensate. If I was to guess what’s leaking vacuum it’s probably your crank case ventilation system you got going. Something isn’t right

      @Itsmeart1988 8 місяців тому

      @@HunterDirection I still think your vacuum is suffering because you aren’t running a PRV and because of that allowing the PCV valve to be sucking vacuum at all times (except on boost). Try and run the PRV after the catch can and see what it does to your vacuum.
