turbo vr6
 

does any one have a turbo vr6? ive seen a few kits like the eip kit for the 24v vr6 it looks nuts

RE: turbo vr6
 

ha, the vr6 needs a turbo. To slow otherwise.

May be a useless addon for most. Guy's will run it at under 9 psi.
Why bother?

RE: turbo vr6
 

ive seen some quick VR6s at the track running turbo kits, but i dont know who made the kit

RE: turbo vr6
 

It's not hard to build a turbo kit really, for
any car. Just need the time and cash to do it.

But yea VR6 needs it to be worthy

RE: turbo vr6
 

Vr6 VWs shouldnt be down talked they have great HP n speed ..the car is great but then agian 1.8T is just as well cuz u can swtich out the turbos wit a new bolt on.that the only reason i got it hahaha...

RE: turbo vr6
 

the biggest concern wouldny be fitment, but it would be an issue of how much boost the stock NA internals will handle...

RE: turbo vr6
 

Yeah well im not a big TURBO Expert but all i know is if u put a T3 kit wit a front mount intercooler that car would DESTROY/EAT the competition at least most of them.i really like this site this is the 1st site i haved got punked for being a 16 year old.:):D

RE: turbo vr6
 

but the problem is that if you run too much boost without changing the internals, it will tear up the motor very quickly.

RE: turbo vr6
 

The new motors that are built today are very strong. Most internals
that are done are to add to the horsepower, not safety it up.
Eventually though, if you put enough coal to it, you'll bend a rod,
push it through the block or destroy your pistons. In a VR6,
a T3/T4 hybrid...running 10psi is plenty (intercooled) as a daily driver.
Anything more is useless on the street.

I work for a company that deals strictly in turbo's and builds,
designs and installs custom turbo kits. I've seen a lot of things
happen with turbo. Usually, if not always, the transmission will
go before you destroy anything in the block.

but most internals are Really pushing at it 10psi of boost...
