KiNK43 Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 Looks good. You should get that 200hp goal with that setup. Nice little bump in compression with cams very nice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
matty1 Posted May 19, 2013 Author Share Posted May 19, 2013 Looks good. You should get that 200hp goal with that setup. Nice little bump in compression with cams very nice!I'm hoping to get a bit more but it all depends on the dyno! I've been reading up and the place where I get my car tuned, eurospec 2000, it's a really hard dyno to impress compared to tdi north! But at the end of the day I'm not looking for a specific number, just want a decent running engine that when you floor it you leave most cars behind! I'm deciding weather or not to strip it out too???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WilkesyMB6 Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 I dont think it looks right when you strip out an M because of the extra doors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marko Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 I've decided to go N/A rather than boost. Got a list of mods that I'm gonna be saving up and putting in to the head! Just bought a 18c4 that's had 4thou skimmed off, sonic cleaned, running ITR springs and retainers. This is gonna be my new head that I'm gonna build up. List of partsSkunk 2 stage 2 cams tuner seriesSkunk 2 alpha series springs and retainersSkunk 2 pro series black cam gearsI may go for some pistons but don't know yet.Gates racing timing beltGonna have to upgrade my intake pipe to atleast 3" and my exhaust manifold to a 4-1 or something!Racing flywheelStage 2 clutchThat's my list, any different ideas are welcome and any help to on info about partsIf I were you I wouldn't have bought the b18c4 head would have gone any b18 head but the c4/c1 due to them having a few unique qualitys that prevent a lot of what are universal between b series head incompatible :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KiNK43 Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 Yeah but they are a better head in a lot of people's opinion. They do have some good qualities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marko Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 But he plans to remove those good qualities by taking the snail (intake provides yhe best of both short and long runners with the use of iab's) out and all of the c4's guts, the iab's have already been disabled so there's no real need to use the c4 head the ports just don't match up with other intakes very well even those made to fit the c4 head.

And the cheapest b18c head I could find was £300, where I got this c4 head that's been sonic cleaned and eveything for £150, BARGAIN!
