Ran my Polo m-tdi up the drag strip :) VIDEO
« on: July 25, 2013, 08:40:35 am »
Finally got to run my polo m-tdi 1z conversion on the drag strip last weekend :)
Track: Santa pod raceway UK
ambient air temp: 30•c
Tyres: Yokohama a032r cut slicks
Quickest 1/4 mile was 15.4 secs @92.10 mph :)
Wound the WG on my k24 shut to 25psi and wound the pump up to a stupid amount of fuel!

It's got some .216 t4 nozzles on original 1z injectors, smokes quite a lot when driving around town due to the lag from the k24 :( but fine for the drag strip! Gets people talking! Haha
All the power seems 2500rpm+ which is fine for motorway driving but useless on the drive to work etc. but when it pulls it pulls very well, wheel spin in second and top of third is interesting to tame in the dry!
It's almost impossible to accelerate hard in the wet!!
