3.6 Touareg. More power wanted

[Simond001]

Simple really. I have the Petrol 3.6 and want more power. I've looked at the 5.0 V10 which is the obvious choice.

What i'd like to do is turbo charge or twin turbo my existing car.

Anyone know of a company that do this. Budget is probably about £8k or so.

Why don't you sell yours and buy one of the early V8's - they can be had for about 10k now. I've put a Milltek exhaust on mine and it's hilarious.

[Simond001]

is that he v8 petrol or diesel?

Also, mine only has 10,000 miles on it, so I cant really justify binning it for an older higher mileage car.

V8 petrol (Audi's 4.2). Crying shame it's not available any more.

Perhaps look into Supercharging, generally works very well on VW engines and lots of companies out there who offer it, Stealth Racing for example who supercharged my old VR6 (180bhp -> 292 bhp)

Good call 7ommy. Much appreciated.

Storm are calling back Monday with what they can offer using forced induction. JBS are calling tomorrow.

Spoke to an engineer at JBS (which is always the best start) and he was confident that a single turbo option would easily give 450bhp, and more if i wanted it.

That 500bhp figure seems the right direction for me!

(he did offer up to 700bhp if i want to be silly)
