How fast do you think this RS3 can be pushed on track once it's done?
George () is upgrading his already 1300hp "vRS3" with a Billet VR6 and a Garrett G47-1850. George’s RS3 previously ran a cast-iron 24V VR6, DQ500 and Garrett G42-1450 (Red turbo in the video and pictures), with plans to push that combo into the mid-eight-second range. Instead, he decided to take the build further with a solid billet VR6 block from and a transmission better suited to the new power target.
The billet setup allows him to step up to a Garrett G47-1850 that's sitting where the headlight once was, and includes a hand-formed Inconel turbine-housing wrap constructed from individual pie-cut sections by George himself. 🏁🚗💨
