Detailed repair process to this damaged R32 crank. It's a supercharged setup that had a 1 piece double pulley; 1 track to drive the serpentine and 1 to drive the charger. There was no way to hold back while tightening on the aftermarket pulley and it was undampened. Eventually the bolt backed out and the pulley fell off causing the damage.
Now the crank is repaired, a Fluidampr pulley is installed, and a new bolt-on charger drive pulley will be supplied by iABED Industries .

Occasionally we do not car-related things. Custom record cabinet for our friends and . Dakota supplied the dimensions and we executed the rest. Drawn in CAD, cut from 0.188" ALU, and given a brushed finish. All the panels clip together and then are locked using a ground pin tool in the air hammer.

Intake manifold we built for another shaved bay MK1 TDi project we have going on. We started with the lower portion of an OE manifold and built up from there. The plenum transitions from the original roughly 1.25" width to 2.5" ending with a 2.5" @411.works clamp.

This week we're highlighting a fitting that's not commonly needed but when that occasion arises it's nice to know this option exists. When building a custom radiator for your MK4/5/6/7 you may want to retain the OE quick disconnect fittings and these weld-ons allow you to do so. Machined from 6061 with a long enough extension to get a good weld seam but short enough to not push your hoses out.
Though not listed, we also can machine these weld-ons in the smaller size to match the heater core connections

Some coolant pieces for a 16v head on a 1.8t block. Converted the oil cooler to 8AN. Built an 8AN coolant fl**ge with M12x1.5 sensor port and a 16AN thermostat housing. Both were built using fl**ges we offer on our site 😉. Lastly, we formed some 0.5" Aluminum tubing to plumb the coolant bypass.
