Thank you so much for covering your build Brian! It's an inspiration to me because I plan on buying a used 18 at the end of the year, and will use it as a template. Will the Nitto 555 be ok for 1/2 mile events? Can you compare this platform to the Corvette C6 and C8? I want your opinion on launch and half mile potential vs the two platforms. I would imagine that the TTRS is more streetable at high HP levels due to AWD. I'm still looking at used C8 if they can ever tune it. Thank you for your future input! 🤘
The 555r have been great at high speeds. Unfortunately no experience with a corvette but I do know that traction on the street is much better with the TT
I might go with a different piston that's a bit quieter. I believe it has a chance for 8's with full interior. After my 8 second run I found out my front driver tire was way out of alignment
What kinda cost are we looking at for the build excluding wheels. For your power level, 30k? Just a rough estimate please, I know it can differ depending on components.
For what I want to do with the car, no. I'm a big fan of roll racing events and just don't trust those small brakes with a 3000lb+ car. Their car does look sick with the setup though
3 questions 1. How laggy is it running so much power on a small motor? 2. How bad does it under-steer given it has a fwd based awd system but you have the controller for it? 3. Is 50/50 front/rear the max torque split?
The turbo starts seeing boost under 3000 rpm and full boost around 4000 rpm. The car revs to 8000, so with 4000 rpm of full boost it's pretty enjoyable in my opinion. With the controller it's much better, the rear end will rotate under throttle now Yes, it's a true 50/50 at my current power level now with the controller compared to around 70/30 split with stock controller
Hi Brian, i have a 2021 TTRS on a stage 2 setup. Is it ok just to stick uprated rods in to work with stock pistons? I think that’s what you said you have?
Few questions - what is the switch for above the haldex controller, is the indicator “gauge” behind the controller knob something you made yourself, and lastly - when you say you run at setting 6, would that be at the 1 o’clock position? (12 o’clock being middle between full left/right) Thanks for the video Brian 😎
The switch is a manual switch to turn the haldex off. Syvecs has them that you can print off, I got this from someone who did that she had them laminated.
At what builds do you need upgraded clutches? I'm doing 710h 2021 and have been running Stage 1+ E85. Just don't want things to just break when making more power on stage 3.
Nice video! Gotta admit I love those ceramic brakes! Quick question if you don’t mind. Im looking for a new wheel set to replace my current 2018 TTRS O.E.M. The current set is suppose to be 20x9 52ET Im looking to get the OZ ultraleggera hlt. With 20x8.5 32ET. Since the difference in offset is quite significant, Will this fit my TTRS without adding any spacing, will it rub against anything? Thanks a lot
Who installed the engine internals? Im trying to get an idea of what is would cost if i dropped off an assembled longblock and had the eurocode stuff put in.
Hey buddy what size tires do you have 285/35r18 is what I want to run i have the nuespeed rse 102 20x 9 now I'm ordering the nuespeed rse11r 18x9.5 with toyo r888r 285/35/18 I can't get a definitive answer from ostar motorsports they say on their you tube it fits fine . You think it will work?
I have the h and super sport springs groups like 1.1 inches all around just worried about rubbing but I know yours is almost an inch drop so I should be fine ill just order them 😅
I had the first generation tt and it was fun now I have the mk2 vr6 tt manual and it’s a bit better overall. The ttrs is my dream car 😊

Who tuned the car and how much power did it make?
Would you do anything different knowing what you know now?
What will it run current setup full interior?
Sharp car!
I might go with a different piston that's a bit quieter.
I believe it has a chance for 8's with full interior. After my 8 second run I found out my front driver tire was way out of alignment
Sick build bro!
Thanks!
What tune did you use?
Great video bro. Any idea how much she weighs?
What’s the total cost of the whole build would you say with everything you have
30k ish
What kinda cost are we looking at for the build excluding wheels. For your power level, 30k? Just a rough estimate please, I know it can differ depending on components.
That's about right, could be done a little cheaper
How are the KW heigh adjustable springs? Any complaints? How is the ride quality compared to stock?
Would you do a I5 inch conversion with belaks? It looks sick I’ve only seen ostmanmotorsports ttrs and it looks amazing on that wheel setup
For what I want to do with the car, no. I'm a big fan of roll racing events and just don't trust those small brakes with a 3000lb+ car. Their car does look sick with the setup though
Not much left to do :) What's the next project car?
Not sure. Rs6 or r8 both have their cons and benefits
Very nice build
CAI has no performance upgrade. Waste of money

@@briansaxon Cool, I had been wondering and I hadn't been able to find answers so thanks
Nice. one of the best project on daza engine.
How is eurocode pistons and rod combo kit?
How much milage you used the engine build till now?

the car looks beautiful!
Also so nice that you have such big tuners for audi like iroz in the usa.
Greetings from germany
Hey for the tuning are you using Unitronics maps or do tune yourself?
Hey man dope content. Do you mind sharing the type of bc forged wheels you have along with the specs. Much appreciated!!🙂
Paul at Supreme power helped me, I'd email him paul@supremepower.com
How's reliability? And do you daily drive it?
Awesome build 👏👏👏
Thank you!
What can suspension you used my man?
Quick question, I know I sold your car, however, do you still have that spoiler with you.
No sorry it's sold

At what builds do you need upgraded clutches? I'm doing 710h 2021 and have been running Stage 1+ E85. Just don't want things to just break when making more power on stage 3.
Stock clutches can handle 710h built motor no problem. I'd highly recommend a flywheel upgrade while the engine is being built though
Hot build overall, is it for sale??
What are your thoughts about a TTS in comparison to a TTRS?
I have a golf R as a daily driver, I'd say the tts is comparable to that. Imo the TTRS and RS3 are just on another level
Nice video! Gotta admit I love those ceramic brakes!
Quick question if you don’t mind. Im looking for a new wheel set to replace my current 2018 TTRS O.E.M. The current set is suppose to be 20x9 52ET

Thanks a lot
Unfortunately there's so many different wheels it's hard to keep up with what fits and what doesn't
@@briansaxon yeah I know right. I’m not even sure that the one I would like to purchase will fit
Do you have an aftermarket throttlebody inlet?
Yes, but I don't believe there are any gains there.
Who installed the engine internals? Im trying to get an idea of what is would cost if i dropped off an assembled longblock and had the eurocode stuff put in.
Where are you located?
@@briansaxon wa state
What DP and Intercooler you are running?
Downpipe is Iroz as it comes with the 850s kit.
Fmic is STM that utilizes Garrett 1000hp core
@@briansaxon thank you! You are awesome!
Have you thought about a VR6 swap? I heard 6 cylinders are faster
😂😂
Hey buddy what size tires do you have 285/35r18 is what I want to run i have the nuespeed rse 102 20x 9 now

Thank you so much ;)
