Porsche PDK Swapped, Compound TurboDiesel VW Beetle Pikes Peak Hillclimb Special
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
When you think “Pikes Peak Special”, you’re probably thinking of Audis, Evos, Porsches, open wheel cars… all clad with giant aero and more carbon fiber than all of Nopi nationals combined. What you probably don’t think about is a diesel 70s Volkswagen Beetle. But when it’s PDK swapped, and compound turbo’d to the tune of 500 ft-lbs of torque, it all starts to make sense that a few of Europe’s celebrated rallyists thought it would be a good idea to take this thing up the world’s highest hillclimb race.

@@xprettylightsx with enough money any engine can be built to crazy specs. The thing about PD engines is that theyre crazy reliable (250.000 km is pretty much the break in period with just basic maintenance) and can withstand brutal ammounts of abuse. Building the internals has them retain these characteristics while also delivering tire shredding ammounts of torqe. Most people dont go for more than 450hp because at that point the tourqe just gets ridiculous and you have to upgrade your drivetrain to handle it.

The Porsche PDK box is a modern day marvel. Recent advances in modern transmissions is advancing modern engines and performance unbelievable. Only disappointment is the weight increases for safety. Once people are able to get these new transmissions swapped into an older light chassis the drivability and performance will make huge strides forward. Imagine when the swaps for a modified LT4 from a 6th gen Camaro ZL1 with it's 10 speed auto in a 4th gen Camaro or a modified Coyote and 10 speed in a Fox body. Or a 10 speed behind something like the BBC in the Donk project or in other builds. It will advance the ability of these vehicles being able to be driven on the streets and their ability to run faster times at the track.
I really like those simple mechanics on that car. Actually I love it
Wow! I actually met this man at Spa Francorchamps last year around june, super nice dude! Never thought i'd see this car again here!

Running a GT2052 is an interesting choice for the high-pressure turbo. I won't pretend to know compound setups very well, but that's considered a reasonably "big" turbo in the 1.9TDI world. I always thought you wanted something small for the high-pressure side. Either way, awesome build. Love how scratch-built it is, and that it managed to set a record!

use a boost bleed off with a check valve to pressurise the water spray tank? constant pressure and use more capacity of the tank.
