After almost two years or tuning, testing, filming my AUDI TT 8J PROJECT is finished. Movie called “CARS – MEANING OF LIFE” will be online at 22.APRIL. So if you want to see how we build racing/daily AUDI TT please look at my short trailer, SUBSCRIBE to my YouTube channel and watch the movie.

Amazing work!!

Thank you mate.

Hahahahaha still have same opinion that rear wing is ugly and shouldn't be there

Thank you all

First off all sorry I didn’t update this topic so long. The car is assembled, two month before, and we had one month before first test on racing track. Car have 370HP, we replace Z-Performance alloys with Bola together with Toyo R888R R19 tires.

Custom made Roll bar is mounted.

I will share some track photos. We had around 5-6 rows on the NAVAK racing track (3.5 Km) where we take third place, among 50+ cars that day (we had better time than some R8, 911, WRX etc).

To cool down engine more, we upgrade fueling with new Torqbyte CMS-LT WMI system (one of the best WMI systems, to be precise from my perspective for shore the best WMI system on the market).

Also we upgrade LPFP system with TTRS LPFP, Torqbyte PM3 power controller, plus Torqbyte J538 module, to get most precise fueling, to exclude pump and module overheating and cuts (which is the common problem on the track).

So after first test on the track, and just 5 rows, our clutch was gone :). Second problem was engine overheating and some oil leaking. Oil leaking was solved with iAbed sport rear main seal.

Second step was to replace original DQ250 DSG clutch pack with the performance clutch pack.

Still handing was one of the problems to, so we replace default differential with Quaife LSD.

Then oil cooling was our next priority. Regarding oil temp of the engine and DSG gearbox can be too high, which is normal for the track usage, so we mount iAbed external engine and DSG oil cooling.

Also we replaced Ferodo DS300 braking pads, racing brake fluid, Racing Motul 300V oil, interior rebuild etc.

Yes, it was on dino, we are stuck at 325HP without pushing to much, but new files for DSG and ECU including Water methanol from Torqybte will be finished in next two or three weeks.
If you look closely, we have three weld seam points, one is totally fabricated, and we just decide to no take any action on the rest two. But hah I agree with you on that after some visual inspection, so I will for shore re fabricated it again.
No rear spoiler, this decision was made before we decide to order oem TT RS body kit, regarding also I didn't like it on original TT RS. From my designer point of view it just should be there, it looks wrong. This is just my opinion.
Lowering more will be more difficult for track day,and the whole built was for track day. For some show of, yes totally agree, but suspension is set tor track/soft racing

Hi there,

It's really nice watching the progress on your project.
Was the car on a Dyno-run already after all the changes were made?

What I don't like from the look like, is the weldseam on the airpipe from the filter,
looks not so nice done. But well... It's cosmetics, more important is the functioning.

Are you going for the RS rear Spoiler as well? As you did almost all the RS look, it looks like that there's something missing now.

I don't know about your road conditons, but it would definitely look more nice if you would lower it a bit more.

Yes, it was on dino, we are stuck at 330HP, but new files including Water methanol will be finished in next two or three weeks.

Alex thinks your car is to high. :hmw
Alex das sollte die normale höhe sein vllt weng tiefer.

hahahaha I tough this was translation

Thank you even I do not understand last word

Finlay I will share some photos of the car, before new Methanol kit arrive I hope you will like it

Thank you mate. I hope next week I will have more updates.

Thank you mate, I appreciate your support.

Unfortunately, the project had to suffer due to uncoordinated terms and obstacles that we encountered, i.e. the high-pressure mechanical pump was the major problem, although it has already been replaced by a new one, which was reflected in the loss of power at high RPM.

We replaced the HPFP housing with the new Hitachi model (for the second time), and we also changed the internal HPFP AutoTech kit.







After that, we decided to change the pump in the tank, so we replace it with a pump from the Audi R8 model. Again we encountered a minor problem, i.e. original TT 2.0 TFSI pump had 16A supply and new one LPFP from the Audi R8 required a 40A source. The problem was solved when we received Torqbyte PM3 module. For now everything works fine, we are waiting for a new map, so we'll see after new remap where our borders are.

What we did on the engine, I'll mention again:

New K04 Turbo from the Audi TTS
Forge blow off
Forge cold intake
Forge catch can
S3 injectors
AutoTech HPFP
New Hitachi HPFP
New R8 LPFP LPFP
Torqbyte PM3 module for LPFP
A new fuel high-pressure sensor
A new fuel low-pressure sensor
New 6 bar fuel filter
New RS4 PRV
Wagnertuning TTRS inter cooler
All the pipes around the intercooler
Down pipe
The entire fi76mm exhaust system

In the meantime we also replace old seats with new Recaro CS seats, also we replaced whole interior (carpets, sky, panels, etc.).

We need to move on. After internal discussion, we decide change old 310mm front discs with new 345mm discs.

... and we mount custom exhaust that we previously made.

We need to move on. Still working on the car performance, but "small gift" arrived so I am sharing some pictures of it

Please check Recaro CS beauties.

P.S

Is there any1 who do not like them :D?

Exhaust is fixed, now we need to make blends and polish all parts

We will not use cat at all K-Sport is rely serious racing manufacturer of suspension, brake and brake discs, wheels etc. Price was around 1000euro.

Ok, we need to move on. We replace shocks with new one from K-Sport, Brembo brakes are mounted, and we made custom exhaust that will be mounted next week. So, I am sharing some pictures from today customization.
