i was amazed at the differance the front splitter made to high speed stabilty on my race car. it will be having a new one for next year when it comes back out.
shame you missed out the 11's but you know there in the car.

Looks to be smooth at 137. I might just have to cut one out for my car.

Great vids Wally!
The car looks very stable at speed,nice set up! With that gear/tire/HP combo you can crack the 250Km/h.Armin ran 257 Km/h (digital speedo aswell) with my 90kg ass sitting along side.Rpm was approx. 6200 with a 225/50/15 tire 3.44 r+p and 0.82 4th. boost was about 1.2 bar.Wastegate was set at 1.3 bar. |

Clutch is clearly at its power limit... :

257 km/h is sort of crazy in a beetle on the highway/autobahn. I recalculated and that is 251 km/h, which is close enough. Crazy...how does his stay stable for that? He runs less aero then I do, but his car is also less wide, so maybe that helps some to gain the speed. Still, over 250 km/h is wow! Last edited by Wally; June 27th 2010 at 14:51. |

Wow !
Is that a 6 puc Kennedy unit ? Have you looked at a dual disc setup ? I believe there is an advantage to 4 friction surfaces vs two for your power level. I'm looking in to it as well. Sandeep |

Yep, that is, or better - was- a Kennedy 6-puck semi-metallic unit and a Sachs Race-engineering HD 228mm clutch (probably stage 2-ish).
They couldn't make me a organic twin-disk set-up (too thick), but instead I had to get the semi-metallic twin disk set-up with a G50 center. Hope it will still be driveble. Short of a stage 3, there are no options, so I went for that one. I ordered it with a stage 1 pp. We'll see if we can get it round my shortenend G50 spline... |

wally,
One friend use this clutch (made usa) in one drag beetle with 900+ HP. He said it was very good. What do you think about this? Not found exactly the same on the internet. But the link below have one sample. http://www.horsepowerfreaks.com/part...o_Stage_5/7263 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IgLKqW74agE |

That is a black magic clutch disc. A lot of higher HP vw guys use that disc with a stage 1 plate.

I love this disc!!! Used to drag with, and can be freshened up by media blasting after a few runs. Almost like new. A little harsh on take off, but locks right up. Less harsh I found if hydralic clutch is used. also check out the Gene Berg dual friction disc.

What is better than one black magic disk?
Two of them... Apperently kennedy use these to make their double disk set-up. This is what came in yesterday: |

That should work Looking at your pics makes me realize once again what drag racing does to components...

Where do you take your MAP from Wally, have you drilled and tapped the manifolds?
