thread Posted August 25, 2006 Report Share Posted August 25, 2006 Well, some of you may remember that I installed a Z1 into a 2006 VW GLI: [url=http://avic411.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1298]http://avic411.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1298[/url] I sold the car and put the stock radio back in and bought a 2004 R32 in great shape. Of course the Z1 was the first thing I changed in the car. Install was a little different as fat as the speed pulse wire goes. It's a different color but, still behind the insturment cluster. Other than that, everything hooked up the same way. Here's a pic of the final install: [img]http://web.mac.com/cvervais/iWeb/Site/My%20new%20.%3AR32_files/IMG_2668.jpg[/img] And here's the car it's installed in: [img]http://web.mac.com/cvervais/iWeb/Site/My%20new%20.%3AR32_files/IMG_2673.jpg[/img] Quote Link to post Share on other sites
sportsfan21 Posted August 25, 2006 Report Share Posted August 25, 2006 Nice installation- looks about as stock as you can get. Although I gotta say I liked the old car better, this car looks sick too. :lol: Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ducatiboy Posted August 25, 2006 Report Share Posted August 25, 2006 Can that car even get out of it's own way? You couldn't find anything with a little get up and go? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

thread Posted August 25, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2006 It'll be plenty quick after I get [url=http://www.streetwerke.com/R32turbo.html][b]this[/b][/url] installed on it. Going to do the GT480 system with a boost controller so I can wind it down for normal driving. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ducatiboy Posted August 25, 2006 Report Share Posted August 25, 2006 [quote name="raddd"]omg ducati are u serious!!! [/quote] No, I know how fast that is... that's why he needs that GT480, to keep him from yawning when he is driving it. I like to bust people with the fast cars. My Ninja ZX12 has 179hp at the wheel (the Duc 996 is only 125ish)... that car with that GT480 would even give that a run for it's money, and not much will on the road.

thread Posted August 25, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 25, 2006 And it's got boatloads of traction. I like the twisties more than 1/4 miles. But, as much power as I can put into the R a bike would still beat it on a road corse easy. In fact nothing short of a Ariel Atom can give a bike a really good run for the money on a road track.
