Vortech 2v from ND

[Shouter351]

What’s up guys. After selling my car almost 2 years ago, I had the chance to buy it back recently and jumped at the chance. It’s an 03 DSG with a Vortech v2, FMIC, supporting fuel mods, and other bolt-ons. It’s on a very conservative tune at 382rwhp on a dynojet. Come spring, I’m thinking another trip to the dyno is in order. Anyway, here are a few pictures of the car.

I tried my hand at restoring the horrible fogged over headlights, and they turned out great!

Sweet! I had a Vortech V1 S 03 DSG GT for 11 years as a daily driver and then bought an 04 Mach 1 DSG and put the Vortech from the GT onto the Mach. You can get a little more out of it. Mine made 411/403 on 12psi and 16* of timing.

Sweet. I’m also thinking about leaving it where it is while I build a bottom end, do some suspension and chassis stuff, and do a 31 spline upgrade. The car NEEDS rear control arms, subframe connectors, and suspension more suited to straight line.

Good looking car. I expect 2Vs to start gaining in popularity very soon.

What are the reasons you’re thinking 2v’s will become so popular?

Price and simplicity.
