Okay, where do I start? Firstly, I dont need to sell the car, but Ive got my eyes on something else, and I cant go forward with that until I free up some space. Ive been through it all with this car. Blood, sweat, tears, anger, frustration, excitement, and a few bank accounts. Been building the car since I purchased it new, nearly 4 years ago. I can finally say the car is as perfect as it can get, and running stronger than ever. The car has never been in any accidents. The only damage it ever had was a front bumper that got damaged from road debris. I have since purchased a new OEM bumper. The car has now gone through a full metal widebody build with matching front and rear bumpers. Both front and rears have been widened approximately an extra 2.5. All work has been done by Decaudellas in Melbourne, FL. . The body on the car is a 9.5/10.Currently the only cosmetic flaw is a small chip on left side of rear bumper. I can get a picture for those serious. Those that are familiar with Clay and his shop (Decaudellas), know that his work is nothing short of perfect, show quality. Around the same time, I had a custom 4 point roll cage built for the car and powder coated white to match the exterior. It is easily removable if desired. Along with cage, 4 point harnesses also went in. The only people that have ever touched this car are either myself, or almost always USP Motorsports in Coral Springs,FL - not even local VW dealers. Theyve done all of the major work on the car, from custom parts, to suspension, full engine and transmission build, etc, etc, etc. I have receipts and invoices of every single thing thats gone into the car or thats been done to it since the day I purchased it. Over $60k worth of labor and parts (I have ALL receipts). I gladly welcome PPI to those that are serious. For those that know the car, know it. Theres a 100+ page build thread on Vortex about the car, since the day I got it, and everything its been through. From the time it was bagged, to when I decided to go APR stage 3+, to an even bigger turbo upgrade with custom tuning, to the 10 second quarter mile runs, built head, etc etc.. I could go on and on about this car really, theres just way way way too much to list and talk about. If youre serious about the car, feel free to mesage me, and we can further discuss it. Ill also give you my phone number for direct contact if serious. And NO, I will not part out any of the car. On to specs: 2012 GLI6 Speed Manual23,xxx miles (car gets driven about 1-2 times every two or three weeks.)Single Owner car. I bought it new, and have had it ever since. Engine: Its bulletproof. The built head was finally put on and tested at about 18k miles. When the motor was apart at that same time, everything was checked, including pistons, rods, cylinder walls, compression, everything. The motor is perfect, healthy. Not a single hint of any problems, no leaks, nothing. The car currently has two custom APR tunes. One for 93 octane, which makes anywhere from 420-450 ish whp depending on boost settings, and a race gas tune which makes 520-580 whp depending on boost settings. There is a Greddy Profec Spec II boost controller to keep track of all that. Everything of which I will go over with whoever is serious about the car. Also have dyno sheets of everything, videos, etc. There was a new Precision 5858 turbo put in around 16k miles, so everything is like new. -Custom APR tune for 93 and race gas-IE Rods- Calico ceramic coated rod bearings-ARP head studs-balanced internals-Built head with full revised Ferrea TSi valvetrain kit-BSH catch can-BSH motor mounts, transmission mount, dog bone mount-APR intercooler-APR injectors-HEP custom aluminum intake manifold-USP throttle body pipe-APR Carbonio intake-APR stage3+ kit (modified)-USP low pressure fuel system-USP modified HPFP / fuel system-Upgraded coil packs-Modified APR exhaust manifold-Tial 5858 turbo-Forge diverter valve-Custom USP downpipe and full 3 exhaust, catless, muffler only-custom external wastegate dump-2 step/launch control (never used it, but easily adjusted to be used)-Braille lightweight lithium-ion battery with trickle charger (4 pounds) I know there is more to the list, and Im probably forgetting it.

If anyone is serious, feel free to contact me and we can go over everything, including invoices, work done, or whatever questions you have

Recharge Wrap-up: Mercedes gets F1 efficiency, EV charging in Vermont, VW e-Golf to use Bosch

Mon, Jul 14 2014

Efficiency equals performance, especially in the case of Formula 1 racing. The Mercedes AMC Petronas team points to several key efficiency technologies it uses to get the most out of its cars. And if their utter dominance so far this season is testament to this relationship, perhaps we should pay attention. Mercedes highlights hybrid tech, turbocharging, aerodynamics, lightweight construction, tribology (both in making internal components and lubricants more slippery) and simulation as crucial to getting around the track faster than anyone else. These just happen to be some of the same things that make the cars we drive on public roads more fuel-efficient. Learn more in the press release below. It's a good read. Brammo, maker of sweet electric motorcycles, is teaming up with TEAM Industries to make drivetrains for electric vehicles. TEAM, which specializes in drivetrain technology, will also become an investor in Brammo as part of the partnership. "The electric vehicle market is a growth market," says TEAM CEO and President David Ricke, "and TEAM and Brammo will be providing a wide range of solutions for OEM manufacturers." Read more over at EV World. Vermont celebrated the installation of a new EV charging station as part of a Green Energy Corridor between Boston and Montreal. When finished, drivers will be able to make the whole trip in an EV with access to charging along the way. For $5, customers can charge their vehicle in about 30 minutes at the Red Hen Baking Company in Middlesex. There are currently only about 700 EVs on the road in Vermont. The state has a goal to get 90 percent of its energy from renewable sources by 2050, and getting more EVs on the road is crucial to that mission. Vermont hopes that expanding the charging infrastructure will convince more people to go electric. Read more at Vermont Public Radio's website. For it's new e-Golf, Volkswagen will use Bosch chargers for home installation and ChargePoint stations at its dealerships. Bosch will have various 240-volt options for the home, and will also provide installation. e-Golf customers will also get a free ChargePoint membership, and will have access to the company's network of charging stations worldwide. The 2015 e-Golf goes on sale in the US later this year. Read more in the press release below.

Are more diesel scandals about to erupt?

Fri, Nov 20 2015

More automakers may soon be embroiled, like Volkswagen, in diesel emissions scandals. According to the Daily Kanban, either the International Council on Clean Transportation (ICCT) or the Deutsche Umwelthilfe (DUH) will soon announce from 10 to 15 more cases of automakers cheating national diesel emissions rules. The outlet says three of the incidents are attributed to Opel. Studies conducted by the DUH, the University of Applied Sciences in Bern, Switzerland, and the UK's Leeds University found that Opel's diesel Zafira, Corsa, and Vectra models emit more NOx than European regulations allow when tested in ways that go beyond the European testing protocol, such as when done on a four-wheel rolling road instead of a two-wheel rolling road. Opel said the accusations had no merit. Specifically on the Zafira, the DUH asked Opel about the emissions findings, and Opel said that no General Motors software contains any measures to enable cheating. Opel then tested a Zafira of its own "both on a two- and a four-wheel roller dynamometer," finding that "The emission behavior determined in each case does not differ from one another." That makes this a case of he-said-she-said for the moment. The Daily Kanban's sources say the cheating methods "range from the crude to the highly sophisticated," with those at the latter end complex enough to render Volkswagen's methods "pedestrian." As for any automakers who might be named, the matter of real-world emissions exceeding a legal limit doesn't mean a carmaker has designed systems that cheat, it might mean the company designed the car to pass a test.

Volkswagen planning Up! hybrid model using XL1 powertrain

Sun, 24 Feb 2013

Even though we've finally gotten a look at the production version of the 261-mile per gallon Volkswagen XL1, this aero-shaped two-seater was never intended for high-volume sales. Fortunately, it sounds like the same isn't true for the car's diesel plug-in hybrid powertrain, which, according to a report from AutoCar, could make its way under the hood of another Volkswagen model: the Up! minicar (shown above).
A potential Up! Hybrid would likely be able to return some of the same impressive fuel economy numbers as the XL1, but it would be a more realistic car with more passenger space and greater production capacity. The hand-built XL1 will use a 47-horsepower, two-cylinder TDI engine paired to a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission, and the 27-hp electric motor and lithium-ion battery helps deliver an all-electric driving range of 31 miles.
One of the core pillars of the XL1's design is its lightweight construction with a 1752-pound curb weight, which makes the Up! a perfect recipient for using this powertrain since it weighs just 300 pounds more. The report says that the Up! Hybrid is still in the developmental phase, so a production version isn't expected for at least another 18 months.
