Are you going to go with local tuner on the IMS kit or use the UM ECU sw from Iroz?

 

Probably get it custom mapped with info and feedback from Iroz.

Few pictures from the engine builder...

 

 

I have a brand new head just waiting to get fitted, perhaps in the future I could have it reworked to flow as good as yours =).

 

What is the main reason for not going with the map from Hank?

With it being in a different shell we have to alter a few things.

So he can't do a map (IMO) that allows for my different parts like Exhaust, intercooler etc... which are one offs.

I'd rather get it mapped once fitted so it can be done to the car's particular spec.

Understood, logically custom map will be the best option in your case.

Going with MRC tuning?

If I knew who they were, I might be able to answer that question.

MRC tuning are quite big in the Audi world, I have seen them tune a lot of S4s over the years. (I was looking at 2.7s a while back).

They are known for tuning TTRS/RS3 and other high power Audi cars.

Yes it will be tuned at MRC starting with the iroz motorsport map as a base

Never heard of them.

Never heard of them.

Me neither, which doesn't prove much except that you're not the only one to never have heard of them.

I've heard of them :p 

 

Have a good rep in the Audi community, on the bigger engined Audi's.

Video from the USA, showing what this turbo kit can do in a manual TT-RS.

 

 

This is running on E85, a fuel often used there for higher power.

Obviously mine will run pump fuel so less power, 700bhp or so.

Yeti Space Program 

Thats astonishing......

That's Richard LOL.

Feel sorry for the clutch/gearbox lol

PAH!! probably filmed on fast forward

What was the main reason for changing the entire wiring loom? What prevented you from adjusting the current one?

The TT-RS clocks, ECU to run 5 cylinders and engine.

And Canbus.

As I understand you wanted to stay with the OEM Yeti clocks and wiring loom? 

I've got the wiring loom for the engine but was hoping to avoid changing the remaining loom. The thing that makes it more difficult for me is that I have an older generation of wiring for the PQ35 VAG platform (Yeti/Leon/A3/Golf...) . Thereby my relays, BCM, Clock utilizes completely different connectors. I've seen the TTRS swapped performed on a Golf MK6 (PQ35) with no change of clocks or wiring. Just trying to determine what path to go myself...

No I wanted the TT-RS clocks as they fitted perfectly into the Yeti dash pod.

 

Really looking forward to seeing the latest incarnation of the Yeti at Castle Combe.

500bhp on a wet Snetterton was already something special. The extra power will be unbelievable

A small Yeti update...

 

The Cams have finally been produced in the USA and are now on the way to the UK so we can finish building the forged engine.

That's good.

 

Slightly not so good is still waiting on the turbo kit, as they are waiting on a part of it from the fabricators.

Fingers crossed it wont be too long.

 

At least once the engine is done the whole thing will be ready to put back in when the turbo kit turns up.

 

 

A slightly more interesting thing is that a company that makes it's own ECUs (including many race cars) has shown interest and seen the lack of a decent 5 cylinder aftermarket unit.

They have agreed to produce an ECU for us (thanks to JDR's intervention and an interest in this oddball car) meaning we can do a bit more custom stuff and be free from having to use the typical Audi tuners.

Which I'm quite happy about.  Bit of freedom.
