new black beetle 1.8T

Here is the cheap and most efficient way how to make it good "racing engine and transmission mounts" using Polyurethane Casting Rubber. I used Shore A70, but you can use anything between 60-85, everything below that will be too soft, and above will be too stiff...

Cut this and remove the oil from the inside...Properly clean, I used brake cleaner because it's very easy to use ...





Same for the other one...In the time you are waiting for this one to cure enough you can continue with the rest of the mount you can prepare and do another one...

Carefully mask this side.




Slowly pour the casting rubber.






When the first one is cured enough that you can handle it.Depends on the product, but mine take less than 10 minutes to dry on the touch...Take and mask this side.






Casting rubber is coming with component A and component B. How much do you need it?
For the middle part, we cut and removed oil you need around 100g for the main holes on the mounts you need around 230g for both of them... A+B=560g

Fitting Intercooler - Treadstone TR8C - 575 HP



Here is the marked part you have to trim...to be able to fit.



Also, this plastic needs to be trimmed a bit as well.




Plan to fit the oil cooler above and then make a hole in the bumper.





For now, all looks good.

Finally, have something to show...Work hard on the rear bumper and fenders. Still, I need to trim a bit and fit correctly, but the parts are ready to use...

Here you can see molds and one of the model I made.




Light and strong,I'm so supriced how light is...
I used 1x 225g chopped strand matt and 2x450g chopped strand matt


There is a still big gap,but that is because is not fitted yet.


Here is the final product...
