VF-Engineering designed this kit
from the ground up using the infamous "bullet proof" Vortech Engineering
supercharger unit.
The key to the design of this supercharger
kit is the simplicity in which it can be bolted-on. The kit is supplied
with every part needed to get your car up and running supercharged
on the same day. Power from the silky smooth VR6 engine is increased
from 170hp to 250hp and torque from 170 ftlbs to 230 ftlbs with stage
1. Stage 2 increases power to 280 hp and 250 ftlbs of torque and
stage 3 increases power by almost 80% at the wheels.
The VF-Engineering approach to kit
design and experience has created a bolt on kit with incredible smoothness
and driveability. The Mass Air Flow sensor has been relocated and
a boost overrun valve (pressure relief system) in incorporated with
a "tuned" intake for optimal part throttle and off-throttle deceleration.
OBD1 and OBD2 have both been fully homologated with this kit which
idles and accelerates as a VR6 should - smoothly and relentlessly.
The kit is set up in 2 stages to give
you an increasing amount of horspower and torque. Each stage is a
bolt on kit and can be added on to the previous stage.
| Stage
1 is desined as a simple bolt on 6psi for minimal fuss
and rapid installation. The VF software is the key to the
smoothness with which this kit runs.
|
Stage
2 requires the replacement of the OEM injectors with
direct drop-in Bosch injectors supplied. The boost is increased
and race bypass valve is included, giving a "whistle" sound
on deceleration. The additional 30hp makes mid-range acceleration
more aggressive, and when launching, makes you want to hold
onto something! |
Performance, reliability, and stock
feel are major factors in the extensive R&D carried by VF-Engineering
in Europe and the USA. The custom proprietary VF. VF software supplied
with this kit safely re-aligns all fuelling and engine management
parameters. Unlike other forced induction solutions, VF-Engineering's
kit is designed to work safely within Volkswagen's OEM parameters
thus minimizing the likelihood of spurious DTCs (Diagnostic Trouble
Codes) or Check-Engine Lights.
Every aspect of this
kit has been fully engineered for high quality fitment and
highly demanding performance and expectation. VF's in-house horizontal, turning
and milling CNC's and plastic molding plant, VF's industry
reputation and track record, and Vortech's reliability have
been fully exploited to create a product with internationally
un-rivaled material technology, quality, and performance.
Not all chassis dynos produce comparable
results which is why it is important to consider the "delta", or relative
power increase, measured on the same dyno before and after modification.
Power gains shown by VF have been found to be accurate on test vehicles
on 91 octane, with stock setups (i.e. throttle body, exhaust system,
cams, etc.). The VF software adapts just as the OEM software and
a slight increase in performance may be expected from the use of
higher quality fuels such as 93 octane.
The unique advantage of all VF-Engineering
products is the 1 year unlimited mileage warranty coupled with lifetime
software support and world renowned customer service. VF-Engineering
have been supercharging the MK3 VR6 since 1996 and have sold over
1000 kits to-date. This is a proven product.
This product is not compliant with the California Air Resourse Board and not for use on public roads in California. This applies to any aftermarket product that does not display a CARB EO#.

I can honestly tell
you the VF SC is the best thing I've ever done to the car. I'm
very glad I did it. The car runs so smooth and drivability is
better than stock. I've never had any idling issues as you mentioned.
The needle on my tach stays constantly in one spot at idle.
The car fired right up after installation and purred like
a brand new car. I couldn't believe how good it ran. No
adjustments were needed after the install. Everything fit
great, hoses were the correct length,bolts lined right up,etc!- Jeromy

I have
been extremely impressed with your customer support, which is
some of the finest I have seen in any industry. It is clear that
you take an interest in each and every supercharger you guys
sell, and I appreciate that.
The car is running great, and I am truly finding new wonder and amazement
in a car that I already loved to drive. Its a shame that VW doesn't
install your product on all their VR6 cars so the rest of the world
can join in on the fun. - Mike Anderson
