VW Amarok with a 6.0L TDI V12

Darkside Developments started building a wild project in 2023. The company started with a Volkswagen Amarok that came from the factory with a 2.0 L TSI (CPPA) inline-four. Darkside Developments realized it would be a great idea to swap a 6.0 L TDI V12 sourced from an Audi Q7. The company also swapped the factory ML390 six-speed manual transmission for a Tremec T56 Magnum six-speed manual transmission using a Diesel Pump UK adapter and twin-plate clutch. Since our previous article Darkside Developments completed the necessary work to start the diesel V12 for the first time.
