Since the company specializes in VW\/Audi diesel and races another diesel Audi TT, they opted to convert this TT to diesel. In they engine bay they swapped a 2.0 L TDI CUAA inline-four upgraded with a GTB2260VK turbocharger, custom 3-inch exhaust, and CP3 Stage 3 fuel pump. The combo produces around 325 hp and 400 lb-ft (534 Nm) of torque. Darkside Development also installed a billet six-speed sequential transmission built by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kotoucgearboxes.com\/produkt\/02m-02q-0a8-sequential-gearbox-13\">Kotou\u010d Racing Gearboxes<\/a>. Watch the build process and testing at the track in the videos below. <\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\"
