\"VW<\/a><\/p>\n

Stephan Fouche’s Volkswagen Amarok<\/a> came from the factory with a 2.0 L TDI inline-four and six-speed manual transmission. Stephan works at Mad Dog Racing<\/a> in South Africa and swapped the diesel for a twin-turbo 6.4 L Hemi V8. The motor features forged rods and pistons, Turbosmart ProGate50 external wastegates, custom exhaust, and Link Thunder G4 ECU. Behind the Hemi is a NAG1 722.6 five-speed automatic transmission running a OFGear TCU<\/a>. The Amarok still runs factory brakes and suspension. Listen to Stephan explain the truck in the video below. <\/p>\n
