Everything for the Belt Drive of Your 1.8T
It goes without saying that your 1.8T engine should run like a charm. Tuned Volkswagen cars in particular should not lose performance due to a poor belt drive. When all the components, cam belt, crankshaft, pulley, etc., mesh perfectly, your VW runs like a Swiss clock. You boost the performance of your 1.8T and get the full potential out of the engine. Its response, for example, is improved by an aluminum belt drive. The improved acceleration has a positive impact on the turbo lag. For a better driving experience, you’ll find all parts you need for the belt drive of your 1.8T engine in our shop: Vibration dampers, crank pulleys, cam belt, crankshaft sprockets and camshaft gear.
First-Class Parts for Your Belt Drive
For the belt drive and thus the engine to run smoothly, you need some parts. Especially in engine tuning, you should pay heed to top quality in order to protect the engine from damage. This is why we rely only on truly outstanding products from car racing. Our 1.8T adjustable camshaft gear for 1.8T engines, for instance, ensures a significantly improved performance. With it, you can set the control times of a high-lift cam precisely. While the standard gear can be set only to one marking, the optimum value is exactly in-between for tuning camshafts.
Our high torque crankshaft sprocket kit comprises a sprocket with a predrilled hole for a special guide pin made of high-strength steel. It strengthens the belt drive on the crankshaft, something to be recommended indeed for tuned engines and the increased forces in the valve train.
Our aluminum pulleys allow a faster revving up of the engine. As a result, the turbo lag is significantly reduced. This is especially due to the fact that they are awesomely lightweight; the gear diameter has also been changed. The original belt can even remain the same here.
