Our complete 60-2 crank trigger kit for VW 16-valve motors includes a billet hub to mount a precision laser-cut trigger wheel to the crank shaft. Some mount a trigger wheel to the outside of the harmonic balancer, but this causes synch errors as the wheel resonates on the rubber dampner.
In contrast, this setup is hard-mounted and delivers constant linear accuracy. Another enhancement is the 60 - 2 specfication vs. common 36 - 1 alternative. In one case, there are 60 teeth to count and in the other there are 36. Of course, there are always 360 degrees in a complete circle. Thus, the 60-tooth wheel can deliver engine position within 6 degrees of accuracy while the 36-tooth variant can only inform the ECU within 10 degrees.
Kit includes: billet aluminum crank sensor bracket, threaded body VR-sensor, new hardware.
Fitment: V-belted 16-valve motors with stock harmonic damper.
Note: The next level beyond 60-2 triggering is 46 & 2, but that's an entirely different discussion and dimension. Regardless, USRT has the TOOL that you need!
