A little help with I.D and suggestons please

[alextd]

the JR is a turbo diesel,look at my post above,its also a 70Hp,your CR is a non turbo bottom end,no oil cooling jets for the pistons as far as i know,
the head is different too, the turbo head is a better alloy and better valves,so i heard,not 100% though,

Ah i see no cooling jets !! so thats the difference, cheers

so i take it my block is a CR and has nothing to do with a JR as the motor factors have suggested, just thats confused me a little, why oh why would a block be labeld a CR but actually be a JR???
you recon its a motor factor c*ck up??

I appreciate your input
thanks again

you could still have a very good daily driver, you can get more than 100bhp from that setup. but keep an eye on EGT and oil temps when hammering it.

you could keep up with a gti, but not for long if you want that engine to last.

Thanks!!!

So what sort of mods would you suggest to get 100 bph??
Gauges WILL be fitted :wink:

my friend had a 1.8 gti campaign mk1 and i used to keep up with that (just) he would just pull away from me up till about 50-60 then id be on him :twisted: and that was with the engine how it is!!!??
i think the turbo has been adjusted so it spools up earlier than normal and probably a tiny bit more fueling, but rest is bog standard.
