hmmm just kicking around some ideas, how difficult would it be to drop a 2.2l dodge turbo motor into a A2 jetta? I know its been done in a A3
You aware what forum this is? How dare you post crap like that here.
Blasphemer...
it would still look like a VW on the outside...
It's just an idea..
got the same idea kicking around on a Turbo Dodge site..

Perhaps, but it would run on that awful (and currently rather spendy) benzine and have a bunch of spark plugs and electrics and such for igniting the nasty stuff. Torqueless fire hazards, them gassers.
A topic better suited to the present company might discuss a VW TD fitted to a shelby daytona. That huge nose could house the mother of all intercoolers...
I saw a one of those dodge mini-ram pickups (based on the Daytona platform) and was thinking the same thing - it would be fun to stick a TD into one of those to create a caddy with real leg room...
If power is what you're after then there is no reason to even go there. My friend just finished up this car:
http://www.euronationmotorsport.com/projects_91_golfgti.html297 whp (sometihng like 350 crank) on a 140k mile ABA bottom end, unported 16v head, race gas and a street tune with stock ignition actuated off of megasquirt. There is a lot more potential in there, but if he pulls the timing back much more I'm fairly certain it will break the engine. Throw some forged pistons, pauter rods, and real ignition at that combination and it could easily see 400 whp.
:roll:
Where is the emoticon of the baloon headed dude loosing his lunch...
Have I lost my mind and wandered into the 'tex...? :wink:
I've seen a 1.6TD powered Rampage........... :lol:

it currently holds a 94 cummins IC
also I have a crap load of 2.2l turbo stuff around my house, 3 blocks, 1 complete bottom end, 1 complete motor with a nasty head on it, 4 good heads, 3 good turbos 6 intakes, 6 stock IC, 3 stock IC with end tanks cut off to make one giant IC that flow 1200cfm thats off of the top of my head.
