methanol just keeps your egt's down. its more a chemical intercooler rather than a power adder.

...although if you can knock your EGT's down then you can run more fuel... :D

true, so i guess you could get more power from using methanol, but just not directly from the methanol.

so....... run the twin turbo setup with meth injection.  hmmmm... but that cuts out the ability to daily drive.  I still want that.  Gotta teach these yunguns a thing or too "them and their stupid mustang gt's"

if you run compounds, you WILL bend rods, blow head gaskets, warp/crack heads, etc, etc. if you want THAT much boost, go with one big single with a shot of nos to spool it. most people on here are staying away from compound turbos for that reason. vw's dont take huge boost like a 12v cummins. if we could come up with a cast iron head, or some sort of head girdle, we could build some serious horsepower. but the heads on our vw's flex with too much boost. the head actually bends..

 :o wicked  I kinda want to see that........ but I also kinda don't :'( okay so what can I do "other than nos to spool the big bad boy up?

44 psi thats ruff I think that 35-40 will be far more than enough for me.  I was thinkin mid engine mounting it too good? bad? put a firewall behind the drivers seat, use the moonroof as a vent for the intercooler/cold air induction and make a custom exhaust to come out of the roof flush with the roof 8)

why not just bolt it in the front of your rabbit? it botls in, its gonna be fun as hell. its like driving a street legal turbo charged diesel go cart. and if you do put the engine in the middle, i would put the i/c and radiator behind the grille like they were supposed to be. just use an electric fan, it will work great, and run the exhaust right out the stock spot. but a car like this has already been built, somebody over in europe has a 78 rabbit with a Mtdi and an audi transmission backwards. its basically just like a bug drivetrain setup. i just think that pulling air through your sun roof would be kinda dumb. sun roofs dont breathe very well as it is, so why not put your stuff to be cooled somewhere that they get tons of air? ie: stock location.. i was just thinking of the toyota previa van, they had the engine on its side about mid way back, and a jack shaft off the front running the accessories.

custom roof scoop, already made it.... well, the mold at least  I'll post up some pics later.  My wife still has connections in Okinawa, Japan so I might just be able to get a hold of one of those.

The roof scoop woudl just be aerodynamic drag..  Since the front end of these cars is already an aero dynamic drag why not take advantage of that?    Putting the rad and IC out fround woudl help keep some heat ou of the passenger compartment..  Remeber that not only do you need to get the air into this stuff, it's gotta come back out just as fast, well probably faster since it's hot and expanded... 

This is all getting me thinking about a TD Fiero again..  ;D

Ok, I got my pump in today, I'm going to look into the DIY section for the rebuild info, however, is there a place that I should go to or stray away from for the rebuild kits?  also where can I get one of these land rover pins for the pump or is it even worth it?

thanks guys,

Kevin

NOBODY ON HERE really has a build up with a nitrous setup if i remember right.


Dr Diesel had a mk2 TD with nitrous.

On an unrelated note I heard rumors of a guy that built his own cast iron head. 80 psi rings a bell ;)
