Frugal [froo-guhl] –adjective -economical in use or expenditure; prudently saving or sparing; not wasteful
Thief [theef] –noun -a person who steals, especially secretly or without open force; one guilty of theft or larceny.
I think the latter best describes your actions.
A free flowing exhaust can actually do worse for the small turbo because it makes it easier for it to over-spool.
There are coolant pipes that have 2 or even 3(I think) ports for sensors so you should be able to find one that will work for what you need.
For oil I would run either a t fitting or delete the turbo so you can use the oil feed line port for a sensor

As does Frugal, I want to use what i have at hand! Not spend money to have other things lol. but yeah, Thief too lol.

Tyler, I dunno if I can take your word on turbo's
Hmm, does anyone know the maximum turbine speed of a k03? And how much air must pass through it for it to spin said speed?

So here's an update, this thread should be called Jeremy can't make up his GD MIND!
I previously wanted to just boost the hell out of my 1.6 and IC it.. I mean it would be awesome, my bros td does well stock in an mk1... So my done up one should do wayy better.
Then I got thinking! Let's just build an m-tdi pump and slap the tdi in there easy peasy.. No wait let's leave it electronic and swap it all in. Which will still be easy. Biggest obstacle will be the mounting and function of the pentiometer for the drive by wire throttle device of the ECU on the tdi motors. I was thnking I'd mount it in the engine bay and use the stock throttle cable to activate it, instead of fabbing a pedal mount which will be hellish, as its mad tight up in there...
From there I will only have to run a couple small gauge wires back in to the fusebox for it. The rest of the electrics are sorted and basically just need installing in to the car
I'll use the stock wiring for exciting the solenoid on the starter, so no need to worry about the clutch switch.. The fusebox will receive power from my stock ignition switch, to tell the ecu and pump to turn the hell on.. And I need to jump two pins on the back of the mk3 fusebox.. Peasyyy, I've had it running on the engine stand off a jerry can, and I could rev it up so everything seems to be working.. Cluster powered up and tach worked, so hopefully all wiL be welll!
What do you thnk?

What happens to the 1998 TDI ECU when it does not have the cluster plugged in to the fuse box? does it throw a code? or any sort of issues pertaining to the IP and ECU?

i know my VNT is similarly sized to a K03, and its advertised that those little buggers hit 1/4 of a million RPMS..
i imagine the K03 to be right there with it..

I am leaning towards using all the turbo bits from the tdi to make my na in to a TD motor. But using the k03 turbo, and intercooled. I have a td pump to use.. so it should make some pretty good power, from about idle to 4500.

still on the down time, and starting to get in to it!
Working out the logistics of the clutch.
Want to use a 210mm disk, and I have heard one can use a 16v PP for more clamp.. why is that. obviously i still need the 8v disk to have the same splines as the trans.
URGENT!! If I order a 210mm 8v kit and a 16v pp separate will it all work together

The only way to know for sure is 1 pin or 2 pin in the flywheel. That will determine which pressure plate to get. Yes it will all bolt up, and work perfectly as you are thinking it will. The pieces will work together is what I am saying. Just make sure which flywheel you have, as it makes a difference.

Is it the alignment dowels you speak of Lucas when you say pins?
what is the difference between the 8v and 16v 210mm pressure plates??

as far as I know there is no difference between the 8v and 16 PP other than maybe clamp force and the pins. I was told that the mexican pp are 2 pin and others are 1 pin... I was also told the MK3 are 1 pin and the rest are 2 pin. Just make sure that you know which pin you have and you will be fine. Also, the clutch must be the small spline IIRC it is 13/16" not 7/8" as the larger was the 16v spline. You will be fine. I have a clutchnet setup just like you are asking for, but not for sale.
