like i been saying, GET TO WORK! prove me wrong.. i wanna see it happen.. if your setup works good, i might just be running a different turbo, but i doubt it..
As you can see from prior pictures I am already under way with fabrication just waiting for some exhaust tubing at the moment. Gotta make a custom downpipe.
now, bickering aside, and all questions answered, i think its time to start your build thread..
Thanks to everyone who didn't bicker and did actually answer my questions. And as for a build thread why bother you already know it won't work cause you know everything remember. I'll definitly take pictures of the setup. Im in the process of taking everything apart to put valve guides in, valve job, and port matching everything. Without making it flow more air it probably won't spool till late in the rpm band. It's and air pump. Don't over think it.
it was hard to not bicker with you, you wouldnt listen to anything i had to say. not even about the coolant pump, or to just leave it air cooled if you cant do it right..
anyways, ive tried to keep all animosity out of my posts for quite some time now.. it seems like you are the one who is still a little butthurt.. like i said, i want you to prove me wrong.. i have a buncha good TE04 turbos, but ive nevet wanted to use one because ive been told they are less than ideal for use on a 1.6TD.. the guy who told me was a reliable source, so i thought.. anyways, sorry if you didnt like how i posted my responses..
i didnt mean for anyone to get butthurt..

The fact of the matter is the car the turbo is coming off of had 150000 miles and I have never seen any issues with coolant boiling like you say. It's pressurized so it has no where to go. I do listen when facts are given and although I might not use that pump just yet on the car I probably will because it seems like a good idea not only for the turbo but for the coolant in general to circulate due to the fact most cars coolant temp goes up 20 degrees after the car is shut down. But is it actually needed like it's a life or death situation for the turbo and engine definitly not.
As for the teo4 being used on the 1.6 I do think it will work pretty good with all the propper mods in which to make it work. There are even people on this board who are using the exact turbo and making
it work great to something like 180 hp. Which is about the limit for that turbo anyway. The hardest part of the whole making it work is the fact that the flange patterns are different and an adapter has to be
made for the header which you have to buy also.
The reason I bicker is because other people have answered the questions in which i have asked and any time I say about plumbing it in the way the turbo has been run for 20 years now you tell me it is incorrect. Or for example you told me the Na oil filter adapter would not work and when I asked why instead of giving the facts why you basically said because it wouldn't. This Is not helping me out. Saying the hole will not flow enough oil would. Which was eventually answered by someone else and it will be getting drilled and tapped soon no big deal there.
And now you guys are bickering about bickering.
This thread is DONE.
