I am starting a 1.6TD build version 2, hoping for more than 40,000 miles :D

[theman53]

Yes mr. 8v I should have told more story. This is a cast iron 8v manifold with a T25 inlet flange and the TD04 downpipe flange. There are also 3 U bends to make the 3" downpipe with, I think 5.5" radius. I bought that turbo from Alcaid. I am hoping for soon and it looks like this

[Alcaid]

We just test drove one of those turbos yesterday @ 38 psi on a 1.6TD (ported 1.6 head with 1.9TD intake valves, 11mm Dieselmeken pump, governor modded, watercooled IC, h-beam rods, girdle). You will not be disappointed

how do you think it would do on a stock internal mtdi 1z w/ .216 injectors 12mm pump pd intake and 2.5 fmic?

Why so small injectors?

Even the smaller HE211W/HE200WG would be enough turbo to make your stock rods feel worried. You need less air on a TDI to get the same HP numbers compared to a IDI due to better BSFC. The HE211W flows 31lbs/min and on a 1.9TDI that's 240-250bhp (210-220whp?) Depending on your needs and goals but I wouldn't go bigger than that with stock bottom end and also considering the lower usable RPM range of the TDI, no need to put on a bigger turbo than needed.

Not a billet comp wheel on those, neither a ported shroud compressor housing, but no need for a billet wheel as you will not be running as sick high boost as we do on the IDIs to swallow all the air. Compressor efficiency is higher, it's a more compact turbo and price is slightly cheaper

Pm'ing you so we dont mess up the mans thread. 

[theman53]

An adapterplate might work on a stock 1.6TD manifold, as it's a very compact turbo. The turbo uses a standard T25 flange. Downpipe flange is a MHI TD04 design. I have made CAD drawings for both flanges if you'd like to cut them yourself or get it done locally. Oil feed is M10x1.25 thread (Garretts are M10x1.00), oil drain is 38mm bolt-bolt oil drain as used on many Garrett and MHI turbos. details here:



Don't have any parts already made to go with it, It's a brand spankin' new and unused turbo

Good news is the turbo is here. Bad is the exhaust flange that I bought for the downpipe which is a TD04 is NOT the same as what is on this turbo. I think it is a T25 or T3, definitely way bigger than the TD04 and now I am set back an entire week as nothing will ship fast enough and this is the piece that I have to fit the downpipe to. The rest of it could be ready but no downpipe. If anyone knows what flange I need tell me ASAP as I need to get it coming rush.

[Alcaid]

Man, that sucks! I have a CAD drawing I made of the flange if you have a water- or laser cutting company in your area?

[Alcaid]

There's one here at least, but shipping from Japan

I bought this and it was wrong. It says TDO4H in the title, looks like the flange on the turbo, but it is not. Since I want to murder small woodland creatures archery style is to get this done as soon as possible. My solution was to take it to the amish machinist 4 miles up the road. I told him what to do to some 1/2" plate so I can weld a v band on it. I told him to have it done by tomorrow night the 27th of sept. He said OK. That will cost me but might not be as much as the one piece I bought already and I am returning that piece so I am only getting hosed on the shipping. I wanted to have a downpipe tacked together by Saturday but it is not looking like it at all.

Not with that negative attitude

I am listing a 1983 Gruman Kubvan for a friend. It has a diesel motor not sure if it runs. 4 speed stick shift. Van needs some work but price is right. Thanks

scrap aluinum worth in value.........................

[theman53]

Got the flange from the machinist so I will be trying it tomorrow. I tacked the v band on it tonight and got some other stuff done, but this is where I could have had it almost ready to fit stuff to the car if the flange were correct to begin with.

[theman53]

I have about 18 hours in it so far on the new turbo making it work process...not close yet.

[theman53]

20+ hours...if it fits I will have a few more welds then on to the intake.

[Gizmoman]

It'll fit.
Cheer up - youre almost there.
This thing is gonna rock
