If you wanted to go crazy, a TD pump with the LDA sensing nitrous pressure would help a good deal.
hey guys i am new to tis forum, i just found it through www.vwdieselparts.com/forum anyway has anyone here ever tried porting the 1.6 head? i have a junk head that i cut apart for the thickness's of the port walls and i am going to try to get work to let me use the flowbench for testing, but i wanted to know if anyone could give me any advice on a startig pointalso where is Giles located at? for the modded out NA injection pump?and what does it normally cost?thanks guyslaterjustin
as for the turbo head thats where another problem lays I have the 11mm heads and i dont think that the 12 mm heads are a bolt on are they??I am in the mood to expirement with this head to see what i can get out of it, I am really interested in the 22 hp gain in the injection pump how much does Giles get to do all of the modificationsand its a *** to find any kind of volkswagen stuff in mid michigan, the only place that i have found is in Auburn Hills (detroit area) and they are a little pricey on their original parts (and I am a poor college student where they are raping me with tuition at Kettering University)one more thing, how do I tell the difference between the 1.5 and 1.6 without tearing them apart?? are there any casting markings or differences, both of my engines are out of 82's and i just assumed that the one that came in the truck was a 1.6 and then the one that i bought the guy said that it was a 1982 1.5 one more Q what is the better exhaust manifold single or dual outlet??thanks guys this forum is really good I have already read through all of the old posts
does a turbo head flow more air? i thought they were the same. maybe i'll have to find a turbo head to stick on my car again.Mark
