Ok for the past 2 years i have been monkeying with a 1.6 idi. It is an excellent setup but i cant keep the head from lifting.... I am just wondering if you guys are experiencing any of these problems.
I am experiencing the same problems as you and andy. I have talked to andy and have ventured over to his house to check out his setup. I just thinking up the old sayin theres no replacement for displacement and clearly a 1.6 is not made for anything but good fuel mileage. I am impressed with the performance i got out of it but if a tdi can handle a much higher power with out doin anything why not build one up and go fast easy. I have already have done a bunch of risky things that nobody around me has done and its just to much for the little engine. I am just simply wondering if the tdi m will still have the same issues as my idi with pressurizing the cooling system.....hmmmmm
just take the normal boost gauge with about 10"metal hose, after that use rubber hose?Greetz, Benjamin
