Title: Thought I´d share some pics of my ride.

Here she is. A 1999 VW Caddy 1.9 D, slightly uprated with a KKK24 turbo and 12 mm rotor head, modified aneroid pin etc  :twisted:

It delivers 2.2 bars of boost at a EGT of maximum 800 degrees celsius. It has a 0-60 mph speed of 6 seconds. So I guess it runs fairly nice  :lol:

the new version of what we used to get here. Pretty neat!
Funny how your dipstick goes to the back of the block...
Get a nice intercooler in there and cool air to the filter, then you'll really be rocking!
nice job!

That looks great, that IC should make a nice difference

You are going to have major cracking issues with that welded flange unless to took the correct steps to heat the manifold before welding.

Non-dampened clutches are horrible if you want to use it as anything but a race-only car.

It´s not welded to the manifold. It´s a custom made "Bolt in" adapter made of 2 thick plates and a thick tube from the square flange on the manifold to the trapezoid shaped one on the turbo.
