well i don't know too much about tuning my aaz so i don't know how far to go as well as how much the motor can handle?

without any fastener mods i wouldn't go much above 14 psi....
Without a metal HG i wouldn't do anything to be honest.
with a stock downpipe and exhaust i wouldn't turn the fuel screw up either.

unless you don't plan on keeping the engine in running order, in which case might i recommend you sell it to someone on here  :P people love aaz's.


All the info is here, i know the search kind of sucks but you will find what you're looking for. Have you hit up the "how to make your 1.9 aaz a faster car" thread yet? or the 1.6td version (they are very similar) ?

perhaps they do? 8)

I wouldn't know. I have a 1.6TD with an aaz head slapped on it.

ya the AAZ hg is MLS.

i doubt his turbo will even do 20, but if it does, it will be wayyy out of its efficiency range  :shock: and would be smoking pretty good (most likely)
