Title: AHU turbo for 1.6
Post by: orangea2vr6 on April 23, 2007, 06:56:22 am

I've got a good deal on an AHU turbo and manifold that I want to use on my 1.6,  I know it's a little different as in oil lines and downpipe but I just want some opinions on wether this would work well or not for daily driving on my 1.6.  Any comments are welcome thanks.

get a pyrometer... for around town driving you will like it.  it will spool very quickly! but it does get quite hot since it is small.

imo it will be great for a daily driver as it will most likely boost fuel economy and make it quite zippy down low.
