I have a couple left. This is showing that my jig for the other bolt pattern worked, but it isn't finished. I still need to gusset them. I maybe making them with a counter sunk hole for the mount closest to the turbo to be mounted with a flat socket head cap screw...Need to try one first to see if it is worth it or not. Round 2 if they are ever needed will not be as troublesome as I think I have them worked out now, I hope.

Lucas..
i HAD to use the hydro mount for my VNT20 install..
and i had to hack the engine mount up even more..
its only about half as wide in some places now..
you wouldnt even recognize that engine mount now. its been modified 3x now, for 3 different turbo setups..
so, this mount (solid rubber, non hydro engine mount) can only be used on a mk2 with a SMALL vnt.

It has 2 sets of holes so it should pass on both setups...the 191 199 354 A OR 191 199 354 B are the engine mounts it replaces.
This will work for the VNT 15 and the stock vw K24, K14, and T3 if you want to put the mount in and install the VNT later.
Also, as ROR stated it can be modified to fit things. I did make it out of 1/4" plate, which is heavier steel than even the axle beam is made of. So if needed to be modded it should take some abuse. The base to start with against the block and the bent support are the main pieces and I am sure that will get you close to where you need to be with other turbos, so it wouldn't be a total loss if you need to mount a VNT 22 or something else.

As soon as I get to it I will have the mount completely universal as far as mounting it to the cars go. That ^ is the MK3 one bolt mount I scored for FREE getting a pair of shocks for a guy today. Guy even let me use his tools to take it
I will make another hole in the drilling jig so that I can have all the holes for every mount in the new ones...now you guys have no excuse but to buy them LOL

I have a guy going to test the MK3 mount hole as soon as I can get one to him. I have it done so as long as it fits I have all 3 different mounts ready to go. Let me know what you guys need. Next set will have them all made into the plates so I do not have to drill them after the fact.

BUMP.

this even makes it possible to run a LOW MOUNTED VNT20 on a mk2!
(had to modify the mount a bit tho, no big deal!)

Bump to this. I am making some now, but cannot seem to find the MK3 hole piece that I had for making the 3rd "set" of one holes for the mk3...headed to find a mount this weekend if I have to.
