So Dave with this new shop expect to see me sometime this summer wanting a dyno run

Sounds about right

No accel times yet as my clutch is slipping in 1st-3rd gears under hard acceleration. After the o2a goes in I'll get some 1/4 mile runs and 0-60mph.

I'd be interested to see if jimfoo can reach some nice hp/tq if his AAZ/1Z hybrid works out. A 1.9 m-TDI in a Mk2 would be my dream car.

Unfortunately I'm, not going for big power as my tranny can't handle much over 150, if even that. So you'll have to wait for the next aaz to tdi conversion. :lol:

Iirc it's a 1.6 camshaft, as that is all he had around at the time.

I had a chance to ride in it, last weekend. It is a MONSTER, we hit 200km/h+ no problem and was still pulling hard when Dave let out, this was only 22psi, as he was having some other boost issues at the normal 28psi that is usually run. It drives around off boost about as quick as a stock TD with boost. Perfectly comfortable for daily driving. I'm sure once Dave gets all moved in and caught up with his orders he will make a video. There are still a few more tweeks that need to be done. Cam, exhaust mani, and probably a different turbo as this one surges bad past 28psi. Dave and I both suspect at least one bent rod as well. This would hold true for approx hp with Andy2's findings when he bent his rods as well.

zagarus, how do you keep all that black smoke off your back end?

We are still trying to find the custom one off dieselious nozzles, that Jake (fspgtd) had made up, Mark (Malone) bought for the original franken motor, and were lost some where in the old shop. Those with some 1.9 bodies should give it at least 220hp worth of fuel.

LOL I think Dave will just keep rocking it till it blows up or till he builds his 1.7 bottom end. That pump is turned right to the end of its life, to the point it hangs at high rpm!

subsonic · « **Reply #163 on:** March 01, 2008, 12:15:14 am »

If a rod did get bent, are you guys thinking of replacing them with something else? I have not seen many other options for the 1.6.

DVST8R · « **Reply #164 on:** March 01, 2008, 12:26:58 am »

I think Dave will run it till it blows, or till he gets together a built 1.7 bottom end. The 1.7 will have custom rods, pistons, the whole shebang.
