Ok here it goes..I put a 88 1.6 td in my Suzuki buggy...I did the governer mod....steel headgasket and non stretch bolts also intercooled it.I wanted to change it to serpintine belt ,,,,in my serch for a crank sprocket i got a 93 1.9td engine for free. But.....the top of the IP was not on it . other than that it is complete. My Question is what can I/should I use off the 1.9 on the 1.6 to gain a little more hp/tq? The IP cam plate?IP head?
I already have a pyrometer before you ask...lol
Thanks!!!
-
you could use the bottom end of the 1.9 and a 1.6 head... that's a pretty good tq gain right there. :wink: plus it might be easier to get the serp setup working on that engine, just make sure to get the crank nose fixed if isn't already.
-
You'd have kind of high compression though unless you took a bit off the pistons. Plus don't the 1.9 heads breathe better anyway which is why people put them on the 1.6?
-
Was this a 1.9NA converted to td? What is missing from the IP, the LDA?

nope factory td...Thottle shaft all gone...she's wide open
-
what about audi80 with 200+ hp using 1.6 head 1.9 block...
-
Well the serp setup will bolt right on. If you feel like taking it apart again putting the 1.9 head on will net you the biggest gain, short of using the whole engine.
Is this for off road use only?
You might find the 1.9 turbo better suited (depending where you're RPMs normally sit) rather then the 1.6 turbo which is bigger

he has a 1.6 crank and 1.9na pistons, i dunno what rods are in it, i think he used a 1.6 head so he could get solid lifters. but it ends up being a 1.7. cool ass car

It's offroad only..

here's what I have to work with...open to suggestions:
K26 turbo
1.9 td (free engine.not running..not sure of condition...does turn overr though)
..I was think of doing this
k 26 turbo
1.9 camplate
crank up the fuel...
so ...what's the good bad and ugly!
Thanks Kevin

I'd probably try to find a smaller turbo. The k26 will take a while to spool up. A k14 would probably work well as it spools fairly quickly. Not positive, but I think t3's spool faster than a k26 also. I will eventually be helping a friend of mine with a tube frame Zuk rock buggy, and was thinking the fastest spooling turbo I could find would be, but I might get surge then. I did have a k-14 on my 1.9 when I first got it, and it did spool very well.
-
Looks like Dr D. says a k03-003 would be a great choice, http://vwdiesel.net/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=12298
-
I think the k14 turbo is ok,so...we'll say the turbo issue sorted out. Now what would you guys recommend? :D
-
Anybody?
-
the current turbo on that thing should suffice right?
-
The1.9 cam plate and head wouldn't hurt, but with the top being off, you better make sure they are damn clean. Then maybe some bigger nozzles. The 1.9 injectors might help a little too.
-
I'll give it a try then...It'll be clean don't worry about...I'll assemble it in the house..when the wife's not home..lol
-
So you want torque? Get a small turbo like K03 from 1,9 or K14, not bigger. Or if you like to play a little more, then vnt. Good thing, that you already intercooled it. What about exhaust? Get 2,25" minimum, turbo to back. Modded stock pump will be fine for up to 130hp and stock injectors will be fine too (if in good condition).
-
Ive got a K14 to put on.My exhaust is 2" no muffler,I'm gonna play withthe pump some..I'm not looking for crazy hp/tq numbers just a little more
