Title: Larger Turbo?
Post by: Laurie on January 20, 2009, 07:37:51 am

Hello my turbo has gone on my 1.9 TD AAZ 1996 passat B4, since its broke I thought I would replace it with a larger turbo like a garret T3 from the mk2 golf diesel turbo and do a few other mods like boost pin etc.

I just wanna know how I would go about putting this turbo on, is it a direct change or do I need a different manifold and boost pipe etc?

Cheers

If you had the K14 as a stock turbo it will bolt up no problem, the intake doesnt fit after....so you would have to get a 1.6 intake. Inlet on the turbo is bigger.

You will also have to cut one little piece of the intake manifold, and the oilreturn line does not match up 100%. Some modification will be required....I just made a new stainless line 3/4inch ID, goes into the pan. Stock location blocked.

If you have a K03 turbo then you will have to change the exhaust manifold aswell, Along with all the other mods listed above.
