K04/K03 HYBRID $$
That's what I did
GB
Isn't the T2 somewhat comparable to a K14? If not, what is the differnence? I have a T2 on my 1.6 and am just getting ready to install it, but haven't tried it, so it is just theory at this point. Anyone have experience with this?
Is the aaz pump give better performance than the standard 1.6 td IP?

the AAZ pump is not as good as the 1.6 pump in stock forms.
stewardc ,
Will the aaz pump work well on the 1.6 td without the 2 stage injectors? Will it perform better or at least as well as the stock td IP?

I would use a 1.6 pump if you are going to keep it basically stock.
I would NOT have used a VNT turbo, no matter what anyone says. Keep it simple is a good motto with these engines.
im with ya on this one buddy, i know from experience how hard it is to install one properly.
Which three guys couldn't get it to work? I can only think of one, Rabbitman, whose turbo never functioned properly. That had nothing to do with the difficulty in creating a vane control.
However, I really am interested in what you have with a VNT that my GT on the 1.9 doesn't provide?
I live at 7,000 ft of elevation and so off-boost power is reduced and turbo lag is extended. I can't stand K24s or T3s. I wouldn't ever put one on anything that was mine.
I really appreciate your willingness to imitate a semi-conscious buffoon for the amusement of myself and the others on this forum. You're right, I can't resist that degree of tomfoolery. Thanks for the laugh! ;D
OK so it really comes down to your application. In stock form a T2 or K14 would be adequate, however once you start changing things its all down to your choice of how you want the car to perform for you. Its going to be a lot of research, more then one question, and a bit of tuning it yourself. I hope other people can chime in on topic here.
Now here is what I have planned. I am going with a T3 and a giles pump, I am not looking for massive power, just better acceleration to get to speed. I am also going to bigger nozzles and adding a EGT gauge to keep track of temps. When I get a good mix of fuel, acceleration and EGT, I'll be happy.
Thats a nice looking map, A full 3:1 PR which is pretty rare for turbos small enough to work on our small diesels, and it still moves almost 20 lbs of air/minute.
Here are a few points plotted, fwiw,
3400 RPM, 10 PSI, at sea level, right in the efficiency island, it is a little lower at only %70, but its still pretty sweet.

The same 3400 RPM, 10 PSI but at 6000'
(http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e208/schmeldenhoffer/car%20pics/T3map2.gif)
now 3400 RPM, 15 PSI, at sea level,

And 3400 RPM, 15 PSI at 6000'
(http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e208/schmeldenhoffer/car%20pics/T3map4.gif)
And here are a few high RPM high boost at seal level and 6000'
4500 RPM, 17 PSI, sea level,
(http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e208/schmeldenhoffer/car%20pics/T3map5.gif)
4500 RPM, 17 PSI, 6000'
(http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e208/schmeldenhoffer/car%20pics/T3map6.gif)
That turbo can run 19 PSI up to 8,000' and still be on the map! Although at sea level it can only run 1 PSI more and stay on the map, 20 PSI at 4500 RPM at 0' puts it right on the edge of the map as does 19 PSI at 8000'. Which is really nice as you can set it to 18 PSI and forget about it, unless you are going to be WAY high in the mountains you'd still be running it within spec at WOT, but its not like you're going to be running around at WOT all day anyway.
Hmmm.... Now who do I know with a VNT20 for sale... o right me.
I still think the best turbo is no turbo. My 1.9NA is the bees knees.
I think that the ECO diesels were more about the environment then fuel economy.
Have you posted pictures of your build yet?
You should post what you've done so far, it's flippin sweet.
