Ok so I'm back where I was 4 months ago...Sitting in the Garage staring at the golf again...Last time it sat there we did the diesel conversion... This time only 2 words came to mind...Twin Turbo :twisted: ... Is it even possible? I'm going to put a Giles pump on it... 3" exhaust, intercooler...So does anyone have any ideas?
There's a number of twin turbo TD:s around where I live..
I can post info and pictures when my friend's car is finished.
1.9 TD had 260 hp, but it wasn't enough so this time twin turbo instead of combination of blower and turbo
haha Nice, what kind of 1.9TD does he have to get 260hp out of it, mines stock with 90HP :shock:
1.9 TD had 260 hp
Whoa, ummmm, i'm a bit skeptical about those numbers, perhaps your friend has exaggerated a tiny bit... if not I really want to know his secrets
nonetheless the twin turbo setup he is working on sounds interesting
Edit: Turboj, just read your build post... I'm impressed :oops:
One other thing i'm looking for is to put an intercooler on it...Does anyone know I can get one... or do I have to build one???
I would get a ebay intercooler kit...they are hard to beat IMHO...
I think a K26 and a K14 would be a cool compound set-up.....
I am currently working on a twin setup, but more for the staged that compound idea, I will be using a K03 from a gasser and the stock K24.
when I actually get my car back I will do this and report back, that is if I don't go and get a G60 charger I found for $150...

Not a shadow of exaggeration on those numbers. I won't even bother posting up the dyno runs, but the more impressive thing is that the Eaton blower helped it make 190 Nm at IDLE ( that's 140 lb-ft ).
There's a 1.9 TDI Lupo somewhere in Europe as well, that has 400 hp...
Why twin turbo?
Compund would be better! Small og Big turbo.
Or just a BIG single turbo, like me :twisted:
255hp/460nm on a 1,9D with 2860RS, 11mm IP.
no one said you can't go twin turbo and a blower
this is a monster build in my opinion:
twin turbo (doesn't really matter which just need 1 big one and 1 small one to spool the big one) a big turbo and a blower would work too
propane, NOS and water/meth injection
GTD nozzles
uncontrolled boost (ie. no BOV & no waste gate)
big intake manifold
big exhaust manifold
everything at least polished
3 inch dp and exhaust
timing advance
governor mod
12mm pump head
tdi cam plate
big plunger to go with the 12mm pump head
and the necessities to hold it all together.
would make for one BEAST of an engine that would probably self destruct without some impressive rods, ceramic coating, ARP everything, and the list goes on
