will any of the deisel turbo manifolds fit my 16v head. trying to think of a easy way to fit the tubby . using o/e vw parts. or any suggestions are welcome. alternately email me if you have anything for sale taht will fit cheers jim
Use an Audi 5 cylinder turbo manifold. Chop off the 5th runner - make sure it's the 5th!!!! But you'd needto useKKK turbo. K24(S2), K26(RS2) or a K26/27(If you're brave) hybrid.
cheers ears, shall have a look for formentioned parts, any recommendedplaces apart from scrapyards. thx jim
oh, if i chop off the 5th bit, is this then a direct fit or does it require further fabrication ? sorry for the dumb ass question
Direct fit. If you chop off the 1st runner - it's scrap. Try looking on a UR Quattro/S2 owners club forums.
hey great got a manifold winging its way to me, just on the hunt for a tubby and suitableintercooler now. was thinking off a 2wd cossie one, mainly due to the size and length, reckon it should fit behind the big bumper ok. jim

Dont ask me why but i have also seen on other forums that they say the 4wd cossie i/c is better and my uncle tells me it is also a common upgrade on 2wd cossies. ryan
yeah, i imagine it can hild more boost and has a bigger surface area. what headgasket you gonna use, or how are you dropping the compression. jim
I am using the 1.8 16v kr head with twin exhaust cams and the 2l 8v 2e engine block.Doing this lowers the compression and means i can also use the 2e head gasket. If you want a exhaust manifold custom built go to vw vortex and the person with the user name killa makes them to order. thats where who i am getting mine from. Apart from that it is a porsche throttle body or the r6 throttle bodies i have if i can work it out and cossie injectors and intercooler and a 200sx s14a turbocharger. ryan <!-- var SymRealOnLoad; var SymReal; Sym() { window.open = SymWinOpen; if(SymReal != null) SymReal(); } SymOnLoad() { if(SymRealOnLoad != null) SymRealOnLoad(); window.open = SymRealWinOpen; SymReal = window.; window. = Sym; } SymRealOnLoad = window.onload; window.onload = SymOnLoad; //-->
As regards to a intercooler just get one from a sprinter van coz it's more or less the same size as a cossie 4wd one. I called a guy on ebay bout one and he told me it was 70+vat. so still a good price
