Re: VW golf3 AEE engine Turbo project
what do you mean with sanding the o-rings? i do not have a place to put the injectors. i was thinking of using a tube and drill it to 14mm, but then again the thube will get tho thin.

Re: VW golf3 AEE engine Turbo project
ok, I'e read it again but still dont understand what you mean heheh. but thats ok. I'e got an original g60 fitting, and I'm going to wiretap a tube with a 20mm diameter to M22. the original g60 injectorfitting should fit in the wiretapped tube.

Re: VW golf3 AEE engine Turbo project
what about TunerPro, won't it work with the Marelli ecu?

Re: VW golf3 AEE engine Turbo project
I downloaded tunerpro. but im going to use the G60 ecu, because i already have the g60 Throttlebody.
here are some old update of the progress..
some welding. Im quite happy with the results. this is one of the first times i welded. not to mention stainlessteel.
an old pic of the plenum. drilling the holes was a nightmare! the holedrill now has 1good swatooth left...
plenum on the runners.
today i started on the exaust
2piece 4-2-1 manifold
the downpipe comes to the original piece. its gonna B a wierd downpipe. from 50mm to 2x 50 mm downpipe
The turbo will be topmounted. the WG on the rightside. when the manifold is finished, I know the exact posisiton. On the leftside the IC airfilter and chargepipe's....not much space..
.
the holedrill was so fuckedup it took me forever drilling those 4 35mm holes.

Re: VW golf3 AEE engine Turbo project
you can sharpen a drillbit on a bench grinder, it's quite easy. just make the first grind on the edge side so it has a slight taper (5-10º) upwards to keep the cutting edge in the metal, then grind the rest away following the angle. problem solved

Re: VW golf3 AEE engine Turbo project
kinda ugly, but a lil paint hides the uglyness.
still need to weld the collector flange, but i can do that once i know where the WG is comming on.Why paint it? I got carried away hehe
Trying to weld Galvanised iron sux.
The runners work perfectly.
Used some compressed air to test it.
Blow in 1 runner, and you can feel a vacuum created in the other 3 runners.
