How to install a turbo on a vw golf




















What's to install turbo on a 1. Thread starter jonathan2 Start date May 15, My dad has a jetta 1. Lastly, simply slapping a turbo on a NA diesel will only gain a few HP at best the turbo will clear out some smoke your NA pump produces , unless you swap in a TD fuel injection pump that has boost enrichment, i. Joined Apr 27, Location Piedmont of N. Don't Do It!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Not a good idea. The non-turbo 1. They may look the same on the outside but they aren't near the same on the inside!!!

So if you just slap a turbo on a non-turbo engine the engine will be short lived , I've seen this happen. If you really want more power either find a complete 1. If you go with the Canadian 1. And there is even a factory installed heat shield to deal with the extra heat the Cat generates.

All bolts on without issue and the shifter rods line up perfectly. Last edited: May 15, The 1. The current ceiling for a high performance 8v VW TD is roughly whp uncorrected, because compression leaks thru the headgasket. A few of us have experienced this problem.

CR has been lowered from to in one or two cases. He needs to take that car out and beat on it a bit. If he's got a bad actuator he'll be going into limp due to an underboost condition. If he notices no drivability issues at all limp mode, loss of power etc he just needs to get out and get that actuator arm moving. Just did a quick search, and this looks like a common problem with VAG turbos.

The dealer said the wastegate is stuck shut. It is possible that the wastegate swingarm is seized shut, but highly unlikely. What's more likely is that the electronic wastegate actuator is dead.

From what I can tell, this part is not available from VW, hence why they need to replace the entire turbocharger assembly. However, I did see that you can purchase the actuator by iteself through the aftermarket. An independent VAG mechanic should be able to install one for you at a fraction of what the dealer is asking to do.

I decided to bring it to a VW dealer. Their diagnosis is that the wastegate of the turbocharger is stuck closed Last edited by derass on Jul 22nd, pm, edited 1 time in total. The turbo will spin faster and faster, and boost pressure go up and up until: 1 the turbo blows itself up from over-speeding 2 the engine blows up from over-boosting and detonation Now these things would only happen at high load or full throttle and you can probably avoid those situations, but what if the driver needs to step on the gas suddenly?

Like to avoid an accident? You probably shouldn't drive the car until this is repaired. The VAG actuator has both electric and pneumatic components? I thought it's one or the other? I don't see any vacuum connection pictures in the link I posted.

I would think the electronic actuator would only be used to improve fuel economy. Remove the OEM downpipe assembly. The only component you should be cautious of damaging is the O2 sensor. Remove the 13mm nut on the underside of the ABS module. Unclip the O2 wiring from the retaining clip. Remove the O2 wiring clip. Reconnect the driveshaft and secure with the 3 OEM 16mm bolts.

Torque to 36nm. Secure the 2 lower engine mount bolts using a 16mm socket.. Torque to 72Nm. Using a small amount of anti-seize on the threads of the O2 sensor, reinstall the sensor to the COBB downpipe. Attach the downpipe to the hot side of the turbo with the OEM clamp. Insert the appropriate adapter for your catback in the COBB midpipe. I nstall the midpipe between the downpipe and catback.
