LL's Mk3 1.8t Cab

[topher]

The FPRs are a direct swap... and get a new one from audi, not worth p!ssing about with used parts for something as critical as that. 440s @ 3bar should see you right for 300bhp (at 90ish% duty cycle) which is the most you'll get from the k04 anyway.

ok cheers peeps. was trying to think that if i got 440cc injectors, will i need 4 bar?!? but you guys answered it

as for the injectors, i'm pretty sure they are 440cc, the part number on it is 0 280 150
the last digits have been melted away on all of them. they are bosch green tops, from an AUM running 350bhp. so im guessing they are 440cc. but just to be sure, is there any other green tops that would fit? so could they have a different flow rate?

im going to measure the space for the intercooler 2moro, and i will post up measurements. but would be good if you could bring it along, worth a look.

thanks

[LazyLunatic]

ok, so didnt get measurements lol

but have thought about respray, and i got a connection through work so i might be able to a get a respray at a good price. probs get it done in the same color, flash red. not sure if i want a respray done in a different color and leave the inner bits in flash red. costs more to get the all the visible parts resprayed.

got polybushes too, will get pics up.

ohh and vr6 maf on its way. going to use the 1.8t sensor and vr6 housing.

Haha quoting my text! I do do things, lol! What you trying to say? I was talking to my mates we went to Cribbs with, saying how your car used to look like a year ago to what it is now, and how much of a project it is and what it's going to be. They were impressed

yeah its looks ratty now, but look at what it used to look like ........................

same applies to most peeps cars on here too.

just ordered a Forge TIP. 225 BAM engine one. got it from DPM, hopefully its the right one!!

mmmm anyone know any good engineering companies that do k04 manifolds??

LL

[Josho]

Are you gonna put it all together then put it in, or engine on it's own?

How are you doing it? Friends and an engine hoist?

[LazyLunatic]

i got a very knowledgable friend to help. he's got experience of engines swaps. he puts bike carbs on everything too!!!! those that meet him in his ratty polo at bristol will know........
>>> he's gunna make a custom 2.5" exhaust i hope too

should be able to borrow an engine hoist from a mate. going to move engine and all parts down to garage this week hopefully. there is a few bits in there that need to be taken out as it was used for storage. but once that is sorted, i can start stripping the engine.

havent started stripping it yet, cause i know i'll loose bits and forget stuff around the house/garage. so i'm going to wait to get this place. get the loom off and send that away to qpeng, cause that takes 2 weeks. take all the k03s stuff off and start going through all the coolant/oil/vacuum/fuel lines that im going to replace and see what is what. need to educate myself on a 1.8t, cause i've never seen one before!

and yeah, im going to build it up before it goes in. hoping to get brakes this weekend, so they will go on before the engine goes in. as for discs and pads, going for black diamond.

also ........ this damn manifold is soooo hard to find!!!
