superturbo!!

supercharger for while the turbo is spooling up then turbo kicks in. would be running some serious power !

That is true and the new VW TSI engine is fantastic, i use to work for seat and drove the Bocanegra which had a 1.4TSI engine and for something so small to be producing 178bhp was awsome, plus with the added bonus of having the dsg gearbox i had a smile everytime i got in it  :grin:
I wonder how hard it would be drop one of those engines into a mk1 or mk2??? The other problem is how much bhp could such a small engine handle????

Mate of mine has a 1.4 TSI rocco that's sitting at 200bhp at the moment. No issues at all. In terms of a conversion it wouldn't be far off a 2.0 TSI conversion due to all the wiring and accommodating the taller engine, at which point why not go for the 2.0?
Not low enough mk5
Not on the road enough mk3

if you want ultimate power with NO lag at all, you need to build a nasty littel fuel munching creature called a boost engine.  there are diffrent ways of building them  it can be done with 2 turbochargers but getting the right inpellers is a b!tch. 

basicly you build a jet engine that's sole pourpose in life is to blow as hard as it can into a very large turbocharger.    the jet can be fasioned out of a larger turbocharger,   if the turbo thats blowing boost in the engines direction has some boost fed into the jet that feeding it's exhaust stage this it to prevent the turbo stalling and it how the boost to the engine is regulated.   

the optinal way to do it is to basicly build a turbofan jet engine but the fan in a compressor inpeller desinged for pressure more than flow, this way is much much much mre efficent a lot quiter but still dose get quite hot  it is also much more reliable

the advantage of this system is you can have 40+ psi of boost from idel to the red line if you want with NO lag at all, it's actualy more responsive than a supercharger as the whole system is fully pressuriesd all the way to the throttel butterfly all the time. you tune like you would a supercharger enigne but there is no parastic load on the cranck from the supercharger as it's produceing it's own power   :laugh:



the downsides are.  they are LOUD,  they get very very HOT and f**king hell they guzzel some fuel a bit quick
all the VW's have gone bar 1.
