golf 1.8t
« on: 03 February 2011, 19:49 »
jsut put a mk4 gti engine in a mk1 and i took it for a test drive to make sure its ok and if i put my foot down it boosts then drops back and stop boosting for some reason , but i have noticed that a pipe is missing off the n75 valve which goes onto the main boostpipe i think could this cause it ?

or 8mm silicon is just as good :P ;). I am still comfused as to how you managed to do an engine conversion... but not sort the hose from the charge pipe to n75... of course it will cause issues...??
