Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

    Thanks mate, was a funny sight seeing that van on the track. Funny thing was I even made a joke about going on the track while we were waiting to have breakfast

          Well ordered some more bits for the engine, timing belt kit, waterpump, gaskets etc. Also found a german company making this top mount manifold...




          To replace this


          turbo should end up in roughly the same spot, will just need to clock the compressor housing a bit. Any one have tips on this? Is it as simple as unbolting the housing, repositioning it then bolting it back up?

            Looks epic! Nice progress.

            What sort of power are you looking to make at the engine, and at the wheels?

                    About the 3rd post down. T28 conversion.
                    Relentless is working on a t25 manifold.
                    He is testing one at the moment.

                      does look nice i only see bottom mounts though.
                      looks like it'd be a pain in the ass to fit though!

                      • Apparently easy to fit with the head off.
                        It is a bottom mount.
                        K04 version isn't too expensive either.
                        Not sure what he will charge for the T25 version but apparently its only a flange difference.

                          Epic! I'll have to come round with the XR5 to check it out once it's finished and sorted, the XR5 will give it a run for its money still
