Cheers guys
I haven’t got a youtube at the moment, although always been something I’ve debated. Maybe I might start one in the near future

Depending on ancillaries you can get away without even mapping as long as you keep stock injectors and turbo ect (who wants to do that, that’s boring!)

Wish you hadn't told me that now I definitely need to do it ...... stock turbo and injectors no fun cheers bud

Re: ASBO PD130
Ally rad turned up today. Don’t necessarily need this with a diesel but the old one was looking rank and you may as well upgrade right?
Got two 12inch electric fans and some silicone coolant hoses on the way too. Should tidy the bay right up

Re: ASBO PD130
Threw some more hours at the van today. Fitted the new fans to the rad:
They came with some nice mounting hardware which made fitting a breeze
We then fitted the rad to the rad pack:
Looks miles better than stock and also gave me a bit more clearance with the aftermarket fans. All that’s left now is to wire them up, which looks a little more difficult than I first anticipated as the stock fans seem to have their own inbuilt controller. So I’m either going to have to just wire both to come on at the same time or work out my own controller. Either way it’s something to wrap my head round in the next couple of days

Re: ASBO PD130
Been a little while since I posted. As always
Not much has happened. Pretty much been waiting on bits to turn up. Sold the old turbo and clutch to make way for the new bits
New clutch fitted:
Went for a 4 puck Sachs kit this time around, going back to a dual mass flywheel for a bit more comfort
New turbo:
Turbo is a JW2871BB so a slight jump from the 2060 that was on there previously. Turbos capable of 400BHP on diesel and air only so we shall see how we get on. Pictures don’t do this any justice. This turbo is huge!
Here’s a picture of it next to a popular Abarth 500 turbo upgrade we do (TD04HL)
The new intercooler turned up with all the 2.5 inch pipes so I can weld all that up once the engine is in. Downpipe will also need some adjustment and I’m going to be building a new intake out of aluminium once the engine is in too
Lots to do but not a lot we can do until we fit the engine. Have all the gearbox reinforcement stuff to build the box so once we’ve done that it’s full steam ahead!

Re: ASBO PD130
It will be interesting at which rpm the turbo will have power. The problem is the bigger the turbo the later it will start working.
Normaly you have the max power ( torque) of a 2l TDi at 3500 rpm and the turbo starts at ~ 1600 rpm .
How high would you turn your engine ?
Normaly VW stops at ~ 4200 rpm. But if you look at BMW or other brands more RPM of a diesel engine could be possible.
The Abarth 500 turbo .....
Greets Ultrashort

Re: ASBO PD130
Should be on full boost by 3000rpm being ball bearing. We had full boost at around 2350 with the 2060 so a fair bit later. But will make up for that in top end power. Will likely be revving to around 5500 with the bigger cam ect

Re: ASBO PD130
If it makes you feel any better.
It’s not running at moment stupid oil feed snapped when changing the turbo !
2 weeks ago it had a bent valve…..
So do feel your pain ( not as much as yours is a different league from mine!)
Was reading your thread thinking I wish I’d have spent more time putting engine In but in truth I just wanted it running now !
It isn’t and won’t be in same league as yours pal but it’s lovely to read your thread and see how far you can go and your options aren’t as limited as you think, because you’ve got the limitations and thrown them outta window !

Re: ASBO PD130
Ah that’s a bummer. If you get stuck we sell braided oil feeds. I need to list them on the site saying that so thanks for reminding me
I was in your boat with the cleaning and painting the first time round. It’s nice to have a bigger workshop and facilities to do it now but as you say, when your on a time crunch you deffo have to put your priorities in order
Appreciate the compliments

Possibly although I speak to so many people every day so forgive me if I don’t remember off the top of my head.
Yes we run a tuning company. ASBO_Performance
You can find us on most the socials. The van is pretty much a demo of the type of things we are capable of. As the company progresses so does the van. Hence a few years ago it pretty much being a few bolt ons, to now a full bay spray and custom fab ect
