he only issue with the gt28rs turbo is the amount of room you dont have.. the chassis leg is so close and custom manifold is the only way , have you seen teh size of it..? its maoosive and it doesnt jsut stop there at ehaust u have to ay out to get custom inlet pipes as there 3inch in all itll cost...

Dont, you did do dammage to the valves, no doubts about it ! Pull the head if you wanna asess the dammage and price-up the replacement parts. As i said, the parts will cost you the best part of £300 and if you have mechanical skills and the right tools(right sockets, a decent torque wrencg, few sp...

excuse my ignorance..: :oops: this isnt the pd engine ere alking about? if it is.. its easy lol if its the older 1z style engine with belt driven diesel pump then basically put number 1 to tdc, then diesel pump around look through the pulley holes untill the smaller hole is inlighn with the back pl...

full boost 22lbs @ 2700 rpm, suppose you could spray the intercooler but its more hassle, some older ones come with 3bar fpr, but bdw modles have 4bar fpr. Have you looked into a garrett GT28RS eliminator kit, what you need there is new exhaust manifold, 500cc injectors, revo map, will cost you abou...

Just because the cam belt snapped it not to say that any damage was caused, I have hade a few snap on these engines with no damage caused and yes some with damage, whip of the cam cover have a look at the follers for damage, set up the timing in the correct sequence as not to foul the valves on the ...

I have a k04-15 set-up on my passat, 398cc audi S3 injectors, decat full system back, Giac custom map, Dual side mount intercoolers and a 3 bar fpr, it dynoed at 220 bhp 270 ftlbs of torque on a hot day. There was a fair bit of trial and error involved. first I ran it with a front mount intercooler ...

Any idea what the torque figures were?

Thanks for the suggestion.
passat comes standard with a 4bar fpr and it seemed to run a bit rich with that so I switched to 3bar as most of what I am using is s3 related and s3 uses 3bar. 398cc injectors @ 3bar.

anymore ideas?

Ok think I will try the coolant temp sensor first, as ther is no setting up involved with it.

Yes I have a very basic version which lets me check and clear fault codes and read live data, cant change any settings with it.

Thanks for the info. Have'nt checked fault codes yet but i suppose its a good place to start, any idea what codes I should be looking for. Just a tought, would a streched timing belt cause this problem as it might effect pump timing? No history with the car and at 90,000 it might be way over due a b...

You can use other coolants, G12 is for life and does not need too be replaced unless tou loose it through maintaince such as water pump renewal etc, It can also be bought premixed, but as its not that expensive I would use G12.

My mate has a B5.5 V6 TDI which I do most of the work on for him as he is not mechanicaly minded. Car runs great, starts first turn of the key when cold but when the engine is hot it is very hard to start, can take up too 15 seconds of constant cranking before it fires up. All filters have been chan...

Ok some pics of a k04 on a bam engine v k03, I used the k03 in the picture as it has the same OD as the compressor housing on a k04-15. And as my k04 is fitted to the car I can not use it to compare side by side. Also am I right in saying that all K04-15 are hybrid turbos using k03 housings with big...

A k04-15 uses the same housing as a k03 just bored out bigger regardless of who you buy it from, I dont think people understand me on a bam k04, it is a totally different turbo as in much bigger so can flow more air, I will post a picture later of both turbos side by side so the difference can be co...

Could be wrong on this, but the only benifits of fitting a bam engine would be stronger internals and larger injectors. Would still have to use passat manifolds and K04-15 turbo as bam manifold and turbo ( which I think is called a K04-020) will only suit transverse setup. At the present I am fittin...

AEB has same internals its just an older engine with a big port head and throttle cable, where as the awt is fly by wire. Fly by wire engines usually make a little more power. But internals on both can cope with 300bhp. The map i have is stage two as its too suit a K04-15 turbo, I also contacted awe...

Single ecu flashed by vw speed who are giac agents, before it was flashed they said 250 no problem when it only made 220 was told gains could be anywhere from 220 too 250. can anyone sugget software that will see me up too 250bhp considering the hardware I am using.

No boost leaks, all pipe work is in good condition, spikes at 22 psi and holds at 20 psi. I have tried 3 N75 valves and currently using a J valve. new apr R1 diverter valve, Also fitted a fmic but intake temps were around the 60 deg mark and 207 bhp when dynoed, where as with the dual side mounts to...

Im running with bosch 398cc injectors, full exhaust system including decat pipe, 3" maf, 3 bar fpr, dual side mount intercoolers, and giac software and cant get anywhere near that kind of power, where am i going wrong?

I currently have a 1.8t passat, engine code awt, with a k04-15 turbo and hardware to suit which makes 220 bhp at the crank, I was hoping for figures arond the 250 mark, I am not interested in fitting garrett eliminator kits or big turbo setups. any ideas on achieving 250 bhp with a k04 setup would b...

It is a berather hose for the crankcase ventilation, part no 06B103221B.
