V6 MTDI Project

[darrenjlobb]

Bit of an update to this today,

Been daily driving this thing for quite a while now, just totally stock bar the mtdi conversion, but decided its time for some power, I know its not mine, but uncle who owns it wants power to, so is happy to upgrade!

Stripped it down this afternoon / evening, rebuilt fuel pump with different levers / changed gov as having problems with idle control, removed the turbo as have a replacement (stock is a gen1 GT2052V.






The new blower (GTB2260VK):




Quick adapter brackets, 30 mins start to finish for manifold and downpipe ones lol, dirty and quick, but will do the job:




Blower in position and fuel pump back on (I WISH I HAD PUT TURBO ON BEFORE THE PUMP!!!!)








Got some boost hoses to sort out, and get it up and running again, and will then be pulling injectors out and putting some naughty nozzles in them, and then we should be set for some big power, but i fear the clutch / bottom end may not agree, and gotta keep this one reliable sadly!

Getting 6 injector lines to fit between the blower and pump was an interesting period of time, it was bad enough before, but not its a nitemare, but all done now and nothing touching, got it half bled but have some issues with shitty stock audi fuel system as normal, so gunna sack that off tomorrow!

Cheers n gone
