The start of my YCTA914 project....You Cannot Turbo A 914

Here is your chance to learn from my mistakes

I plan on including as much info as I can, including drawings in PDF format and DXF files for those that can use them. Use all information at your own risk, or don't use it at all due to it being the worse design you've ever seen (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

1st off are the flanges that'll attach the turbocharger to the collector on the European Racing header.

The turbocharger is a TD04-09B-6cm2 from a 3000GT/Stealth that ran the twin turbo V6 models (AWD I think)

More info on my turbo as well as many others can be found here:
http://www.stealth316.com/2-turboguide.htm

Currently nothing special done to the motor (stock '74 1.8)
Only mods is the header and more importantly, the aftermarket fuel injection, mine is a Link ECU

Just so you know, many times these are available pre-made on eBay and other sources, this is for those frugal people (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/screwy.gif)

PDF files:

3 flanges, no dimensions

Flange to attach turbo to the header

flange for turbo inlet

flange for turbo exhaust

dxf file of all 3 flanges

PDF files should open up in your browser, if not, right click>save target as

same goes for the dxf file

Free DWG and DXF viewer

another free DXF and other file viewer

I'm excited to watch this thread because of cool turbo stuff, but also because of Mike's fun 3D graphics. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/boldblue.gif)

Mike, what's your target as far as HP for this turbo conversion? I've got a small I/C (off of my Passat) if you need it.

Hi Sonu,

How is your project?

I'll be happy with about 150 or so hp.

I'm trying to do it less than $400 for the conversion, if I can keep it under that amount and I see no reason why not, it'll cost me $2.66 per horsepower.

How much for the IC? I still owe you some money for those early rear flanges......

So far:

Turbo = $250 (professionally rebuilt, new cartridge and bearings)

Collector>turbo = $35

The plumbing to the intake, and the oil lines and water lines for cooling the turbo might add up in costs so I'll have to really be careful with these items.

Keep at it mike.

I want to buy another 914 4, and turbo it. Been racking in the back of my brain for a while...

I think it would be awesome if you could market a kit... I would love to help with that.. sub 2k for a turbo kit would be cool.

Not that easy to make a good twin-turbo setup. The two left-side cylinders fire, then the two right-side ones, then the two left-side ones... So if you hook the turbos up to the cylinders on one side, you'll get exhaust flow and then nothing, then more flow and nothing. If you hook them to the front two cylinders, and the rear two, then you get a more constant flow of exhaust. But it's hard to package a front-and-rear setup like that.

Mueller, I am really looking forward to watching this project grow. After my six conversion is done sometime mid next year, I will be looking for another project. Being I already have a bunch of T4 stuff lying around, esp a nice complete 1.8 FI... Do it Mueller!! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/aktion035.gif)

Hi guy turbo on a 914 works well if you use the turbo from a sabb .This small turbo it comes on boost quick and will hold 9lb all day the inter cooler to use is from a isusu truck or a 1.8t .we have had two 914 turbo set up's come in in the past both of them made over 150hp .this is not hard if you have the tool to make it work

I have one from an old volvo 765, kinda big and outdated....I'm going to look at the IC that Sonu has and see how much he wants for it.....

Still working on a few of them, not in as much of hurry for those motorcycle individual throttle bodies, but I have not forgotten about them...believe it or not, I finished one project this weekend...I installed (my 1st time doing it) 3 recessed lights and a new ceiling fan...boy, does crawling in the attic suck (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/headbang.gif)

You can have the IC...consider it my contribution to progress, and I had forgotten about the hubs. Its small but is sufficient for upto 150-200 hp...it's used in all 150-190hp 1.8t cars and has 2" inlet/outlet.

You'll also need a BOV/BVP right before the TB...I've got one as well that will work for your hp/boost goals. You guessed it...it's off my 1.8t.

As far as my project, it starts and idles/revs fine with the new 034efi standalone. So far idle and revving it im able to get 14.5-15.5 A/F...and have a good basemap. I am planning on taking it for final tunign soon to get max hp.......but before I can do that, I still need to have those bearing put the trailing arms...can you help with that?

Talk to Tekkor, he seems to have a line on ductwork at reasonable prices... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)
