I did a search for "turbo" and was surprised that I didn't find any threads on adding a turbo to a stock 1.7, 1.8, or 2.0. Is this not a possibility or just not a good idea because of reliability and longevity issues? What would be better for 160-180hp, turbo a 1.8 or swap in a 6? What would be cheaper?

QUOTE(Mueller @ Aug 2 2004, 01:14 AM) Gene Berg made a kit, sold only a few NOPE! Bernie Bergman (cough-cough HACK cough) sold the turbo kit, Gene Berg is type 1 (beetle) engines only and high quality T1 parts. Berg has never offered a turbo even for T1. My research...1.7 heads plus headwork, 1.7 jugs bored to 90.5 T1 pistons, 78mm stroke, CB rods, valve train goodies, PEFI, exhaust, turbo...etc. No longer cheap...look below to see what I decided to do. |
