Hi
Been trolling this forum for about a year collecting info. But still have some questions... about 16vt build (I'm collecting parts at the moment).
...hoping for 400+ HP

- what's the best bottom end for 2.0 16vt?
I can have 3A engine in good price, but AME-Racing from Germany (Berlin) is using TDI

bottom ends (630+HP and 1047HP)

Plan: Honed block, JE pistons (low-comp), SCAT/Carillo H-Beam rods, ARP bolts, lighted crank, new oil & water pomp, windagetray, Schrick oil pan, custom 228mm clutch, 02A trany with LSD

- best cams for 16v head 9A/KR?
Stock or custom - here are so many various configurations

Plan: Ported head, Schrick springs & retainers (maybe Schrick valves), 1.8T intake (right side TB), I gues Digi1 is not good enough for 400+hp so maube SDS EM4-4F (do I need MSD DIS-2 for that setup?) 700-800cc injectors

- best turbo size for 400+ hp?
Been thinking about: Precision SC6152 with custom made inox manifold & 3" exhaust, tial bov and external wastegate, big IC (same size as the Rallye IC but twice that thick.

What do you think about that setup (when the right bottom end & cams are selected)??

It's for strip and show off

I want to drive it (not trailer it) for meetings and race 1/4mile.
Let's say 2500miles/year (summer time only)
Please notice that in europe is a bit easier to find 3A bottom end than ABA (but anyway .. I found both engines

) and if I'm correct 3A b.e. needs additional gaskets to maintain correct CR but has forged crank

Anyway ... if you advice ABA tall block than i'll go for it.
AME-Racing is using TDI bottom ends with 95,5 mm crank stroke on 639hp project and 86,4mm crank stroke on 1047hp project
