Good Luck on your project, using the VW TSI as the basis for the hardwear will be the way to go. The most diffucult part will be the tuning of course. Keep us posted on your progress!
MK1 Cabby 1.8 G60TSI Buildup
MK1 Cabby 1.8 G60TSI Buildup Phase 1 (R&D)
Termite's MK1 Cabby 1.8 G60TSI Buildup
FYI: I have started building This site as a diary to all my projects.
PHASE 1 (Research and Development)
So, it starts... I've told a few people about my plans. I was originally going to keep it a secret, but as I dug into the scenarios I came to realize I'm going to need some advice. I’ve started picking apart some brains and websites; even started hording random parts. I'm in the R&D stage for my 1.8 TG60 cabby build.
The Basics: Background of the VW 1.4 TSI
In series is the way the 1.4 TSI Golf was designed, but that could present an issue with hot compressed air going in to the turbo. I'd need not only an IC after the turbo, before the intake, but I'd like to put an IC between the charger and turbo if I am going to do this.
Parallel was my first thought, since I wouldn't be running hot air in to the turbo, and wouldn't require two IC's. So it's either two smaller IC's or one large one. I'll play this by ear as I go. Space and placement may dictate this design.
Of course, this concept isn’t new or different by any means at all. Lancia had a similar setup in their AWD Mid Engine Deltas and were banned from the races for having too much power. I believe a few other manufacturers dabbled with this concept as well, but I haven’t dug that deep in to them. Honestly, the Lancia engine is what originally spawned this idea in my head. That and I saw some Skyline with it YEARS ago. I was fascinated from that point on. That and muh boy DuncMan brought it up in conversation again one day. It almost seemed fait for me to try this…
“Why use an 1.8 8v G60 as your baseline.”
Simple, the engine was free, and readily available. That and I figured a VR6 is much heavier, less ground clearance, and I didn’t get one for free. Don’t get me wrong, the VR6 is hella sexy sounding, and backs a huge punch in the pants, but I’m going to stick with the smaller engine to start. It was suggested to me by CanaryRadoG60 (not sure his vortex name), on the Strictly European Autosport forums to go with a 16v conversion for extra flow. Thanks for the advice mate, I’m going to look in to acquiring the parts.
Asking for a handout:
Now, I'd like to pick the brains of anyone who wishes to support my cause. If you have ANY input good or bad, please send it my way. Criticism, constructive or not, will give me something to work with. The whole point of this project is to attempt to do something "different", something hard to do. Hell, I may even attempt to find seal and hose kits for this to take E85. The thought of a green performance car had crossed my mind.

What turbo to use? I’m a bit new to the forced induction world, and don’t know the reviews and names of all the good turbo systems out there. I learn fast thought.

Problem
Stock G60 ECU re-chipping/reprogramming, MegaSquirt, other piggyback system, or standalone?
Hypothesis:
The ECU that came with this engine is from an automatic setup. I’m assuming this will work fine, but I wonder what using an auto ECU will do when running a manual. I assume the only difference is the auto ECU has kick-down control. Speaking of which, I need to sell that tranny soonish.

snstuning.com <---sam knows his **** when it comes to all digi set-ups sam might have some info on the set-up you are looking to tackle. he might have tried and or thought of this one as well. sam might be difficult to get ahold of, but he responds well to IM on the vortex. look up his screen name.

Conclusion:
================================================
Problem
Speaking of trannies... I also don't plan on converting the car to run the hydraulic tranny that mates with the G60, I planned on rebuilding and using my solid shift bunny tranny.
Hypothesis:
Of course I'll look in to changing the internals if I plan on producing an extreme amount of power. The bolt up should be direct as far as I have found otherwise... (Anyone?) I think the last owner of the cabby put a diesel tranny in it by mistake anyway. They said the old one went out on them and they had one put in from another car. Thing is, at around 65mph on the (120mph max) cluster, I'm actually rolling along around 40 something. That coincidently enough is about the same spot as about 45 or near there is on a diesel (85mph max) cluster. Either they put the wrong speedo in, or I have a diesel gearing. I am going to have to crawl under there or wait til I pull the stock motor out to check the stamping. If it is a diesel tranny, I might be able to get away without changing out the gears huh? Thoughts?
Test & Analysis:
Conclusion:

What about the Control Bypass Valve? [see diagram above] What do I use for that?

- Here's a pretty good write-up on how the 1.4 TSI works...
- Green Earth Technologies for green motor lubricant and cleaners
- Green Filter USA Lifetime warranty vs. K&N's million mile warranty. Well I know that's a stretch, but meh... K&N also over dips their rubber edge seal, blocking more of the breather area. While most of the Green's I have seen are nicely clean and not spilling over in to the breather area. Just a small OCD thing I noticed.
- What ever happened with these "Green Tires" I wonder?
- Squire's Rear Mount Turbo Systems The external mounting of this system helps to cool the turbo and keep the hot air out of the engine bay. Plus the metal hosing acts as an IC, cooling the air as it passes through the externally cooled piping. This system also reduces turbo lag, almost making my charger setup null.

Planned to acquire:

- Roots Charger (the engine I got was just a 60 basically, it didn't have the G-ladder charger with it, just the brackets and everything else.)
- Hosing will more than likely be supplied by Henry's Engineering in Maryland. They are one of the East Coast's Leading manufacturers and resellers of Aeroquip high pressure hosing and fittings.

Re: MK1 Cabby 1.8 TG60 (termitesgraffix)
F**K a 16v head, if you are going to be swapping out heads, do it right and use an AEB 20v head
E85 is a scam, thinking it is "Green" is not a good reason to use it...
Standalone would be your best bet http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif
E85 has an octane of ~ 105 which means it would resist detonation better than pump gas which has an octane rating of ~ 87-93... Not to mention there are other ways of reducing detonation like alcohol injection, and lowering the C.R. more
Good luck with your build http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif

That would certainly require me running a standalone on this setup then, yes? Man, that's a thought though... Not sure that would mate with this block though. I guess I need to also look up the bolt pattern and oil/water channel locations to see if they match. Man, I think you just cost me another million dollars and year of work.

Agreed, but it looks good at tax time. http://****************.com/smile/emthup.gif I doubt I'm going to go that route anyway. Was more of just an added thought really.

I saw you are going to use the 020 trans. I have to say, that is suicidal...

Oh, he's already done it! Nice! I'm going to hit him up for some advice. Thing I saw though was, he apparently has his charger running always and dragging the engine down. I plan on using the electro-magnetic clutch method to disengage the charger. I don't want to have to rebuild every 3K like he is either.

I am not sure where his orig build thread was, but I thought he was using some sort of a viscous coupling for the charger. ...unless that was one of my bad dreams of me thinking how I will be able to rev my 2L20v G60 to 8500 RPM

Re: MK1 Cabby 1.8 TG60 (RipCity Euros)
yeah he stated a roots type at the top. Im planning on doing the same thing with my vr. im looking at the eatons and Im getting mixed reviews as to which supercharger I must use. I have a GT40R that I hope I can use without possibly overpowering the supercharger. I would also recommend water/meth injection when running this.
