2.0L Turbo
General comments:
Hi,
Love your new turbo page. Perhaps you can give me some advice
on my turbo project.
I've installed a custom turbo (small one) with a G60 intercooler
and some hardware store intercooler plumbing utilizing pvc and
rubber elbows. Not a good idea hugh? Nonetheless, I'm still
able to see 7 lbs of boost at 5000rpm on my 10:1 (crazy, I know)
2.0L motor . Got some questions on the install.
1. Serious turbo lag up to 4000 rpm and then NO power after
5000 rpm. Why?
1a. I'm running the Hor 270 cam. Too much overlap?
2. The hose going into the intake manifold (not the PCV breather)
with the brake booster(?) and other vacuum tees attached, should
this still go there or should it go into the turbo inlet?
3. The hose going into the rubber boot next to the throttle body
(also goes into the charcoal canister I think). Should this also
be going into the turbo inlet or outlet.
Right now the car is running weaker than stock. I also have the
exhaust just exiting from the side of the turbo and not connected
to the system. Does this increase turbo lag?
BTW, I've got the ignition back on 6 degrees advance and using the
Audi 5000 warm up regulator and I'm getting no pinging at all even
at 7 lbs.
Thanks for any tips.

General comments: Aren't A1 GTIs just the most fun-to-drive cars to come into existence?!!! I just drove my '83 GTI w/ 195,000 mi from New Jersey to my new home in Illinois and enjoyed evey mile of the drive. My Dad bought the car new in Dec. 1982. We got one of the first ones. In fact it was delivered 2 weeks late because the enthusiastic Pennsylvanian hunters that assembled the car shut the plant down during hunting season. Anyway, our GTI has been and probably will remain the best car we have ever owned. Therefore I feel I owe the car a new life. Not that there is anything wrong with it but now that I have a substantial income, I can buy all the performance parts and pieces I have always dreamed about. Exploring your page has given me food for thought on some of the aftermarket components out there. I am still not sold on the turbo system yet. I think I am going to go with a strong running 2.0L 8V. I hope to get a reliable 150 hp. I hope the new coat of silver paint, Cabriolet lower body work & bumpers, 16" TSW Trophys & exhaust rumble don't give it away. I hope when it is all done the motoring public will think to themselves: "That's a Rabbit??!!" It's not a Car. It's a Volkswagen.

This is a huge pain in the butt because you have to remove some of the timing stuff and swap the alternator mounts, crankshaft pulley and waterpump pulley. The pump it's self is hard to remove, there must be about 6 bolts holding it on, and 6 more bolts holding on the huge steel bracket. Then you need to add a spacer for the starter bolt since there used to be an a/c pump brace mounted there... The car needs new shocks/struts/springs, radiator, top, parking brake cables, and exhaust. I want to stick with the origional (but crummy) single outlet header. I'm thinking of buying a stock downpipe, intermediate pipe and gaskets from the VW parts guy we go to, and going to Midas to get just the tube that goes over the rear axle (since they use generic mufflers, they don't have a 1 piece muffler/pipe combo deal) and then go to the auto parts store and buy a $20 cherry bomb to stick where the muffler should go. I don't really care about peformace at this point, I just want it to be sound good, locally bought, and cost under $200. Any comments about this exhaust idea? Email me. General comments: Your page is great. I'd rather see pages focusing on people's cars and what they've done to them, and things they've learned than see pages of someone posting about someone else's cars.

Web Page Address: n/a
Favoite Volkswagen owned:
Year: 1984
Model: Rabbit
Type: GTI
Engine: 4 Cyl 8 Valve
That has the following mods:
Most of my mods right now are in the suspension department.
They include: Boge Turbogas struts and shocks ('cause I'm not
autocrossing yet!), Neuspeed "Racing" Springs, Neuspeed upper
stress bar, 16 valve Scirrocco lower stress bar (because you
don't need to waste more than $100 on an aftermarket bar
when you can get the real enchilada from VW at a yard for $35!!),
Scirrocco 16 valve brakes front and back with Repco Metalmasters
(those bastards will stop the earth!), blue 15" BBS Jetta GLi
rims with 195/50 R15 BF Goodrich Comp T/A ZR4s (saw them on a
Mustang Cobra, drove it and had to have'em!). As for the motor
I have done relatively little because I plan on dropping in a 2
liter 16 valve next week! But here they are: "G" grind cam
(bye bye bottom end!), K&N airfilter with "Swiss cheesed" airbox (
that mod is completely psychological), stock throttle body with
a very teeny screw in the slide for the secondary to make it
"come on" a little faster:), 2" techtonics cat back exhaust.
Tranny mods: PEOPLE! Don't dump $180 on a Neuspeed or even
Techtonics short shift kit when you can simply relocate the
shift linkage to a hole that you drill yourself halfway down
the vertical portion of shift arm to. It takes 15 minutes
for a 50% reduction in throw.....easy:)
General comments:
Damn, maybe after reading about your turbo install I should do
one myself:)

Email address: GCHay-Roe@cwix.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ General comments: From the looks of your GTI, it appears that you own one of the nicer specimens in existence. I've always loved the look of a clean A1 GTI, but they are getting rarer and rarer. It appears that you've struck a tasteful balance between stock and custom, while keeping a little of the "sleeper" personality all of us A1 drivers love. People just don't expect our little cars to go so fast, do they. As for my response to the page, definitely DON'T change it to include anything but A1 cars, there are already LOTS of pages for A2, A3, etc. cars, but all too few resources for those of us, the few, the proud, the drivers of A1 Volkswagens. Keep on providing a resource for us to look, get ideas from, and drool over one another's cars. Take care, talk to you soon on the MK1GTI mailing list...

It has the original Cashmere white paint and blue interior. The car was cheap to buy, inexpensive to maintain, and a blast to drive. Unlike most VW enthusiasts, I don't plan on ever trading up to an A3 VR6--they simply do not cut into corners the way the older cars do. I thought GTIs were always about handling, but I guess horsepower and luxury features--at the expense of a balanced chasis--is what most people want now. This is a cool site; hopefully it will encourage others to hold on to their Rabbits instead of junking them. I love what you've done with your car.

NONE My car is slightly modified and there are many cars on the road with way more HP than me and I embarass the hell out of them at the stoplight grandprix. Who the hell would want an A3 vr6 when a slightly modified A1 like mine is only .03 sec slower than a vr6 and on top of that a A3 vr6 can't match the handling or raw feel of sports car that an A1 can provide. I'm not knocking the A3 Vr6 I think it's a beautiful car but I'll tell you if I were to buy one I would also have to keep my A1 (I am greedy). I bought my 84 for $100 cdn and it has only a small amount of surface rust that will be fixed for about $500 and it will look like a diamond, the interior is also mint, get this it was a guys winter beater I've put about $900 into it so far. my best pass is 15.8 sec in the quarter.

So after a year and a lot of work I finnaly got it to great running codition. I have pictures from the whole prodject.

It was beginning to fall apart. I ended up selling it back to my dad who now uses it to commute to work in. Presently, I have no VW's, but am looking forward to getting an a4 Golf sooner or later. By the way, you have the nicest Rabbit I have ever seen in my life. Keep taking good care of it, and never, EVER let anyone talk you into getting rid of it like I did.

The car is black. The interior features are Recaro's(power),momo peddles and shifter,with a Italvolanti steering wheel.Complete with a 12 speaker system,and a alpine alarm complete with power door locks.At present a roll cage is being fabricated to fit my car. The engine is still an 8 valve done though completley with every possible bolt-ons available.However it has well over 350,000 km and is ready for a winter rebuild project which brings me here. I want to keep it an 8 valve and non turbo. I would like to maybe upgrade the block to a 2 litre, but am unsure whether I should upgrade the mechanical lifter head to a hydraulic one. I would also like to go full out on the motor, i.e bore it out with oversized pistons,port and polish everything from the intake to the head. The parts I have are a timing gear,cam, header, throttle body,European fuel injection, oil cooler,thermosat and switch...you know!! Other enhancments are the 16 inch monsoons which I am looking to upgrade to 17's. 4 wheel disk brakes,drilled and slotted with Brembo calipers. Note I cant put my wheels on because the rotors are 11.0 inch's. Complete sway bars except for upper rear, because at the time my sub box would have interfered,but now there no rear seat so I will infact purchase one. I lowered it a couple seasons back with a set of ABD springs but have just recently spent the big bucks on some H&R coil overs. Wow what a difference. Im sure there is plenty Ive missed since this car is infact the sole beneficiary of my earnings. What do you think of upgrading the ignition coil to one of those Jacobs electronic ones. As well as have you seen that new 4 point lower stress bar by euro sport and will it interfere with my ABD lower sway bar. I hope you can spend some time to give me some tips and maybe ideas soon. In return I will send you soon enough a fully documented evolution of David Mansolino's A1 GTI. General comments: Please E mail me.

Had a '79 rabbit ten years ago and to this day is the most fun car I ever owned, even as a non-GTi. My daily driver is an unmodified '96 Surf green GTi 2.0L and takes a close second to the rabbit. This car has two autox seasons and one road race school on it. Time to retire the daily driver, so when I saw the Rabbit GTi at the Junkyard I couldn't let it go to the "CRUSHER" so I worked out a deal with the guys there and now I have a car I'm sure will be even more fun than my first rabbit 'cause this one will be properly equipped and have more power.

It is carburated by 4*45 mm Weber carburators. I think it is about as fast as a atmosferical Engine can become. General comments: I was really interrested by your turbo-conversion story, i been meaning to build that for years, but i wanted to use a Turbocharger and exhaustmanifold of a GTD 1.6 turbodiesel and a programmable race injection system. What do you think, is the fuel-enrichementmanour that you use enough? It is a lot cheaper off course. What do you mean with the microfueler you mentioned, is it a sort of programmable ECU or what is it.

Rear discs are in, 2" exhaust is in, tunes are pumpin and the 2way sunroof is open. A '90 cabrio gauge cluster and Audi coupe auxiliary gauges tell me wuz up. Soon to do: 5 spd, much needed big brakes, black interior, fuel injection for sure!! (G60?????)
