!!!audi s2 nothelle for sale!!!!

[Jamo]

yep i read through some threads and i think no one really knows what the turbo is!I think when it was a mrc doug said it was a rs2 turbo with smaller fins??Or something had been changed/same with the manifold which in the conversion staes rs2 manifold with parts welded in.At the moment the car is only running stock bhp since having a new ecu earlier this year and i was hoping to get it back to mrc for a remapp.But looks like all my savings will be going towards the rebuild!So what pistons/rods/shells should i be looking at using in the rebuild and wheres the best place to get them from!As ross said it will be worth it in the end!although this subaru is beginning to wear on me!suprised a few other drivers on the road with it,but its still not a stratch on the s2!

Hi Dean,

There is a thread as Eric who has a Nothelle conversion had his turbo reconned at AET and they provided all the turbo component numbers, (i can't find it though )

I have some good standard rods you can have £50 + P&P if you just want to put it back together. If not i would personally go for Pauter rods, never heard of anyone having problems.

yea thanks jamo i remember reading the thread once but could never find it again!i think in the reciepts for the conversion their is a breakdown with the spec of the turbo/manifold/mapping.Think im gonna just leave the rods/pistons/ standard,but is it possible to uprate the shells as these are the parts that have broken,and maybe will let me down again!are the rs2 shells any differents?

I fitted the RS2 shells I think - anyhow, I think it's only the RS2 shells they provide. I'm sure someone can provide the part numbers (theres 2 and you need 5 of each, about £80 for all 10).

RS2 and ABY are the same IIRC, should be in the pics i posted in your 400 project thread.

[nothelle300]

is that for the top end shells?Or for bottom end and the rs2 shells would be stronger than the standard shells?Just i think if i fitted bigger intercooler/injectors the car should be good for 380bhp'ish once its had a decent remapp(MRC!!!)

[Ross]

Sorry that's the bottom end shells, you're looking for the top end right? I always thought they were considered invincible...

[nothelle300]

yep its the top end shells which have gone!Guessing their not invinsible anymore.But if i replace them with rs2 shells these should be strong enough to take it to 400bhp?
