have you compared the tach with vagcom? mine bounces off the limiter at 5250rpm on the gauge but vagcom says its doing 6800rpm via the ecu.. using 5cylinder clocks

Yes, i did a two stage test, perhaps i should do it higher. I did it at idle which was within 40rpm. and i did it at 3k rpm and it was still within about 100 rpm (it was a bit hard to tell and hold the throttle perfectly)
I already had sourced some 1.8t engine brakets since they poped up cheap in europe:

Hi Ruffiano.
Have you found engine brackets that fit 1.8T block and audi 80 V6 mounts bolt on? Could you please share info about those brackets? What car/engine?

Thanks.
Yes, the ADR mounts worth with an 058 1.8t engine.
Dave,
I just had a question regarding a couple of details on your 1.8T conversion.
I am completeing a similar 1.8T conversion in a '90 Audi Coupe Quattro. I used a '93 Audi 90 V6 for a donor for a lot of the needed bits. I have both clusters (5 cyl from the coupe, 6 cyl from the 90). Which cluster did you end up using, and what did it take to get the tach to read properly? Was a tach converter needed to make it work, or would the AEB ecu drive the tach in the cluster directly?
I read that you used the ABA temp sender for the gauge. Did you use the black 4 pin sensor, and use it to signal the ECU and the temp gauge in the cluster?
Thank you for all your help. I am down to the last few details, and just want to make sure I have the correct pieces in place.
