2309cc 20valve turbo ?

not worth it imo.

boost pressure will be a good enough replacement for4 less than 100cc.

keep things simple and on the tried and tested to get a good working solution.

if you want something different try with a 16v. save some weight over the front wheels and make the same power for less.

id envisage lots of custom parts making it cost more than a tdi stroker.

To get 2309 on the turbo 20v engine you'd need to get custom pistons of 82.5mm and a block rebore. I've heard rumours there are off the shelf golf pistons that would also work.

Ask flat on my back.

if it's a 2309cc 7A NA engine your trying to use then the compression ratio of the pistons is wrong AFAIK so cant be used

seeing as the cost of good parts for a 2.5 conversion are expensive & a little hard to come by, I was just wondering if any parts from a 2.309 cc engine could be used in a 20vt build to give a little more displacement?

my thinking is that 2309 cc engines are more common, and maybe performance items for such a conversion would be cheaper. ?


I know, I know... your first answer will be WHY? but I guess I just like the idea of running an engine that is a little 'different' to the typical 'bolt in and go' 20vt conversion.

What parts from 2309cc engines can be used? if any. & are there performance versions of such parts available to buy for that displacement?

cheers. gaz.
