Volvo K24 turbo in audi application.

Hi,

do you mean the 56mm exducer version?

Thanks,Peter

Wasn't 56mm exducer on the K26 #8? If it is, then my logic would say it should be smaller.
Then again, perhaps it'd be easier just to measure, because I might be wrong about the K26 #8 size.

A source here:
http://www.924board.org/viewtopic.php?t=15595

Suggests that the minor bore of the K26 #6 is 48mm and the minor bore of the K26 #8 is 55mm.

K26 #6 hotside. Fits like a glove, very tight.
As for the coldside, the easiest is to just cut and re-weld the exit. It's much cheaper and easier than other solutions.

These results are not real world results as they are taken one cylinder at a time not all cylinders being measured at the same time which is what happens in an engine condition, therefore take them as a marker only

seeing these pictures we are lucky with 3B intake manifolds

i believe to heard in the past something similar that the 3B intake flows better than ABY/RS2

Do you intend to do 3b stuff?

I am afraid not.
I'll make the chipset on my own car, and that'll be ADU spec ECU.

I'll make some chips specifically for this as well, and I'll give them to Paul, etc...

@Ruffiano

Make a log so we can also import it here and compare the dyno results with this tool.

Did the same person who did these get to do a Wagner front inlet manifold ?

Rather than a ' hack and bolt on', what could be done to sort the aethetics of this ugly thing out? I see you've fitted the K26 hotside there - what hotside is that, where was it sourced? Do we think it would be possible to have a coldside machined to fit that looks/fits stock?

This is a little bit unexpected... I would be interested to see an overlay with RS2 power as well; not so much for spool comparison - if it's pretty much K24 that is amazing - but for torque and power in the top half of the power band.

I'm trying to see how this could be used as a basis for a drop-in replacement on an RS2 to give 'the best of both worlds'...

I'll be in the Vegas-SLC area for 10 days early May, if it happens to coincinde with any more trips up there I would love to see this thing in the flesh

Here is how i see it. you can buy the turbo for half the cost of an rs2 unit (brand new), it bolts right in so no need for custom exhaust manifolds or downpipes, it runs with all the stock oil and water lines, and it makes just as much if not more power then the rs2 turbo and it makes that power sooner. In my book it is a no brainer.

It is nearly worse than the 7a

Remember, we have a very small sample size right now.
I'll map mine as well within a month and see what it makes.

Prj,

Sorry, I forgot to include the 3" exhaust in the list of items that would be good to do on any ABY.
