CQ/7A turbo conversion questions

[Denis]

  Mmmmm, i tought too it s not so easy to get a rear 20V turbo engine ;-),
was too simple.
  thks for info
  Anthony.
  I think to get a 20V 90Q for my V8 swap. And put the head on my 100Q 2.3
block, 100Q is quite anemic.

  The only problem with the NA engines is no oil squiters under the pistons
  and cast pistons, So watch the boost levels. The exception is any of the 4
  valve per cylinder VAG engines.

    Use a 2.3 NA block with your head.
    You ll get 8.1 approx CR.
    Use k24 from S4

    Thre is the best place and cheapest i foung for SS tubes to make

    Call intended acceleration for some pics about he did good one, for some
  good tricks to make one.

    Ask to Jim here and Javad. One did with a T03 flange and Jim with a
  k24,k26 flange.

    You can also get a Autocad draw of the SS flanges. (i heve it but i need
  to search, i m in lunch right now ;-)   )

    You can use the new the Megasquirt AVR (VEMS:Versatile Engine Management
  Systems) or Megasquirt , the Ultra coming soon   , much cheaper than
others
  but it need to adjust parameters and it s not a plug and play system, but
  very versatil.

    The Javad unit is a very good one, almost plug and play and dictated for
5
  cylinders.
    Go see 034 site, Nates and Javad are posting much of time there now..
