Turbo Technics 1.9

Recommended Posts

johnrobertgordon

I had palnned to use a 1.6 box, clutch and driveshafts. Bt i have been told that the 1.6 box is going to be a little short. Also there is strength issues with the 1.6 shafts and clutch.

Has any one here runa 1.9 TT with 1.6 running gear?

Your engine will be coming with an mi16 f/wheel so use that with an mi16 clutch.

It will struggle for grip with a 1.9 box so id imagine a 1.6 item will be dreadful. Really need a LSD aswell. Mi16 Flywheel is a good option, allows you upgrade to standalone management when required. 1.6 hubs will also limit your brake choices, which will need uprating.

I think he wants to know what gearbox, ratios, driveshafts etc to use.

I was referring to Danpugs post - bit of delay I'm afraid. Yeah, as I said earlier, 1.9 parts at least as it'll still spin up with those gear ratios in 1st/2nd and 3rd

Just ask Henry Yorke how bad his turbo is with a 1.6 gearbox.

 

Definately 1.9 stuff all the way.
