Originals are Siemens, recalled and current ones are Continental. Both of then are shit, but Continentals are not going short to ground.

Nálam nem volt szükség rá.

@ Köszi szépen! Jó nagy szopáson mentél keresztül basszus de kitartó voltál :D Nekem Touran BKD van. Most lesz rá egyedi leömlő stb., de ilyen mélyen nem nyúlunk bele, marad a gyári turbó.

@@marton0328 ne is 😂 a bkd-n gyárilag kisebb fék van, arra lehet hogy nem olyan egyszerű felrakni az S3 nyerget. Passsz

Hi, up until 250+ HP should be fine, if you feel slippage, you upgrade the cluth if neccessary, it wont brake. 170 turbo is not that great and not fit stabdard to 140, go for a hybrid, much better choice for your car.

@ thanks for your response, i thought it would fit. i dont know if a hybrid is in my budget, dont know if its worth to spend so much on only a fwd car, if it was quattro, then i would have no hesitation. thanks a lot for the valuable information.

I have many things to take care, but the AMC head is so strong compared to any stock head.... cannot recommend enough. If your injectors, turbo oil feed (oil pump) and drains are good, there is not much to fear from. For sure you need a good tune, without any excessive EMAP or EGT you are good to go. If you exceed your clutch's capability, it will slip, but nothing serious. The whole story depends on how much power you request and from where (rpm).

@ Thanks for you reply bro! I'm aiming for about 250hp nothing more . I just found out that my block is cracked even though it is fully stock (and it is the 2007 model too, c revision) so after watching your video I though it will be a good idea to get them upgrades done. Mine is the dsg and I will get service done on as soon as I upgrade to turbo.

We learned a lot during the jouney 😁 its not a professional build as anyone can tell. It was more like a discovery for my hunger to understand more about cars. I had many issues with dumb mechanics, but this was unavoidable since the budget was never high. Ferodo Ds2500 pads does not reqires many heat to produce more than enough friction. It's an entry level race pad. The LUK uprated clutch pack only slipped around 60-70k kms. Sachs SRE pack is 3x more expensive even with organic friction msterial. I never launched the cars, so for me it was enough.

No, but you can make any kind of spool with custom remap, based on your smoke preferences. GTD turbos are really good naturally on spool even with 2.0 tdi cars without any smoke. Of course you wont get 2.5 bar boost on 2Krpm but only 2.5 or 2.8K

Hi, It is a premium carbon keyfob cover.

Hi, only the amc is a feasible option if you plan for long on these engines. I had 2x C heads cracked. That A-B-C story is bullshit, all factory heads are weak due to wrong alloy. Some are better some worse, I only met with the bad ones. It takes too much money and hassle to try several refurbished heads imo.

Hi, yes. At this point, it only had a remap.

Hi sure, but not too often. Since AMC no issues at all with the head. The main reason is the original inlet had the flaps, which are possible to fell off and kill the engine. On top, due to the shaft design inside the inlet , there is a very common boost leak. These are the reasons I have changed.

@ Many thanks for your response. If I understand correctly, the boost leak was worse with the standard BMN intake and better with the BKD intake? sry for the bad english. Greetings from Germany

@@thorstens.4475 no worries. Yes, the BKD intake is much safer, and the way to go! If you can, change it. But you also need different lenght bolts (screws) .

To fuel the VAG as a corp. If you need to change it, you should buy used bkd alloy inlet + bkd screws. Cheap and much safer.

No, maybe it is the place, or the gauge itself. I'm not happy with that. I use the original factory egt sensor for logging instead of this aftermarket.

@ I found a high temperature difference .... I want to eliminate the original EGT sensor placed in the center of the manifolds and insert the aftermarket one there

@@dj8simo6 yes could be a solution, but you wont be able to log the egt with time sync. If egt is your only "enemy" in your tune then it is nice to have live data when you floor.

@ hi, I have installed the egt probe correctly in the center of the manifold and it works well ... could you tell me which oil radiator you have mounted? and which sandwich?

@@dj8simo6 hi, thats sounds good. I still have issues:( but i do not bother to relocate. I bought the darkside development thermostatic oil cooler kit for mk5 tdi platform, what i cannot find now in the webshop.

Hello! Thanks I'm fine. I Still tinkering the car, but with very limited time. Cuz it's a project car :) :) you know, never ready....

Hi, I'm using LUK uprated, for this car (bmn) works pretty good. Recently changed the whole DMF +clutch+ pressure plate. It just started slipping after 80K km. But I dont feel the need to use Sachs sre performance.

Hi Josh, when I bougth the car, it was replaced with LUK strenghtened kit (which is far from Sachs SRE performance price ) including dual mass. It was okay for 70K km. Ramping up from ~200 to ~280hp. I use the car with a map around 250hp and less then 500Nm in the last 2 years. 1 month ago the clutch started slipping. The springs weared out. For this 170ppd the LUK kit is reasonably good. I bought another one since I only use the car for 5-7K km yearly now.

Yes, but I was also young almost 7-8 years ago ) i did such manouvers just cause i can :) i enjoyed the car very much.

Hi, the issue with the cracked head is the water in the cylinder - even a little amount, for long period of time will corrode and eat the pd injector nozzle, which will degrade the spray pattern by blocking and damaging 1-2 nozzle holes. Also if there is damage on the surface of the nozzle will give better grip for carbon buildup. I just recently cleaned my injectors, and it is clearly noticeable where I had the water in the past due to cylinder cracks. Those injectors are incredibly expensive...

@ Thanks for the big explanation, I didn't know of it damaging the nozzles. But all is good now and Im looking for turbo upgrade. Can you recommend the 2056 on stock injectors? How much boost and when does it get into full boost with it, is it laggy? I'm thinking of either getting this or 1852/1756 for ~220hp and no lag

@@ddaniel987 GTB2056VZ is great but old, there are better turbos from D series already like GTD1752 from BMW, or 1756, any GTD17-18* hybrids would spool very well, handle a lot of heat, and can achive 230+ HP. I've just installed a GTD2060VK, to replace the old GTB2056. It was on full boost 2.4-2.5 Bars from around 3500-3800ish rpm but that is false sense, since I had the maximum torque. So it is for sure laggier, but you will have already more power before full boost than stock car. More important, that you will need at least 2000-2200rpm to start accel hard, below that you cannot really. But thats also depends on your cam timings... complicated.

But thats the beauty of the tuning , to find the sweet spot for your preferences. Smoky or not smoky spool, EGT temp, IMAP-EMAP ratio...etc. thats a long way to figure out how to do... I'm also expecting good results with this new turbo. Hopefully I'll be able to create new video with better results.

@ Hi again, are you still driving the car? And if so is it still running with the AMC head? Im asking because I just bought the same head as replacement and wondering if it is any better than OEM

Hi, unfortunetly not a straight swap. Feed and return oil fittings are different, and also manifold needs to be customized since oem is cast together with hot side. 2056 cold/hot side also needs to be modified, and smart actuator mount fabrication + actuator arm needs to be swapped to other side to fit pull stlye. 😀 so basically full custom fit. There are some company mostly in UK who ship hybrid kits premade what is known for minimum effort swap with no fabrication.

@ ok is there any bigger turbo that could be straight swapped,maybe 1756?

@@Benko_DieseL Check XMan Turbos Ltd on facebook (Piotr Jablonski). He have plenty of options. It is also worth to check even if you only get ideas. The most brutal is GTB17/58 Hybrid staight swap 250 260hp capable with additional mods elsewhere (clutch, IC, etc. ) Honestly I'm not too familier with hybrids, but those are definetly getting better and better recent years, if not better then OEM turbos from bigger diesels like 2056, 2060 or 2260. So definetly hybrids are as good as genuine ones. Also the bearings and center options are more customizable.

@ am from a poor country bro,just asking for a budget turbo that doesnt need much modifications but gives better power

@@Benko_DieseL if i can give you one advice, dont even start modifying. Stage 1 remap and stop there :) save money to buy other joys. It is not feasible to modding a 170ppd . I spend on mine 1000-1500€ yearly and using only 5k km. I should have bought an s3 twice... or 8J S3.... You will pay money for all the mistakes mechanics will do....

Hello Krzysztof, many thanks, I wish all the best to you as well. I only use this car alone for 2-5000 km/year so not much. I agree, so I only buy premium stuff, like Michelin Pilot Sport 4S 235/35 R19 91Y XL and big ATE discs + Ferodo pads. I dont want to compromise safety. Old GTB2056vk turbo size Comp Inducer:41.5mm Comp Exducer:56mm Turbine Inducer:50mm Turbine Exducer:43mm. Last week I changed to GTD2060VZ which is newer and bigger everywhere. I need to check the exact size, cuz I havent measured.

GTD2060VZ Comp 42.84/60.01mm also turbine exducer should be a little bigger compared to GTB because of the generation change, but not 100% sure. I cannot find on the net.

@ Hi David , many thx 4 Your reply , still thers some stuff really want to ask, cannot find any of those infos in comment , tell Me plz , this new turbo exhoust manifold , did they change size of pipes in it (like CNC machinered)GTB - B like berings/ceramic? and new turbo GTD is the D standing for ,,Dual Passage Bypas'' - ported shroud? what about head and gasket and pistions, just small kis or hard all in rebuild in head , valves and ports (what kind of inlet port design You got there)did You bore pistions ? really happy and exicetd to hear it from You , z pozdrowieniami Krzyhu

Hello, it is quite common, I used the following : 0281006059

Hi Boss :) , Before you do such comments, please investigate more. At that time, the car had 2,4 - 2,5 boost (in terms of injection quantity/stroke) reasonably good lambda readings which means it was not lean, and we not only boosted with air, but also with fuel. The injection durations was quite high to get this power which is commonly known for PPD's. Since I used that car very often in that time, i had to be carefully ramp up with EMAP and EGT. There is a few individulas who can really custom remap this ECU, Good luck to find them with yours. Additionally I suppose you have an FWD, which is a completly different animal than mine which is awd. On top, eyeball dyno professionals are all over youtube, seems like you are part of them. The power has been measured with PerfExpert. If you would check my other videos like 0-100 at around 6.5-6,8 with my very very gentle start, you would know that 250-280 is totally realistic for a heavy awd a3. If you would not be aware stock is 7.9sec. So if someone with bigger balls wouold launch this car, could achieve short 6sec 0-100. Have a nice trolling day :)

Yes it is stock. There is no upgraded PPD injectors available. (Apart from Darkside's development set, which did not met the expectations. Based on Jamie Kilner's extended tests. )

Szia 1756 hybriddel simán megvalósítható.

Thanks, But if I would have a chance to restart this project, I would go for S3-RS3 in the first place. :D

Hi, you need to use custom made oil feed and return hoses. Should not be any problem.

It depends on year mostly. Mine is 2004. Started to lose cooland 2 years ago. From 06 no worryes with cooland/cylinder heads. Mine is with hybrid turbo after fault of the oem one. The effect is psycho.

@@baihuifulltiltfishing mine is 07, now has 195.000 miles on. Still original clutch turbo. Had zero issues, brilliant car.

Then your cylinder head number is allmost certainly C. So no worryes with that. But with map with/without new turbo cluch and flywheel will say goodbye for shure. Anyway, its really nive car to have and drive

I also had the C version for my car, but it has cracked.... there was slight revision, but the material itself is the issue. The only Cylinderhead which is bulletproof is the AMC. Sooner or later all the 16valve oem will fail. Especially with increased heat and pressure which is unavoidable with tuning.

@ now at 212476 miles I’m gunna get it to 1/2 million 🙌🏻🙌🏻

Yes, PPD siemens does't have uprated injectors. I have the Continental ones after the stock Siemens recall change.

Hi Marcus, yes the s3 valance fit, but the original exhaust pipes wont be fully centered. So slightly offset.

Non dica fesserie.😁

HI Buddy, no nothing offended. Many thanks. Cars are not maintenance free we all know. There are better constructions and less good ones. I loved this car by the time I've bought because of cheap power potential. No it is now truth, obviously, but the journey we went through, gave me a lot of technical knowledge. I learnt a lot. That's the part I enjoyed the most. I still use this car for 3-6K km/yearly which is not much, but still there is a lot to take care.

Temp management is very good after Oil cooler + Darkside IC+ Radiator. AMC is the one Goto if you play with 2.0 16v tdi

No stuck clutch trust me.

Uprated clutch pack for sure. Not a Sachs SRE but uprated LUK.

@ What are the options for upgrading a LUK clutch? I have a LUK original system in my BKD.

@@jani00xd What power figures do you have? If standard 140 or remapped to 180-200 HP I would go for a BMN 170HP standard LUK kit. That would take at least 400-450NM fine. No need to have Sachs SRE performance for that torque.

@ I have standard 140hp with a GTD2060VZ fitted. Can't run max boost because of stock nozzles (around 230hp). And torque is limited to around 430Nm. If I go for bigger injectors in future, I would also need to make more than 450Nm... That's why I'm asking. Sachs is perfect, but pricy ;)
