That is a turbo with a VR6 attached to it and not the other way around :D

@jeremywhittler8591 6 лет назад

LazyRock That's not a big turbo. When you hit the firewall with your turbo must be a Borg Warner 😉

I am now going to bolt said VR6 in to the car!!!

You are incredibly meticulous! I really like that. I look forward to these updates. I'm not a fan of "old" cars but if I was gonna have one, this is exactly how I'd want it done. Awesome work. I'm looking forward to seeing the first drive post Dyno etc. 👍🏽👍🏽

@jeffk464 7 лет назад

I don't know, seems like that engine deserves MQB

@blower1 7 лет назад

Wookie wookie! Love these updates, and i'm with you with not changing too many things at once, it can make troubleshooting a nightmare!

@fpvr.6338 7 лет назад

Looking glorious. I just finished rebuilding a Corrado g60 and am ironing out the final kinks. Your videos make me jealous on how clean an engine really can look!

@jeremywhittler8591 6 лет назад

You can print N/A cam and turbo Dyno charts and over-lay them. If you pick a certain turbocharger watch for where the curve peaks. Match your cam selection to this peak and the parts will work together. You can gain between 40 and 100 HP with a cam and an SRI.(268 and below is good to maintain vacuum for A/C and power brakes)

@pdpablovega2912 7 лет назад

So fresh and so clean

@upsidedowndog1256 7 лет назад

While the architecture of the VR6 seems strange, its all the same stuff as any engine. Nice job. It is rare not to have to reindex turbos. Removing turbine and compressor housings can aid in installation.

@TheRebuilt1 7 лет назад

With that turbo I think 300WHP is real conservative. Not sure what the trim for this turbo but VR6's and Turbo's are made for each other.

@beardedninja8717 7 лет назад

Watching this while in between on my b5 s4. Need to bleed the slave cylinder today. It's safe to assume it's as much a pia as everything else on my car haha. But hey I live VAG life.

@NoahKuzel 7 лет назад

It has been said that if putting an engine together is a 1000 piece jig saw puzzle, then putting pia transmission together (especially an automatic) is a 1,000,000 piece jig saw puzzle. So I can understand just putting the transmission on, just for the sake of getting it on the road and then going back to it. I don't know jack about VW's, however having seen the exploded view and also the parts list on a transmission that goes on the Ford F-150/Expedition/Crown Victoria, it is a lot; and for that reason transmissions often get overlooked or only a few people actually specialize in transmission work.

@ShainAndrews 7 лет назад

Copper head gasket or copper spray? Have not been following the build so my apologies if it was covered before. I'll work my way through your previous material.

@jeremywhittler8591 6 лет назад

Neither. Thats not a problem with the VR engines.

RIP transmission

@jeremywhittler8591 6 лет назад

Your right. ATP makes a 6700$ straight cut gearset , but the casting on an O2J/A is just not up to the task on a big power daily. You can however O2M swap. There are a few problems here, but a built 02M FWD can probably handle 7-900hp.

@Diddy291 5 лет назад

But transmission are bad for VW from 2.0 and up. On my VR6 12 valve Passat B3 fail 2 gear box do to short satellites which some how get out and gear box are no go.

@GradyRho92 7 лет назад

Prob been asked a lot. What power levels are you gonna be at once tuned.

@BillyPoore84 5 лет назад

I plan on doing a vr6 swap in my mk3 this winter! I have future plans to turbo. What do you think the the 12V AAA VR6 stock can handle with boost lbs? I’ve heard 10-11lbs from a couple of people but that seems like a lot for a stock engine. What would you recommend for, I dunno, a meager 8lbs? At this point in my mechanic career (very early), I was planning to do the build myself and then have it towed to a shop for proper tuning of A/F ratio, etc.

@seandeterman2499 7 лет назад

HumbleMechanic Hi, I have a question. I am by no means a turbo know it all, but isn't that a poor placement of that precision wastegate? Will that cause boost control/creep issues due to how the exhaust would have to flow through that exhaust manifold? Btw I'm a huge fan of your channel and I am in no way questioning your abilities or knowledge, I've just always thought that you want to have a wastegate with a better position for flow. Thank you and keep doing what you do!

@HumbleMechanic 7 лет назад

+Sean Determan a great question for sure. The kit was built with this setup. So I'm going to install it as it was designed. After she is running and break in, then we will start playing around with different setups. I don't think this is "the best" way. But I think it's going to be fine.

@boostboys8356 4 года назад

What turbo did you go with?

@Commandurwalrus 7 лет назад

so what kind of power can you get out of these on a big build?

@ryanrohauer5940 7 лет назад

Justin Clark lots of your forge the bottem end 600 to 700 is attainable and with anything else there are people who push like 900

@Commandurwalrus 7 лет назад

Ryan Rohauer thats impressive, whats he going for with this build? Im to lazy to go through all the vids

@ryankelleher2159 5 лет назад

Hello HumbleMechanic! Big fan of your videos, and I'm planning on turbocharging my VR6 (with a considerably smaller turbocharger) and I was wondering what your opinion was on that header, I've been looking around online and it seems to be the only reputable one I can find (for a reasonable price) but I wanted to go with a tubular stainless steel header, any suggestions? Should I just try to find a local fabricator to make one for me?

@HumbleMechanic 5 лет назад

If you want tubular, I think custom is the only road to go down.

@ryankelleher2159 5 лет назад

Thank you!

@TheStwat 7 лет назад

Hi Charles. Were you in the VW dealerships when the MK3 diffs would blow apart? I'd love to know why that kept happening.

@HumbleMechanic 7 лет назад

+TheStwat nah. That was before my time.

@TheStwat 7 лет назад

Do you have any inkling as to why that gearbox and diff were so weak? :-)

@jeremywhittler8591 6 лет назад

Rivet's in the diff shear off

@jacklauwence4549 7 лет назад

Hey good job... I am actually turbo charging My MB W124 CE230, but one question keep buzzing me, where do I get the oil and water feed for the turbo. Since My Turbo is water cooled. I am planing to add a oil plate for cooling between filter and engine, so I guess it will be somewhere around there...

@HumbleMechanic 7 лет назад

As close to the oil filter as possible for the oil feed. That is usually a place you can "T" into. For coolant, use what is the coolest place and the closest place

@jacklauwence4549 7 лет назад

Thank your for you advice. The Plate has in and out for oil radiator ant 2 outlets so I guess this will do. And my Water pump has a second output with a bolt output, strait from the cold side of radiator. Easier than I thought. Thanks for everything and make that VR6 chew the road...

@calm4477 7 лет назад

@IceTrey98c 7 лет назад

@pippadhiety228 3 года назад

gonna keep as much as I can factory? I hate to tell ya this but youve taken the plunge and your on your own as far as how this ends up. keeping something factory and thinking its gonna behave the same as it did before all this is never gonna happen and I think this comes up faster than anyone wants to admit but the only thing reliable about factory parts after changing this much of a car is the way in which they fail. but you will figure this out on your own. its not factory parts or the aftermarket that will make a car like this reliable its how much time you spend with it

@brannon8498 7 лет назад

are you putting an LSD in it?

@kx65fast 7 лет назад

Brannon c4.. an lsd requires splitting the transmission case open on fwd cars.. and he said a trasmission is going in as is to get the car on the road.. my guess would be no..

@petermoger8135 7 лет назад

Brannon c4 that said, an LSD may be in it's future if he's planning to build up the tranny later. One great thing about the Getrag gearbox they stuck in the 02-06 Mini coopers is the fact the LSD is external and doesn't require opening the tranny up. If only everyone else followed suit...
