Getting Exhaust done (and turbo discussions)

[GoLfMan]

Any ideas for a type of muffler for this ass end?

chop it right out!

dont run a muffler at all, just a resenator will do you just fine

OP - most of what has been mentioned so far in this thread has already beend discussed at length in other threads in the diesels section - look deeper into this section and you'll find a couple of "build threads" and some other threads on diesel exhausts.

no worries - just saves you some time in the end - its easier to find old threads than wait for good responses

to josh, and polo_spec_d, and anyone else in the know- how many nm are the clutches in our polo tdi's rated to?

i simply ask because on the club, basic stage 1 mods seem to be (in one package, before uprating turbo to gt17XX):

-nozzles
-remap
-clutch

and uprated smic or other oem fmic come with bigger turbo, another remap, etc etc.

how long you guys give our clutches at 315-325nm?

and in terms of remaps, apparently the KP39 in the golf 4 diesel is slightly smaller than the vnt15's in ours- but one guy on the club had a rocketchip stage one tune done, and was told not to play ALL the time, as he was near the limits of how much boost the turbo could take- would oettinger do the same to the vnt 15 as a similar tune to a slightly smaller turbo? or are we fine?

thoughts guys!!!

cheers....

p.s. please correct me here if im wrong, as i also read somewhere that the polo tdi has a KKK turbo and not a garrett...

[peedman]

I thought all the VNT turbos were garrett??

[Buller_Scott]

so did i, but i also saw a list stating that the 100ps 1.9 pd engine in the >2005 polo was a KKK turbo.

i really should take these websites' urls down...

Well im going to 320Nm next week and a new clutch will be on the cards not long after that due to the amount of kms I rack up.

I have read that our clutches are good for 420nm!!!! But im abit suss about that so if someone has a back up figure to that?

I would think we should be fine with the remap, is the PD130 running a larger turbo or same one as PD100?

Sorry Scott to answer your question with another question.
