Since there are a lot of new 16v turbo projects being built/rebuilt and some new parts coming out it's time for another ultimate 16vt info thread (archived?). The point of this thread is to compare setups and offer advice / information.Chassis: mk2 gti

No dyno before trans broke (3rd gear), went 12.9@115 on 17psi couldn't boost until 3rd gear without spinning and going nowhere (195 tires and .48 hotside).
Idles sometimes, currently has no o2 sensor. Wideband gauge between 12.7 and 11.5 under boost.
Looking to go standalone, 35R or 3076, cams in the future.

What is your opinion on boosting over the 1 bar digi 1 map sensor? I watched the o2 like a hawk at 17psi and it was all good.

Your oil cooler is mounted incorrectly. Just an FYI. Fittings should come out the top, or side, with the feed being on top (in stand up configuration).great numbers.

Lots of typical modsOnce the tranny and clutch go in, I am ditching the scirocco manifold, intercooler, and pipes. gonna pipe directly into the top of a stock 16v manifold and run WAI, as well as 20psi. Thoughts?

we were testing some chips for Danny (John Watts), as far as i can tell he made it so that anything over 14psi would go to a pre-set reading that just ran rich, all we had to do was turn the boost up on race gas until it felt "good"
keep in mind that widebands were still a bit expensive in 2004.

Quote, originally posted by 16v_HOR » wow, nice numbers for a stock 9a block! How many miles on this setup thus far?
Thanks, It's seen about 5000 miles in total, started off @ around 12psi, it's seen 4000+ miles of 18+psi(310+whp), Lot's of hard driving and 200+km/h pulls, about 20 passes @ the track, etc. It's all in the tune, but I'm not expecting it to last forever. It's getting bigger injectors and more boost soon and probably some water/meth injection.
400whp was @ 23psi
