Weelll... All things being equal, it shouldn't be too hard as the 5pot was used as a TDi in the Caravelle and 100...

There will of course be the odd teething troubles, but....

Forget about that. This is the last 5 cyl diesel engine that may be used there.

The real thing is 2.5 TDI AEL or AAT from C4, not vw.

But what he can do if he likes clouds of black smoke and sound of a tractor under the bonnet coupled with coupe or quattro sedan, what wasn't aviable with diesel?

I have heared about B3q 1.6D

, B3q 1.9 TDI, Audi V8 with either 1.9 TDI or 2.5 TDI

, Audi 200 TDI and so on

I've been experimenting with a development propulsion process I'm amazed no one else has thought of, it's a crossover engine between Electric power, Forced Induction and the jet engine. I'm guessing I'll get about 60mpg out of it when fully developed. Likewise performance should be superb, with it spinning to some 22,000rpm.

Emissions wise, it'll be completey clean, with nothing but hot air.. (A bit like this post really).

Anyway, I wonder if you could put your combined superb engineering minds together and help me out, I have the basic instillation fitted however I'm now strugging with the brake servo and maintianing pressure when running on full heat. This appears mainly due to the excess load caused by peroxide build up.

Anyway, have a look and let me know whether I've missed something simple from the whole process..

Yours, in anticipation...

perhaps a stand alone ecu may be order of the day oh and you need a T35 turbine in that housing as well

if you use JP7 fuel like the SR71 then it has its own cooling properties as well which is handy concidering the performance your aiming to achieve
