oh ok, so might be good hard to tell and a bit to big to use maybe,

henry, you said that you can by a garrett version 2nd hand, can you tell me where about, sources?

thanks for the advices guys thats why i ask.

Don't know about the UK but around here we can buy them from company's that sell and restore turbos, and most common i think from buy/sell sections on car forums. Or maybe some truck/lorry scrapper can get you one.

will have a scout around, ive been looking for some siemens 680cc injectors, whats the difference between high impatence and low impatence injectors? and which is best for turbos?

this is a 4x4 2.9, how much hp can the gearbox diffs and drive shafts take before bang?

"What are the differences between low impedance/peak & hold and high impedance/saturated injectors?

Low impedance injectors (1.5 to 4.0 Ohm) have a faster trigger times due to the type of electrical signal pattern emitted by the ECU. This “Peak and Hold” pattern uses a high (6 amp) initial current pulse to open the injector, and then a lower current signal to keep the injector open. Since the “hold” or lower current part of the signal has created a weaker magnetic field, the injector will also close quicker.

High impedance injectors (10 to 16 Ohm) are triggered by a low (1 amp) constant current signal and kept open by the same constant (saturated) current for the entire cycle. Due to the lower current needed, less heat is generated during each cycle allowing the injector to stay cool and therefore increase its reliability. The down side is that the trigger time is decreased since there is less of an initial current to actuate (open) the injector.

Most OEM injectors are saturated injectors since car manufacturers are most interested in reliability."

But you need a ecu that can handle low impedance well to gain on it.

which type of injectors did you use on your capri? and can megasquirt handle both?

thanks for the explaination.

440cc high impedance. Megasquirt can handle low impedance but it can be a problem. I always recomend high impedance

thanks mikael

these do the job? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/42-Fuel-Injectors-42lb-42-lb-440cc-Ford-Bosch-Siemens-/350385076829?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item519493fa5d

i realise theres 8, no harm having 2 spare

guys what size fuel lines do i need for 2.9? 8 mm?

i also have a 2.9 bob cossie, will 8mm do for that?

Stock will do. But 8mm sure is better.

went for 8mm, waiting for delivery hopefully here soon,

I know you guys do a bmw gearbox with a v6 bellhousing, but i am actually thinking about mounting the engine in the back of my car, i was going to use a chain drive or drive box but i was actually wondering if there is a front wheel drive gearbox that can take 400-460 bhp? and then i could just convert the bellhousing on that to a v6 one too?

oh and if you guys want i can upload some pics of my 2 cars, if u want to see and i can actually figure out how ahah.

thanks

Audi has strong gearboxes, just reweld it

any particular type you know of? 1.8t good enough? or need bigger?

I think the 1.8t gearbox will break for 400bhp. Go for the one that is in the 2.2 turbo version. Upload the pics!

i will try and get the pics uploads, bare in mind they are just my car projects not engine stuff at the momoent anyway.

other thing there isnt a 2.2, there is a 1.8t , 1.9 and 2.0t and does it matter if the gearbox is diesel?

right, any help in how you upload pics would be a great help, cant figure it ouw

Go to tinypic.com and choose your file (picture), then choose resize to "message board" then click "upload now" Then you copy the IMG code for Forums and message boards (second one) and paste it here!

I think that you are talking about gearboxes from an FWD car that is from a newer Audi that is probebly alot weaker. And Mikael and Grey are talking about an Audi gearbox from a Audi quattro. Gearboxes from the quattro versions is very common on rearmounted midengine builds.

hmmmm need a faster way of doing this can i not add all my pics some how? got loads n this is going to take ages.

and quattro gearboxs are to expensive really

these pics are all how i got my race car, the one which im considering a v6 conversion

and this is how it looks now, a lot of body work done. its killed me only finished it 2 days ago ready to get sprayed! hope you all like it!

Looks great!

Doh,
Yeah there is a 2.2 turbo:
2.2L I-5, 200 PS (147 kW; 197 hp), fuel injection, turbo (1988−1990)
2.2L I-5, 220 PS (162 kW; 217 hp), 20-valve turbo Quattro 20V (1989−1991)

For example the one in Audi 200, S2, S4, S6 and so on (5 Cylinder turbo).
