Hi guys, as the title says, I am preparing a 1.5 tsi to mount a big turbo.
I am Spanish from Spain.
My English is very bad, so I will use google translator.
I like your community and I have read many preparations in this forum (1.8 and 2.0 +is20 and +is38) that have helped me to decide and I want to share my project with all of you.
My car is a Ateca 1.5 Tsi 150hp and I currently have a custom tune and downpipe decat 2.5" getting 198hp and 335nm of torque.
I didn't want a hybrid turbo, so the new turbo has to be adapted.
Because the exhaust manifold is integrated into the cylinder head and the intake to the exhaust turbine is different than any other vag engine.
What you have to do is cut the intake of the exhaust gas turbine of the new turbo and weld a steel plate in the shape of the exhaust manifold gasket to fit everything as oem.
Adapt the air intake pipes, adapt the pipe that goes from the compressor shell to the watercooler and little else.
what do you think?
