WJ engine transplant

lefthooker · 24-04-13, 09:43 AM

I' ve got a low mileage WJ engine out of a type 43 200 5T which has been sat around for years and I'm thinking of putting it into a coupe quattro.

There are some things I need to know before attempting to put it in:

1. Should I use a ur or coupe flywheel bearing in mind there are no crank sensors on this set up.

2. Where do the pipes off the twin vacuum dizzy run to.

3. Is there any advantage in running with a wr intercooler.

4. Is there anyway of tweaking the engine to give a little more power.

Thanks,

David

Youll need the airflow meter from the 200T.

1) Use the lightest flywheel you can get as stock, im using a 1B version from a 200 turbo on the Ur.

2) 1 of those pipes ( the side on the domed part of the capsule is a vacuum advance the others a retard connection to wind back the ignition advance under boost.

3) Yes.

4) Probably an Ur cam off a WR and mods to the boost pressure will give it a kick up the pants.

Thanks for your help

All seems quite straightforward.

I've got the airflow meter, a wr camshaft, an intercooler and a wr flywheel. Just need to get a turbo overhauled seeing as I pinched the one off this for a ur. I used AET years ago for an overhauled unit but I'm not sure who else specialises in KKK these days?
