Engine Swap
Im constanty hearing people going on about turbo cars, Turbo engines, Turbo Conversions etc, i really dont get it. Ive never been a fan of turbo cars (bolt on power). Much prefer the constant power of a V6, V8 or even a V10 (Audi RS6 AVT). Was wondering has anyone ever put the V6 out a ZS in a ZR or even the V8 out a ZT in a ZS ?
|
The audi RS6 is twin turbo
and Ive never saw a v6 In a zr Seen V8's in mk1 focus's and there's a few v6 mk3 astra's rolling around Not much point to dropping a KV6 lump in a ZR when theres so many ZR Turbos |
v6 into zr has been done, v6 into Rover coupe is in progress, zt v8 into a zs, who'd put that boat anchor in the front of a zs lol

I stand corrected that ZR's really smart Its abit of a sleeper

Slightly concerned about this as im constantly seening Audi develop 1.2 and 1.4 turbo A3's. On My Audi Desktop this morning i seen Spy Shots of an A4 1.6T. Which in my opinion is far to small an engine for that size and weight of car. Just my opinion |
can make smaller turbo engines more effiecent and faster than a larger engine these days, new focus has the 1.0 turbo that is the equivelant of the 1.6, and driving it, it is just like driving a 1.6, new st is a 2.0litre direct injection turbo but is putting out more power than the old 2.5l turbo in the last st
basically manufacturer wise its all about emmisions these days and its harder to keep the emmisions down on big n/a engines, and get good fuel effiecency as well, |
I see what you mean I think we'll see allot more bi-turbo cars
I doubt the sort of people that drive audi's would want to be driving a 1.6's though even if its a turbo. |
deep down i know that to be the case. But i still dont like hearing it. Thankfully i work for the right company being a fan of V cars, all though we do have our fair share of turbos as well.
