Engine codes

[Cedrick]

Just a question,

I was reading up on 18turbo.com, and it was talking about different engine codes, like AWD, AWP, and AWD. Which one is which? Does anyone know where I can do more reading on this stuff?

Thanx

Re: Engine codes

hehe, I think you mean AWW, AWD and AWP....I believe that AWW was the 150hp K03 car (99.5-2000), AWD was the 150hp K03 sport (2000-2001) and AWP was the 180 hp K03 sport car (2002 +)

Feel free to correct me if I'm not right....anyone....

Re: Engine codes

All i know is AWD is 150 K03, AWP is 180HP K03s, I forget what AWW is..
04's have some screwy code like GHK or something I forget it exactly.

Re: Engine codes

Read the FAQ stickies in the 1.8T forum on Vortex. The above sounds right to me though.

Re: Engine codes

You're all wrong.

AWD = KO3 at 0.6bar boost w/ 55mm dp (2000 and early 2001) Compression 9.5:1 -- 150hp
AWW = KO3sport at 0.6bar boost w/ 50mm dp (mid/late 2001) Compression 9.3:1 -- 150hp
AWP = KO3sport at 0.8bar boost w/ 55mm dp (2002-2003) Compression 9.5:1 -- 180hp

everything you need to know is at the 1.8t FAQ

Re: Engine codes

so when's someone going to put in a K04Sport and get 1.0bar boost compression 9.7:1
that'd be pretty damn fast.. 200+hp?

... is there even a KO4 sport turbo? The KO3 sport is just a KO3/KO4 hybrid. And 1.0 bar boost? That's a common boost when running a chip, but on 9.7 compression? errm, you shouldnt run higher compression with forced induction platforms.

TDI's have twice the compression and are still forced induction

i'm just playing.

simon is right, on gas engines high compression is dangerous if you turbo em.

the k03sport is it k03 compressor k04 turbine? (guess i could look on vortex)

Re: Engine codes

AWD's are a perfect candidate for a turbo upgrade. Only AWD left without one is you Simon. C'mon, bite the bullet. Sell one your Brocks and get one.

I'm going to get myself a KO3 sport this summer and do it in my garage. Unless I get a really really good job I don't see any other turbo going in. I'm a poor college student :(
