  • When building a big turbo 1.8t from a VW/Audi there are lots of different variations, but does it really matter? So which 1.8t is the right one to build?

    The AEB has a cast crank, Agu, bam, apy, aum, amk, bjx, Bex all are forged cranks but there are mush more forged. Aeb and Agu are big port. But on my bam small port head I could easily make 500hp. I also went to stainless steel exzhost valves. Stock pistons are very strong.

    Awesome video !! What would be the 1.8T engine to go if, like in my case, you want to upgrade from a 1.4TSI (CAXA) exchange-wise? Are there parts I can use from my CAXA to build on the 1.8T? Is there a better fit for a 20V compared to a 16V? I know the airco compressor can be re-used. The power I have in mind is just what's achievable with a good reflash of the chip, as it's a road car and I want reliability.

    Awesome video guys!
    One note for anyone that is curious. with an aeb block if you go with forged rods you need to grind down a small portion of the inside of the block(intake side) to clear the cylinder 2 rod. If you go with a aba crank in an aeb block you need to remove about 60% of the intermediate shaft gear in order to clear cylinder 4 rod. I have pictures and measurements if anyone needs them.

    I have a stroker 1.8t (2008cc). I wanted to drive it and didn't have the time or money at the time to build out the head. It has a EFR 6258 turbo. Is it worth me poking around and finding an aeb head if I'm gonna build one? I'm thinking about buying another head and having it built and ready so I can hopefully swap everything relatively quickly. Do you guys have certain brands you feel make pretty good valvetrain products, or are most of the common brands pretty decent

    What exhaust valves are better than stock and not $1000 for a set? Currently building a 1.8T with a goal of 350-400whp but more is definitely welcome. Capable of 8000rpm "safely" so springs are a must but I really want this to be a cheap dirty rebuild. Don't judge me! Nothing is going to a machine shop, it's getting a ball hone and new bearings, rods, springs and apparently exhaust valve. Again don't judge me, I have kids and I'm broke!

    VVT or No VVT
    Valve guide angles? Which?
    Oversized valves? Which ones? Exhaust? Intake? Both?
    How big do I need to go on the turbo for the 750hp? G30-900?

    On the subject of pistons. I'm assuming new OEM pistons with aftermarket rods would be more advisable than using the old pistons out of my 205k mile engine. And on that same note, would you advise just trying to find the 20mm wrist pin pistons since the aftermarket rods are easier to find in that size? My old MK4 is tired and i want to show it some love after 6 and a half years of service.

      You can reuse the pistons out of your motor as long as they are not damaged. (I.e. valves never made contact). If you have the smaller wrist pins and want upgrade to 20mil wrist pins, then yes, get new pistons

      To many variables.
      Small port is good up to 450bhp but even then people have used a small port over 600bhp
      The real difference will be small port flows better down low in the revs due to port velocity
      The large port flows better up high revs due to port size and volume over the small port

    This is very difficult topic, essentially all 20vt are the same but very different when you start comparing engine codes. You should consider engine code when you are going to run stock ECU because thats were the biggest difference is. Some come with narrowband, some with wideband, cable throttle, drive by wire etc etc. Proven combination for low budget sub 500hp is 225hp(if you have later model 150 or 180 with me7.5 just buy a second hand 20mm wristpins pistons) to start with because it has the 20mm wristpin, me7.5 ECU. Buy a set of rods and exhaust valves and thats about it. Turbo choises are endless, very good solution for turbo is a k04-064 from next gen S3 with adapter plate that will give you about 400hp with spool from 2500rpm.

Rods are a must as well as exhaust valves. Also, you will need a minimum of 630cc injectors, bosch 044, or equivalent fuel pump and decent size bar and plate intercooler with at least 2.5" pipework to go with it, 3" downpipe with ideally 3" catback system and a very good tuner who could make work of the hardware on the stock me7.5 ecu.
