Quantum TD manifolds
Manifold and turbo arrangement as used in VW longitudal engine
installations (e.g. Quantum, Audi...). This arrangement also
reportedly fits into the Vanagon without any engine mount
modifications.
More detailed view also includes mounting brackets and hoses. Brent's description of how to put a turbo on a naturally aspirated diesel in the VW vanagon. Another description, by G. Lee Bob Bellanca swapped in a 1.9l TD engine in his Vanagon Westy. Martin Schulte has put a 1,9 Liter TDI Motor in his Vanagon Martin's WWW site is in German. I made a short writeup in English of TD and TDI swaps. Pictures of the TD engine I'm putting into my Westy. |
Golf and Jetta TD manifolds
Manifold and turbo arrangement as used in VW transverse engine
installations (e.g. Jetta, Golf...).

Jetta installation
The same engine as installed in a Jetta '91 Eco Diesel. The Eco
diesel has the turbocharger, but the injection pump lacks the
boost pressure aneroid used in the regular TD. Instead maximum
fuel delivery has been tuned down to stay below smoke levels
at low boost.
The intake and exhaust is to the right in the picture, between the valve cover and the firewall. The turbo is occluded behind the brownish exhaust downpipe. |
