205 V6 Turbo

[charlesV6 0]

well this project was nearly over before it started,the car was stolen the same night i bought it.luckily managed to find the car abit some damage.so if any one local to newcastle has a spare steering collum and lockset they would like to sell please let me no. This will be my second attempt at a 205 v6 turbo,first time round could not get it running properly.

I seen a cheap 205 for sale. ,so i thought would give it another go, as the 1.9 engine just doesnt have enough grunt when your used to v6 power in a 205 .

here is a pic of my old turbo v6.will add more pics later of my old turbo and of my new project.

why stop at one turbo?

will it not be very front end heavy?

[custard-rallye 25]

Surely adding a turbo won't affect handling that much can't add that much more weight

[charlesV6 0]

yes front end is heavy but still handles good. as you will see in pics there is only enough room for one turbo and had to put it were battery goes.

heres a few pics of old turbo and my 306 v6

Was it fast? Did you get a rr print?

I saw this for sale on eBay ages ago. What made you sell it and start another one?

[charlesV6 0]

not as fast as it should of been,was down on power,felt like exhaust was blocked as when it was getting into higher revs it felt flat .

sold it cause a just lost interest in it ,got sick of fixin it basically

[custard-rallye 25]

should be a monster if you get this one right

The 406 coupe rims look good on the 306!!

 

To keep a V6 on boost, you need a serious turbo (or 2). What spec turbo did you use? Looks like KKK from an Audi.

Imho a 306 suits the V6 better than the 205, but impressive that you just build it with a turbo!

 

Tbh I'm not really a fan of external IC's. No space to use a chargecooler?

Ive thought about doing this many of times but just havnt had the money of effort level, good on you for doing it, would of been good to get it mapped properly see what was going on

Looks like a cracking pair of cars! Fairplay and good luck! What size tyres did you run with the 406 wheels on the 306?

Are you running the single turbo off just one exhaust bank? maybe why it was running poor

Nice project, I enjoy a healthy engine swap.

 

Are you lowering the compression ratio or other internal work to do these conversions, and how are you correcting the fueling??
