clifton 0 Posted November 2, 2006 im thinkin about puttin a 2.0 turbo in the 205, the engine is from a 605, does the engine drop straight in or do the mountings have to be changed and everything? or is there any another engines that people will recommend that are easier to fit? cheers ben Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

inferno 1 Posted November 3, 2006 that just means they are lower compression adn you get to shove more boost down its neck mental note to buy a bleed valve for my cti and "shove more boost down it"! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ant 2 Posted November 3, 2006 dont forget u need the additional fueling before you wack the boost up - or it may result in nice melted pistons Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
johnrobertgordon 0 Posted November 3, 2006 mental note to buy a bleed valve for my cti and "shove more boost down it"! NO NO NO NO NO NO NO............................. Bleed valves are s*ite, they are just a rough bodge! besides the car is mapped for the current boost and so if you add more boost you will just ge pinking on full boost, trust me, i know!
