whizzer71 0 Posted September 1, 2007 (edited) Hi all,I have a 2.0 ltr RGY engine with a knackered bottom end,and my mate has a good DKZ? (122 bhp 1.9gti cat engine) bottom end,will the RGY head fit and will I need to mod anything else to run it in turbo charged form (at around 1 Bar) ?. Cheers Tristan Edited September 1, 2007 by whizzer71 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cheers Tristan Are you going to be using the 2.0T management? I guess people use the xu10 head on xu9's as an upgrade, so it must fit. You'd have to think about CR though and an oil feed/return for the turbo and knock sensor. Are you sure running 1bar through a standard alloy block is a good idea though?!

craig f90 0 Posted September 2, 2007 Isnt there any info on here about Henry yorkes 1.9t car? Im not sure how his cars built (i recall sonosam calling it a hybrid) but, i know he's using MP3.2 management. As for the rest of it ????? sorry. I have read on a few posts about folks fitting a xu10 head to xu9's. Wouldnt you need better/stonger intenals on your bottom end though? i'd just buy a complete 2.0t lump. But im not a brave person.

Henry Yorke 269 3 Cars Posted September 2, 2007 Isnt there any info on here about Henry yorkes 1.9t car? Im not sure how his cars built (i recall sonosam calling it a hybrid) but, i know he's using MP3.2 management. As for the rest of it ????? Yep and yep! 1.9 DFZ 105 bhp engine with 406 "stuff" to go with the management. Runs 0.5 bar - 164bhp / 200lb/ft torque which does me nicely for a fast road cruiser! My low compression is in the cylinder head of the DFZ engine. If I put a GTI head on it, it would be pretty much like a DKZ engine. The DKZ engine has lower comp than a D6B (standard 1.9) and I believe this is down to the pistons being dished more in the DKZ. The RGY has its low comp in its bottom end I believe (in its pistons too). Not sure on the chamber size in the head on the RGY. This will govern the compression ratio. On the DFZ, the piston has a small dish (9cc) and the chamber volume is quite large at 49cc. The pistons sit only 0.001" down the bore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
