This is my draw thru set up I've been working on. 2007cc, T3/T4, all 2" plumbing, 38mm wastegate, etc... The pics should speak for themselves w/o much input from me:

Yeah, very nice. Are you going to run a decklid? Any cooling issues expected? (cooling fan drawing in hot air)

A deck lid is planned.......not sure how well it's going to work out though. I've tried to tuck things in as best as possible though. I didn't do the tig, a buddy of mine did. He is very good!

I'm lookin forward to reading up on your experiences. I've been looking to turbo my bug for a while, but I want it to be neat and tucked in under the lid. I've been trying to get the turbo below the original heat shield, but there's just too little room.

Doing it all w/ a draw thru isn't easy, unless you're using small turbos :cheers: This will most likely be stood off extensively. To me, not running a deck lid just screams " Too lazy to make it work." ;)

Agreed. I'd like to run a simple setup with a small turbo. I'm not aiming for crazy power, just 'sparkly enough for daily traffic' fast :)

Are you kidding? It's never enough......never!!!!!

More pics as of today. Got the carb hung finally, and a support bracket made (it will be re-done). I had to tap the manifold and install new studs for mounting, and also on the carb for the stacks. I didn't like the previous owner's set up for mounting. Now I can focus on the stupid little stuff.....

I really love this set-up!
Draw-through has always had a vintage-feel to it which makes it perfect for Beetles!
By the looks of your pictures your planning this build carefully and are also keeping an eye on the build-quality. It looks like it's done by a pro! Is this your first turbo build or have you done some before?

Ha ha.....thanks. Nope, this is my first build. It's been slow going, but it's getting there. Now I'm up against the little time consuming crap, like throttle cable routing, wastegate mounting, build my oil lines, etc...

Intake may get changed to swing it forward more.
Exhaust is coated, parts are going together.....

It looks great in the car! Aren't you worried that you will experience a substantial turbo-lag because of the big turbo combined with the long plumbing?

Hotrodvw

18-02-2010, 08:11

What is it that you think is 'long'? It's no longer than most draw thru set ups.

Hotrodvw

18-02-2010, 08:13

Got the exhaust routed out of the car...

The exhaust-gasses have to travel quite a distance to reach the turbo, combined with the big turbo it will take a while to get the turbo going.

This is such a great project ! Respect ! :cool:

Question about the turbo, is it allready carbon seald? or do you still have to modify the turbo to make it suitable for the draw thru setup? and if so, where do you get the parts for the modifications that are needed?

Great job by the way! looks sweet :D what's your aim??? ( hp & torque )

greets!

Hotrodvw

01-03-2010, 17:26

It's already set up for the draw thru, as it was ordered with my specs. I didn't piece it together, so I can't tell you what/where, etc...sorry :(

Dunno on torque, I'd like to see over 200ft/lbs and 200hp at the wheels...... We'll see! :thumbup:

Now how about some clips seeing it rolling or even better, accellerating :D

Oh, exciting to read true this I must say really nicely done on the turbo build.
Engine really sounds great on the clip :D

Thank you! I had internal engine issues, sold the entire turbo set up, and rebuilt the long block, went IDA's. :eek:
