I remember watching you when you had 500 subs and now you’re gaining more fans. Love the content… all of it… killer stuff

[@Rustomod]

Awesome thanks !!

I know that drive-by-wire is against your religion but the ECU and a VNT turbo from the 115 hp model makes a night and day difference compared to the mechanical pump with a shaved boost pin

[@paprikaworld8313]

clearance wise if you can get ahold of a scrap industrial version of an ALH like a BXT, BEQ or BEU engine (used in some euro brand forklifts sold in the states) they have different a acessory/injectionpump bracket with alternator on top, ac in the middle and the powersteering pump on the bottom and it usually also comes with a timingbelt cover without enginemount passtrough (usually in forklifts enginemounts use some of the boltholes underneath the exhaust manifold)

[@Rustomod]

Ok awesome thanks that’s good to know!

[@CoolBlue87GT]

Looking forward to your progress, hope you can find a way to keep the AC. I understand the clearance problem. This is the same engine I have in my TDI Fiero that came out of a 2000 Jetta. In my swap, used the fly by wire accelerator pedal & Jetta dash & ECM. It's getting 57 mpg. I used to live in Maryland, know MIR well. I have subscribed to your channel to see the progress.
