strong word of advice!!! if you leave that setup how it is and and run compound turbo instead your egt's will drop probably by a good 30% and the turbos will be far more efficient lowering even your intake temps as well by a good margin, 2700rpm at 80mph is pretty high, my tdi (in its natural habitat) runs at about 2100rpm at 80mph, my car is 3100lbs and ur truck is 4800 according to the description so with the boost from compounds if you went that route and with a re-gear (which u said u dont wanna do but) you can probably run around 2200 at 80 to reduce drone and constantly high engine speeds
@ngelemental2274
@ngelemental2274 9 ай бұрын
you can also run leaner to reduce egt's but only if the engines coolant/oil cooling can keep up with hotter lean burn, my tdi DOES have a vgt turbo so that could be further contributing to the extremely good drivability at lower rpm

Yeah there's a ton of options to consider but re-gearing and compounds just aren't in the budget at the moment, we're honestly super impressed with the driveability for the little money we have into this setup, with more funding and time we may consider putting more work into it but 90% of its driving is under 50 mile per hour and it's doing beautiful at that

I had a 2000 Jetta that had the 1.9 ALH, I go a solid 44-46 mpg. Driving was mostly hwy with small rolling hills in the Pacific Northwest. I think that engine at 68 mph was running at 2200ish rpm. My stints to 80 were temporary, so I dont recall if it was that high (2700ish), as you are seeing. I would think that if you were to increase your differential gearing, say run 4.10s or 3.55s you would be able to lower it, thereby improving mpg. You say you have enough torque and power (again, it’s not going to be a rockets hip), so I’d start there. I dont recall if it was a 4x4, you could change the rear gear and disconnect the front driveshaft to see what it does EGT wise, rpm wise, and if it gave you better mpg.

@talonpilot actually 4.10s would make the RPMs higher, it goes backwards, but once you load up these little TDIs they actually get better MPGs at higher RPMs unfortunately, the load around 2000-2500 they take so much more boost and fuel it has negative results. I started with my jeep at 2600 rpm and 19-20 mpg, now running it at 3000-3100 rpm I am getting 23-24 mpg in the same conditions

That sounds interesting, I'm not sure we are having too many issues, the tune slams the turbo vanes closed as soon as you let off even a little and it makes the boost extremely responsive, that and he was changing throttle positions alot, these newer turbos are so much snappier to throttle change. We also have the valve cover vented to atmosphere.

What are your thoughts on running the 4l60/80 stand alone and what route should I go for the adapter plate? I hand made the ranger swap that I did but I don’t know if i want to go through that again. I would sooner look for a merc power plant. Thank you and it’s cool to see other peoples budget diesel swaps.

Probably the biggest downside to the Allison would be the cost of the transmission controller. I am using one for my Cummins swap, but that has such a short power band it needs all the gears it can get, where the TDI has useable power from 2500-4500 RPM with just tuning, it can be used with far less gears, and being it ran at 3000 RPM on the highway getting 40-50 MPG, even running as much as 3500 continuous is really not hard on it at all. It is way closer to a gas engine power range than most people realize!

Awesome video! You do such a great job explaining everything and it’s really cool to see these trucks you build with a tdi engine. I don’t know of many people who swap these diesels into full size trucks! I did have one question though. Do you think it’s possible to get 30mpg out of a full size truck like that if it had a manual 5 speed overdriven transmission behind it? If these VW cars are known for getting 40mpg on a regular basis, why does the mpg drop off sharply when you put the same engine in a full size truck? Is it simply because it weighs so much more?

Late 90s Golfs have a frontal surface area of about 22 square feet, late 90s Sierras have a frontal surface of about 34 square feet. If you add in the exposed area of the tires (the Golf's tires are covered by body panels, the Sierra's tires are larger and more exposed) that's a lot of wind resistance. The under carriage of the Sierra also has more exposed area and angles than the Golf does. It's an awesome build, all of that space in the engine bay reminded me of the bullnose 85 F-150 I used to have with a 300CI engine and 4-speed manual (technically 3 with overdrive), it was so easy to work on!

@@owensomers8572 We get the gist of what you are saying and as far as I know you are speaking pure truth. One other factor that comes to mind is it takes twice as much energy to push a vehicle to 80MPH as opposed to 50MPH. Then you have to take into account the additional 50+% of frontal area with considerable worse coefficient of drag you are looking at near enough double the total wind resistance. I'm rather amazed that truck gets up to and holds 80MPH.

@@TDISwaps I have a compound set up on my eagle talon, with gasoline its a bit complicated on the tuning side, but on the diesel side its much easier. Keep the the factory vgt turbo and simply bolt on a larger turbo to force feed the smaller one, im pretty sure you dont need to waste gate the second turbo as the primary turbo is what controls how high the boost goes especially with vgt. My next door neighbor is running compound on his 12 valve cummins, he has no waste gate on the second turbo, just the primary. On my talon I have an atmosphere waste gate that controls the big turbos max boost but the little turbo's waste gate controls how fast it ramps up, From my experience on the talon the smaller turbo must always be running harder than the secondary larger turbo, Fueling has to be exactly right with a gas engine other wise it will run to lean and melt something or break a ring with knock. On a diesel it different, you just need the extra air so that you can utilize all the fuel you want to throw at it so the tuning is less complicated. I think with diesel its easier than you think.

@clayton203 no not at all, these are electronically controlled injectors. I build wiring harnesses for all these swaps 98 AHU all the way through 2015 common rail TDI all are electronic. 89-2003 can be swapped with a mechanical pump, but the electronics are much cheaper when I do it

Ya 4l60 torque converters are all cheap even the high stall ones, mostly we don't feel like tearing it apart again just yet 🤣

Ya it's doing pretty well now, unfortunately over 70 mph I think we are fighting aerodynamics more than weight, my Toyota does better on EGTs even loaded heavier than this truck empty.

Throw out of there that garbage turbo, how could gou think it's ok to run an gtc 15 (!!!!) on a truck? that pd 1.9 tdi running on proper camshaft could do easily 5500rpm and could make use of (at least) a 22-23 turbo (gtb2260 /gtb23). That gtc1549 should NOT be run at 2bars (30psi) and it's waaay to restrictive on exhaust side... even if you ask just fir shitty power numbers. We builded here arl/awx/axr pushing 300-420bhp without nos, diesel only. Torque was about 600-880nm with full boost at 3500rpm.
@TDISwaps
@TDISwaps 2 ай бұрын
Lol I understand, the problem is we need boost at 1400 RPM, we really need to to compounds on the truck to see it's full potential. As is though it doesn't see over 3000 rpm or even 25 psi boost that much, it just has to have low end boost to move and my big turbo swaps do not have enough power down low to take off. We hope to add another turbo on top and benefit from the quick spool of the gtc1549 and then dump all exhaust to a much much bigger turbo
