VR6_Absy 0 Posted August 31, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2010 If that engine is from a MK5 Golf it is NOT FSI.FSI is on the newer Passat 3.2/6.You will need a MK4 R32 or 4Motion alternator etc bracket' date=' so that you can fit PAS.[/quote']cheers buddy, have u done a conversion ? keep the advice coming ;-) Link to post Share on other sites
VR6_Absy 0 Posted August 31, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2010 either way' date=' it's gunna be a schweeet conversion to have, and also the engine will be in something that aint as lard arsed as a mk5 so even better [/quote']thanks mate that's the sort of response i was hoping for ;-) now we got a massive debate lolI thought it was FSI but how do i tell ?

bungy 2 Posted August 31, 2010 Report Share Posted August 31, 2010 C2 and the Phirm are the only 2 that have managed to get the 3.6's running fsi at the moment although others have the engines they havn't been able to get the fsi working. I'm sure i'll be corrected if i'm wrong. Either way it's a cracking engine to have..... Link to post Share on other sites

If all VAG FSI engines suffer with carbon build up like the B7 RS4 and the R8, your better off without. Link to post Share on other sites

Lukey. 381 Posted September 17, 2010 Report Share Posted September 17, 2010 if the mk4 is manifold injection and your mk5 is FSI is the fuel rail still physically the same? Link to post Share on other sites
craggsy 91 Posted September 17, 2010 Report Share Posted September 17, 2010 Mk5 shouldn't be FSI as it runs ME7 ECU. If it ran MED9 then it would of been FSI Link to post Share on other sites
VR6_Absy 0 Posted September 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2010 if the mk4 is manifold injection and your mk5 is FSI is the fuel rail still physically the same?If you use a Mk4 fuel rail when fitting Mk5 you can use the existing fuel lines, otherwise you need an additional fuel regulatorUntil i get the inlet manifold off i'm not prepared to comment anymore on the FSI debate ;-) I haven't yet built up enough brownie points to be allowed anywhere near the new engine but to help others thinking about it i've listed the parts required now that i've sourced them all :-) Link to post Share on other sites
