John another cheap way to make the house really cool. Setup is key, about 25 min a door if you do em all at once. Cost about 2.00$ each. Or hire the neighbor kid to sand the paint off. But beats the shitty look of an old door painted 100 different coats.

So if you wanted to optimise the comp and booost you can do that easier with custom pistons than fiddling with off the shelf stuff that may not be what you want for the unique requirements of a restricted motor...

The AAN pistons, which are going into this motor, w/the 20v head offer a 9.3:1 comp ratio - we can run 26lb of boost on 93 octane pump gas - what would be a target for comp ratio and boost be given 32mm restrict?

Displacement is currently 2.2l - so could be jumped to 2.5l and still fit in the rewls..

A set of new stock pistons are $600, set of forged is $700 sad smiley

Tell me more about what you would do to improve this configuration?

Are you heart set on a 20v audi? why not look into a newer design 20v or an ABF-T… or or.

I've considered the 07k - all aluminum Audi 20v, believe it to be 2.5l - but just to get the motor setup for loongitudinal duty would require about $4k and many hours of re-fabbing shnizle - for what gain outside of weight would I get for the $ and hours?

Remember - I'm a classic grass roots guy, this particular catastrophe will turn a 4 race season into a 1 race season - the pot only has so many beans in it...

Vittorio muchachito mio, I hate typing, and hate PM. I telephone both numbers I have for you..

Hank at IROZ has already fitted the 07K to the 01E trans with a bell housing adapter, mounts, and the works.

Saves probably 75lbs off the Iron 5-cyl 20V and a way better design.

Also shorter overall length frees up enough room for a full radiator in FRONT where it belongs even in a small chassis Audi

Diff options for 01e suck. For cheap stuff 1.8t would be the easiest but a half litre of displacement is a lot to give up

Hej AJ, had a nice chat wif Vittorio and I said before we can explore sensible options we need to have some basic info, so I said I‘d ax youse.
First: For his thing ANN do you know the rod c-c?
Do you happen to know the block deck height?
Do you know if the pistons are DEAD FLUSH with deck at TDC? we're talking fractions of mm here ZERO or what?
Do you know compressed gasket thickness? Gasket bore dia?
Combustion chamber volume?

You must those things right off the tip of your head, so share the info doooood.

Hey John, it's same as 4-cylinder. 220mm deck height 144mm rods... MAYBE 48mm journal like the fours, maybe 46mm like the older fives, kinda hazy there...

For whatever it is worth, the 5-cyl 20v motors are identical to the VW 16v motors in terms of internals and combustion chamber designs, etc

No idea if the pistons are dead flush but im inclined to say not. Won't have a 20v lying around till after I drive over to Boise to pick it up

The only 20Vs I have access to are about three hours away.

For the 10V stuff Audi was apparently all over the board. My old 2.1 block had the pistons way down in the bores like they had heard about squish and decided they wanted nothing to do with it. My current 2.2 has the pistons slightly proud of deck, as I discovered when I was scraping the deck surface... but it's the "high compression" engine, whopping 8.5:1...

If you're having new pistons made, why copy what Audi did for whatever weird Audi reason?

That decision hasn't been made. What we want to do is some side by side comparison deal like three colums Stock vs "specA" vs "spec B"
So we need to know where we're starting from..
Everything is always a cost vs benefit ratio so we need to apply costs and what it is to see and think about if this mod say forged zero deck 9.5 comp pistons would be worth the incresed cost vs cast whatever down the bore 0,4 OEM junk...

Pistons come up a couple thou proud at top of stroke.

Don't know what the clearance is stock yet and I should know the compressed gasket height in the next day or so...

One step closer to wrenching on the rally car again! First car in the shed, for some maintenance. Going to pickup the rally car tomorrow. Also finished the remodel of the upstairs bathroom. (ran the house budget out so no more house work till next month!)

Sorry for the useless post, just getting the motivation going
