VW Rabbit 16V
Sup everyone.. nicer, cleaner new forums.. but to the point .. i looking at buying a VW rabbit and droping a 16v into it .. and i was wondering at how much labor ..and in the end how fast it might actually be.
Willing to take anyones insightful opinions.. |
you want N/A.... well your not goin to get the HP gains like a Turbo 16V... but im sure you cn put something around 170 with a fully done 16v
|
ya ... i was thinking of keeping it none turbo .. for now at least.. its a rabbit when there fully gutted they weight 1800lbs and with 170bhp it wil fly.
|
That rabbit in u'r sig looks nice!! do u have the link do that car domain site u got it from? I'd like to see some other pics.
I especially like the Porsche mirrors |
If you drop a stock engine/tranny it should be running high 14s with no weight reduction.
With some cams, p&p'ed head, header, and good fueling they've gone mid 13s on slicks. |
UMMMM
im guessin that with a 16v engine n tranny in a rabbit it can be runnin bout low 14s high 13s FUUUUUUUCK HONDA |

my buddy is selling his.
PM me, his is a 16v on dual webbers and roll caged, pulls like a crazy monkey. |
saying whats up to all the people that waste their life away here!
Anyway, my friend has a rabbit like that one, except the one pictured looks a lot better, anyway he droped a 16V in it, had some work done to fuel variation, suspension, also, had it tuned. His hitting mid 13s, Pretty quick, now his thinking of a transplating the mkiv vr6 engine into it, and buying a supercharger. After everything said and done he should be hitting mid to low 11s. 1000lb car+vr6=fast vdub. |
K he needs help not compliments on his picture
n who cares bout ur friends en rabbits HELP THIS EN GUY |
Rabbits are getting harder to find now days, it'll be hard to find one in good condition for a good price. 16v engines usually go for under $500 for the 2L's.
To answer your question about the labour: The mechanical part can be done in a day or 2. Taking out the original engine won't take that long, a few hours with the proper tools. You'll need scirocco 16v mounts and scirocco 16v exhaust manifold and downpipe The wiring can be a bit of a bitch tho. If you get a 2L 16v and use the CIS-E Motronic injection that comes with it it'll be even harder. You can also use regular CIS-E that comes in scirocco 16v's, but it's meant for 1.8L's and runs lean up top, if you decide to use CIS-E, you'll also need the scirocco intake manifold, and you can make a fuel enrichement module which gives extra fuel @ WOT. |
Ya man your right bout rabbits being hard to find... i havent found a rabbit sedan yet.. and i have been keeping my eyes open for about a month.. even using autotrader.ca and styll comming up with absolutly nothing.. thanks for the info bout the install...
