What do I have????

I just picked up a 1990 tsi AWD, it had a burnt piston and one bent valve and the block has been bored .20 over with a new head and hks cams. I just bought the car I am new to the dsm market if any one has any clue what baseline hp I may be looking at, and the possible potential this motor could have. One other Q'n 20g or 60-1

Thanx

Its impossible to even guess at what your power would be without a mod list. You dont even mention what turbo is on it. But having cams suggests its been at least moderately modded. The motor is a 6 bolt, so it can do 500 whp on stock internals. And I'm nt sure I understand your turbo question, the 60-1 is MUCH larger than a 20g. Hardly comparable. Which one to run depends entirely on your goals, and how far you are willing to go to support the turbo.

210 hp stock if im not mistaken....

remember its a 1g, so 190hp stock or 180 with an A/T... but this isnt stock, nobody i know replaces a head without major bolt-on work. id throw a guess at quite a bit more power than stock, but who knows.

o yea, must have read to fast and thought it was a 2g :screwy:

It is a 90" tsi awd 5spd I would like to hit the 10's that is why I asked about the turbo. But the head 2mm over valves and it has a 16g ported/clipped. I just got the car just trying to get an idea of what this car may be pushing HP wise ( thanx for the replies I am new to dsm's).

On 16gs its not uncommon to get over 350 whp on race gas, but thats the limit. 20gs have done ~450 whp. 60-1 will get well over 500 whp, and people have run 10s with ~490ish. Tim Switzer ran a 10.9 on a 20g, but I believe he is the only one to ever do it. 60-1, or one of the larger garret gT30 wheels will make 10s more likely. But the turbo is a very small part of the 10 second equation. Good luck with your project.
