Great video and looking forward to see more coming! Looks sharp and clean. Also the video was uploaded in 360p just an fyi...I’m still watching and still subscribed with that bell 🔔
This helps a lot me and my dad are swapping a 2.7t into our daily driver 02 Vw Passat with 4motion and decided we wanted a single turbo as well. Hope it all works well for you with precision 5858 can't wait to see it up and running!
@@CIPGAS your build is awesome 👌 I've always wanted to do a stk on my c5 and I will when these Frankenturbo's die, 8 hard years those boostie boys have gone strong 💪.
Really enjoying your videos. Sad and happy to see you're going the VR6 route. Would have loved to see more content with the 2.7 single set up. I recently bought a Stage 3 Imola Yellow S4. Wasn't looking for a B5 but I saw the ad and got enticed fast. Little flashy for me but was in great condition. In any case, I'm hunting down a boost leak/sensor issue causing rich fuel trims at the moment. Can't continue with tuning til I figure it out. Is there any chance you could make a video that discusses what you did with the stock rats nest of vacuum lines and valves/solenoids? N80, N75 and not running a MAF for example. I'm starting to gather info and create a parts list for a single turbo conversion when this current setup pops. Thanks for the helpful content! P.S. For the love of god, where can you find a comprehensive service manual for this damn car? haha I find free manuals on the forum but the info is all over the place and difficult to navigate. My previous car was a built Mini Cooper and the Bentley Service Manual was a life saver. Very easy to learn and work with.
Nice work man, and well-done video! One tip that might make things a little cleaner for you--instead of adding short lengths of hose and capping them like you did for the coolant feeds and return, just clamp a reinforced silicone cap directly to the hose barbs. HPS and Samco sell them, and I'm sure you could find cheap knockoffs if you wanted to save a few bucks. Obviously a little hose, two clamps, and a bolt are basically free, but they still take up some space.
By the way, I wouldn’t recommend anything rubber as they’re known to split and they’re in a terrible place to get to. Just buy freeze plugs and knock them in. So much better and worry free
Thanks for a great in depth video! I can't remember if you mentioned it in your previous videos, but have you done any internal work, like rods and pistons? Keep up the awesome videos!
Your oil feed will melt and ketch on fire router that way .the correct way which is forward up through the first runner back to the turbo.just trying to help I have a fully built 2.7t with a complete tubular manifold setup in my b7 s4 .things melting is a big issue.if a oil line of any kind sprays on your exhaust it will not might but will ignite.
I have an 034 clutch line which is much longer and easier to move than the stock line. So I installed it before the engine was completely in. but also would be very easy to do from under the car. lots of space now without the turbos in the way.
Hi, nice video, really informative. I plan to single turbo my 2.7T allroad extremely soon. My only question is, what became of your single turbo 2.7T build? I noticed a Vr6 turbo in the engine bay of the S4. I missed the updates in between. Do you recommend the single turbo set up?
Hey, thank you! I sold all my single turbo parts to go vr6 so that I could keep tinkering with the car. I would definitely recommend it if you want the experience and noise lol but I think you can be faster on twins if that’s your aim
Cool, thnx. Do you think a different choice of turbo would have made a difference in the performance? Like maybe something with a smaller back housing, and a decent size compressor?
Great job on the content. Do you happen to have any time slips from you build or any dragy numbers. I have a a 2.7T and trying to decide which direction to go with the build and if its gonna be worth it compared to what I would spend to build a N54. * * Manual transmissions are awesome ( 3 manual Audi's including S4 4.2l, 08 Hayabusa, and 335Xi). I've manual swapped about 35 cars. But until they start making manual transmissions that can handle 7-800 ft lbs of torque, I'm done with manuals for now. Drive something with a 8HP tranny (swapped or oem) and form your own opinion. Speed and acceleration is relative. . . . .used to think my GSXR was fast until I jumped on a Busa. You will build A4s until you encounter something better. . . . 😊
Hey Man, Thank you! I don’t have slips or draggy info on the build sadly. I’m never on the drag strip and didn’t have access to a draggy but that would be a good investment. And honestly you’re right about the autos they’re definitely faster and newer ZF’s can hold a lot of power which is a huge plus. In my case I just like to drive and enjoy being around cars so a manual is better for me. If I ever get competitive about building a fast car then things would change. For the time being I don’t need the fastest, just driving for the fun of it. Also I’ve never even been on a bike lol I think it would ruin cars for me 😂
So with my car being a manual 2000 in the us I didn’t have to deal with those. But the CEL would have to be tuned out. Although I do have 2.8 heads now that have the rear ports for those but I just blocked them off.
So weird, I’m getting my donor b6 a4 3.0 6 speed this week, taking my 2.7 6 speed from my a6 and transplanting into the b6 been debating a STK, or f21s just not for sure because one is light mod and the other requires top to bottom work lol
I found mine locally from someone who was parting out a 2.8 a4 But you I’ve seen a few floating around on eBay US. International shipping would probably be killer but You may find some on eBay UK
Yh I guess the search continues and it is a killer from what iv been looking at not cheap atall been looking at a pair online that look identical to the 2.8 manifolds but there advertised as off a audi a8 v6 part number 078253034DG Are these the same as the 2.8 manifolds any help would be greatly appreciated thanks in advance
The flange is made to run that specific wastegate and the space under the manifold is very limited too.You might be able to use another wastegate if you weld a different flange in but the space may limit what you run.
5 cylinder would be great but it’s a lot more work to swap in an engine bit meant for this chasis than to make power on the 2.7t. Specially when this engine e can handle a fair amount of power, sounds great, and has a huge aftermarket.
@@ericgorder1 you know alex mirea? He did that to a b5 a4 but s4s only should have a 2.7 still dont know why people swapping motors choose b5 chasis not b7
I’m super late and you may not see this but I just recently bought a 2001 B5 S4. 130,618 miles. Done a lot of maintenance on it so far but nothing crazy as far as turbos. I have tons of questions about these motors and things. Is there a way I can reach out to you?
Engine is built but I’m looking for quicker response. The top end of the 6262 would be great, but I’d rather have the torque on the low end a few rpm earlier.
6262 gen2 will spool faster then your journal best 5858 I'm running a gxt3582r gen2 which is a65.7I'm compressor wheel and 82ar. Seeing 10psi by 3000rpm and 27psi by 3500rpm spending money on a turbo is the one thing you should if you want a fast spool time AND big power.
@@mk2vrt Turbo is definitely an important buy and it is definitely something you should spend some good money on, as much as your budget allows. Also a ball bearing turbo would definitely spool a bit faster that a journal bearing turbo but it would definitely not be. Big difference as that’s not its main advantage. A lot of the advantage of BB is the continued inertia which would allow you to hold boost much better between shifts and also durability when correctly oiled. But with that said spend a much as you can on a turbo but don’t let anyone tell you what you have is bad just because they bought something more expensive. Everyone has a different goal and budget and that’s why there are so many choices.
You need a 3" v band for the turbo to up-pipes and a 3.5" one for the for the downpipe. The downpipe also ends on a 3.5' v band but some cut it off to weld an exhaust and other use it as is.
Definitely one of the most underrated b5 channel
Thanks man! hopefully we can get mainstream soon.
This helps me so much! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Happy to help!
Great video, lots of info that most people overlook. Keep up the good work, should be a wild ride.

Thanks man!! And yeah I kind of ran past my timeline a bit so didn’t have the time to record the install video
Great video. Tons of good info. I'm not planning on going single turbo. Still some of the details give me ideas to keep my 2.7T in good shape. Thanks

How difficult was installing the clutch line with the piping in the way? Great progress!

Both are great options. The duals are easier now because there are less changes but maintenance on a single build is easier.
4uattros4 that’s where I was wanting to be with it, change a turbo in 45 minutes vs pulling an engine sounds wonderful
Brian Steinkamp Exactly!!
Work on my v10 please it started running ruff needs a new intake and o2 bank 1 sensor 1
Never worked on one but I’m sure I could figure it out.
Thinking of going twin turbo with one small and one large turbo in series. What say you???
Would be awesome!
The space would definitely be an issue but I think go for it!
Were did you buy your 2.8 exhaust manifolds from carnt get these in the uk and are holding me back from going single turbo on my s4
I found mine locally from someone who was parting out a 2.8 a4
But you I’ve seen a few floating around on eBay US. International shipping would probably be killer but You may find some on eBay UK
Yh I guess the search continues and it is a killer from what iv been looking at not cheap atall been looking at a pair online that look identical to the 2.8 manifolds but there advertised as off a audi a8 v6 part number 078253034DG
Are these the same as the 2.8 manifolds any help would be greatly appreciated thanks in advance
why would you leave the turbo inside the engine bay? Supposed to mount above the hood
LMAO!
Does anyone know if it's true that you can only run the tial mvr, xs power claims it, but I don't know that I buy that
The flange is made to run that specific wastegate and the space under the manifold is very limited too.You might be able to use another wastegate if you weld a different flange in but the space may limit what you run.
Go for the 5 cylinder engine! It's higher performing than the V6 I think.

Yes it was, tuner did a great job
if your engine is built a 6262 ball bearing would EAT on this set up

@@CIPGAS thank you so much
Those are well are suppose to be precision specific they're flanges change be bought at ATPtubo.com
What happened to the k24s? They hold up?
Yeah they held up well and made great power. I just wanted something with a little more drama lol
Are you on stock internals?
Pauter rods and new bearing a new piston rings on Stock pistons
You still run this turbo? Thinking of doing this with a 6062
Actually just made a video on that
czcams.com/video/4bYwu_ixbnA/video.html
You can only supercharge the 2.8 rite
Yeah, if you were to turbo charge it it would just be cheaper and easier to install a 2.7t
It seems like heat will be a huge issue with this conversion
It definitely was
How much boost are you aiming for? And how much HP?
Stop watching my videos lol!!! It supposed to be a surprise
4uattros4 i told you it was too late. I already saw the other video. It would have never worked anyway. It lasted this long lol
Dude where in.jersey u from
South Amboy
Who ur tuner
German Elite Tuning
How much power is this good for?
With this turbo would be good for a little over 600 AWHP
@@CIPGAS that’s solid! Should be fun! I just did k04s on my 2.7. Not a daily but fun enough. But that’s also in a C5 Allroad
Is your motor built ??
Yeah it is
Just blew one of my k04s idk kinda interested
It’s a fun project and about the same $$ as replacing the k04’s
What Precision turbo would you have chosen to see more usable boost sooner so you can boost around town like you mentioned you liked in another video?
I think a 5858 is ideal for around town fun
Any smaller and we’re limiting the motor and bigger adds lagg
your injectors are facing the wrong way buddy
I could have used this a couple months ago. Check out my single turbo B6 @Demringstho315
