See you guys are lucky you have two hands see I'm only working with my left hand "born this way" but umm well you see my delema or I would have just bought a 5-speed Tsi AWD Talon but, I have to get the N/T 3 speed auto. Anyways I was wounding If it's possible to make 3 speed auto into a turbo and also would the BOV still work properly if somone could help me on tell me what to do and estimated prices on all the parts it would be helpful because i'm doing the work my self so free labro, but yea thank's. :dsm:
 
You should not have any issues at the lower boost although an aftermarket tranny cooler wouldn't hurt. As for your BOV question :tease:

You'll hear it after you let off the throttle.
 
What was that a stupid question? I was only woundering if the BOV would still work properly I figured that it would but I was just checking. :boring:
 
What about the items needed and what about pricing or is there somewhere to get the parts cheap? any help would be greatful :)
 
why didnt you just get a auto tsi? well too late for that! im not sure but the auto turbos have a different turbo (E20 turbo or somthing like that, im not sure)so you would probibly have to find a auto tsi doner car and work with it, i'm not to sure about the differences of the autos and the 5 speeds check the auto tranny forum.
 
Judging from the text underneath your name there are two things you need to know. The second generation cars (95-99) came with a turbo or non turbo engine. There were automatic transmissions for both turbo and nonturbo cars. The non turbo engine is totally different from the turbo engine and not transplantable. If your car is a non turbo, like it says in your display, then you are going to have to get a turbo kit. You cannot directly bolt on the turbocharger components from the turbo car and have an instant turbocharged car. Everything will work properly so long as you hook it up correctly, including the turbocharger, blow off valve, wastegate actuator, and rising rate fuel pressure regulator.

BTW, if you are talking about your 2g car, you are posting in the wrong forum. Try this one for some answers:
