Stage 5 Malone Tuning baja w/compound setup!

So I wanted to share my tune and also exchange some thoughts ...new GT1756VK turbo, 4 bar MAP sensor, a custom built aluminum log intake manifold, FT 300 nozzles w/2 stage calibration. ..will also be installing a T04 turbo from a Russian built unimogg, during desert storm my brother was in the Army and while searching for weapons of mass destruction he opened up a bunch of crates with new twin turbo diesel engines. ..he took off 4 turbos, I got one of them. ...the intake on this turbo is 3 inches and has a 2.5 inch discharge. ..my engine is a 2003 ALH...this should make an interesting powerful combo.

What are your thoughts?

Also, wanted to saye that I sent my ECU and harness to fast forward for a new wiring harness and tune to fit my TDI into my baja build

In for pics Sounds like one heck of a build!

Sorry but I don't know how to upload pictures on this forum. ..it wants a link and I won't ever use a photo sharing site again. ...I don't see where I can upload from my computer. ..other than that I would love to share my photos of my Fiat 500 baja.

tinypic has been pretty unobtrusive for me, gotta register or they delete the pics after 90 days though

Housing dimensions don't mean much, give some dimensions of the wheels for better input, though it really doesn't matter all that much, no matter what it is it'll wake up and do something in some RPM range.

ETA: make sure and think on a HP bypass wastegate, as a small VNT turbine like that is quickly overwhelmed by reasonable airflow.

My thoughts...

A turbo from a Unimog? ...on an ALH?



Upgrade the firewall with armor plating, because if that thing blows, something will come shooting out the engine compartment.



No not really (at least probably not) (hopefully).

Good luck with the build.

Thanks itsmejerry, I appreciate your delicate input, lol...from the research I've done on compound turbo setups, the big turbo is almost twice the size of the little turbo which is about right for my application.

I'm really thinking about going with a air to water intercooler. ..my research shows that they actually dissipate the heat the best.
