V8 Into B5 II

[SeekB00st]

x2... what motor is that one out of?

Its a twin turbo V8 so rs6 sounds appropiate.

[Siena]

any idea of pricing?

Still working out costing. I can say though, 1,8T kit will cost more than V6.

[Siena]

Both catalysts fitted - it involved removing the subframe, grinding off the I4 left-hand tranny mount, and welding in a regular V6 item. The V6 item allows the V6 bracket to be used, and is on a lower level, same as the right-hand side.

The raised I4 set-up doesn't allow a catalyst / down pipe to fit, as the distance between the floow and bracket's way too tight. Catalysts now fit perfectly, just need to fab up a Y-piece to link both catalysts to the 2.5" single Milltek.

Pictures will be up later.

Also interested in a kit, or just the custom mounts for the 1.8 model depending on total price. thanks!

[4ringking]

I approve.


Now who wants to try and squeeze this one in there?

Porsche Cayenne V8 Turbo motor. I've pulled a couple of these things...

Your b5v8 swap threads are my favorite... It is awesome to see people push the envelope. I might be one of your copy cats in the future...

You can't!! I get to be the copy cat!!

[Castor Troy]

what is the physical difference between the A8 and S8 32v? is it just software? or does the S8 use different cams/heads/pistons??

[AWD Mike]

Bump. I will be interested in videos and pricing for the kit!

I'm almost sorry to say this but Siena's been banned. All you'll need to know is located here.

Siena made a bit of a hack on this project and the whole engine bay needed rewiring plus he used two V6 Lambor sensors on the CAT which through out the ECU plus the wrong MAF and only V6 CATs which the guy is hoping will not be too restrictive but it looks like this project might finally get finished and the owner of the cars been through hell and back to get this sorted.

Impressive work! I have pictures of an RS6 motor in a B5 with an 01E bolted to it.
