Its strange looking under the bonnet but if you remove the vw badge people wouldn't really know. You done a good job with the install


Ah cheers man, you should've asked around....I was never too far away :lol:

So just a small update, the vans running well with the 2nd engine fitted, sat at mostly 80 on the way back up from mania without breaking too much of a sweat, 8)

Looks like the gearbox will have to come off and be swapped over in the near future as what I thought was a worn gearbox beforehand is actually quite a good 1, it seems my spare is much more worn than the other so will be getting swapped in the next month or so :?

Also while I was at mania Martin van-tuner worked his magic on the 2nd ecu (that I got on the donor car) and put on an eco type map, I didn't want anything too larey with it being a standard unknown engine so he's only upped the power to an estimated 150hp and a little more torque, certainly plenty for a van......but we always want more don't we?! :lol:

Sooo not much has changed with the tourneo, been racking up some miles no the engine conversion,
Had a family hiday in it a couple of weeks ago which threw up an issue with the suspension/tyre combo......as in it was too low for the width of tyres, or the tyres were too wide for the height of the suspension :lol:
So I set about putting it back to standard height, I love how smooth it drives just not too sure on how it now looks :?: :roll:
What you reckon?
