turbo clocking heads up   Printable Version Volkswagen Forums >> BRAND REVIEW >> Nitrous, Super Chargers, & Turbos >> turbo clocking heads up Page: [1] Login Message << Older Topic   Newer Topic >> turbo clocking heads up - 11/9/2007 11:55:52 AM    tripledigits   Posts: 1 Joined: 11/9/2007 Status: offline I recently bought a turbocharger for my Passat, and was told it was ready to bolt in to the car with no modification.  My shop tried to install it, but it was clocked incorrectly and was pinching the oil supply line and contacting the cat.  They ended up having to pull the turbo and reclock it, with me getting the bill for the extra time it took.  So the point of this post is - always check the turbo clocking against the old turbo before attempting to install it....... < Message edited by tripledigits -- 11/11/2007 7:16:17 AM > _____________________________ 1999 Passat 1.8T 1998 D Sports Racer Post #: 1 RE: turbo clocking heads up - 1/1/2008 5:19:58 PM    jdrains   Posts: 4 Joined: 1/1/2008 Status: offline thanks for the heads up.  what numbers did you end up with?   Im looking to bump up the performance on my passat as well.
