Happy to have found this video as I've been thinking very seriously about doing a 07K swap in an 2016 Audi S3 8V pre-facelift. Nice to see the 8P getting some love.
Please tell me your going to have more videos coming soon I just sourced a 2006 BGP to build as I follow along in my 2006 A3 hatch 6sp fwd only 😢 but super stoked about seeing the rest and thank you for your contribution to the world.
@@fornoreason4291 Yes. I have footage of the disassembly to sort through, but the footage only starts about halfway through. So I’ll be piecing it together with pictures and explanations to cover the second video. 3rd video will be engine assembly (currently in progress, still waiting on a few parts to arrive), 4th will be installation/integration into the car + 1st start, 5th will be footage of it driving, on the dyno, and a recap.
Yes. If you use a NA 07K crank, you’ll need a 6 bolt flywheel from a 2.0TFSI (timing belt) engine. If you run a CEPA TT-RS crank, you’ll need a flywheel from a CCTA TSI (timing chain) engine as those have 8 bolt flywheels. I believe your S3 should have the 6 bolt flywheel.
Can the vw early and late timing chain engine crankshafts be interchanged? Why did you turn the valves down rather than opening up the valve seats to accommodate the larger valves or get a later large valve head? Is the small valve head a better performer?
In order: Yes, as long as you use the corresponding timing components with the appropriate crank. You can update an older block with the new components, or backdate a newer block with the older components. WRT the intake valves, the machine shop had already decked the head and cleaned it, so abandoning it to get a later 170HP head didn’t make sense. Plus my machinist said for my goals the bigger valves wouldn’t be a factor. Hindsight being 20/20, I’d have sourced a 170HP head and swapped it out. But I think it’ll be OK.
@@5Seazons I ended up getting a set of 034 Motorsports Density line for 6MT swapped 07K applications. I don’t intend to launch the car often or at all, so they should hold up for a while the way I’ll be driving it. May revisit it later, but didn’t want to just use stock mounts.

Absolutely magnificent; detailed and comprehensive.
Eager to watch as you build my dream-car!
Timing is impeccable, also looking at seeing if anyone had this in mind for A3 Quattro, following!
Found you from your comment on insta about Americans not driving manual
As they shouldnt. Dsg and 10r80 better.
Keep it up, Carson!

Link for the thrust bearing mod?
Thanks for the reminder!

My car is a 2011 manual Audi S3 8p, would the engine fit with the MQ350 gearbox and the flywheel of the 2.0 TFSI engine?
Yes. If you use a NA 07K crank, you’ll need a 6 bolt flywheel from a 2.0TFSI (timing belt) engine. If you run a CEPA TT-RS crank, you’ll need a flywheel from a CCTA TSI (timing chain) engine as those have 8 bolt flywheels. I believe your S3 should have the 6 bolt flywheel.

I do not see the thrust bearing mod video listed. Do you have a link? I have a TTRS crank on its way to me. Thanks for all the info.
What motor mounts are you going to use?

So how much HP do you think you could make
@@JoshuaRowe-n6t The turbo itself is rated for 800WHP. I’m going for 720HP at the flywheel.
Following closely!!!!!!
