Does an AGU bottom end fit an S3.

it out a 1999 golf...

Yes... Welly is using an AGU in his currently...20mm pins and 9.5:1 comp ratio rather than 9:1 on the S3

tam this thread title is very misleading.

I'm devastated

 

[Welly]

I'm on the second in fact.... and there was nothing really wrong with the first.

 

[S3 TAM]

do you have to change the comp ratio?

do the pistons in an AGU give this comp ratio?

It's the pistons that give the higher compression - they are different to the S3 pistons, albeit slightly. No need to change the compression ratio at all, just bolt the AGU bottom end on and go.

nice i've just picked up an AGU bottom end for £60, and already have a large port head at home. my thinking is to build up a new engine on a stand then do a stright swap. may be BT.... watch this space...

i'm just looking to buy a flexi hone tools.

what one/size do i need as there are so many to choose from?

 

[aragorn]

I've got one you can borrow, just send some money to cover the postage.

Cheers

Hmm intresting so what is the best combo of a 1.8t engine? is it a A4 or pissrat head on what bottom end?

not exactly the right question and subject to what you are trying to achieve power/turbo but... essentially a bottom end with 20mm small ends (AGU/APY/AMK/BAM etc), rods and a large port head from an AEB/AGU or any other large port that going big bigger power setups...
