Summary of change:
Subpage of MembersPage/MarcellGal/PowerAndTraction * Even before we purchased the car, they warned that the "cooler of the air conditioner is missing" * more than that, I think the compressor is also missing ! ** but I have a compressor from earlier (searching for it ;-) ** I'll check if it's driven by the same type of belt. Beltspeed (compressor RPM at max RPM) Anyway, since most of the A/C seems to be in place, it is probably possible to make A/C work so the car gets highly suitable to travel to KOE (King of Europe race, in 2007 held in Poland) '''A/C Control related thoughts''' * disable compressor at max TPS * disable compressor during cranking * after disabled, do NOT enable for 20 seconds (to prevent compressor clutch wear and belt abuse) MembersPage/PaulF - also should disable A/C if pressure is too low (method depends on type of pressure sensor). For vehicles without IAC valve it would be useful to be able to disable A/C at a speed/pedal point (to prevent engine stall) ---- '''Clearance''' http://www.vems.hu/files/MembersPage/MarcellGal/Audi/oldengine/oldbay_05_m.jpg * 1 hydraulic fluid container (central hydraulics fluid reservoir) for steering and brakes * 2 break cylinders and break fluid tank (also for clutch) * 3 main radiator for engine coolant ** there seem to be enough space in front of it for the air conditioner cooler. In fact, with the charge cooler's space requirement, I cannot imagine any other mounting position for the air conditioner radiator * 4 mounting flange for belt driven "Central hydraulics pump" ** It looks like power steering and breaks * 5 "front engine mount" (is that the proper name?) ** also serves as the mounting flange for the alternator ** The '''charge cooler has to be fitted either below or above the frame mounted part of the torque stop => seriously limits the max size charge cooler that can be fitted''' ** It's very common that a tuner removes the front engine torque absorber...once. Then they get tired of snapped and torn hoses (oops) and put it back in again. ** The '''torque stop can usually be modified a bit to give 10-20mm more clearance above the cradle'''. That also limits the movement of the engine and makes the car feel better (in Jorgen's opinion). * 6 Fuel filter
Optional: Add document to category:
Wiki formatting: * is Bullet list ** Bullet list subentry ... '''Bold''', ---- is horizontal ruler, <code> preformatted text... </code> See wiki editing HELP for tables and other formatting tips and tricks.
