no, the engine in the cars listed is a bp. which is physcally 22mm longer than the b6 motor.

OK i took the advice and didn't drive my car til i had everything . But when i went to do a tune-up on the car the oil smiled like gas/exhaust. That means my rings are shot right?? If so what pistons are the best and if i wanna go the other route where can i find another B6. I know everyones going with the KL/K8 ext. but i want to keep me mx a B6.

Ya, it's best to go and get another b6. Pistons were not your problem, but 8.5:1 wouldn't kill you. However, since you have to replace your motor. A b6t or bp(t) may be a good choice. The bpt should be less likely to have internal issues or a blown HG.

If you are looking at doing pistons and rods, it'll be about the same price as a new bp. The type you choose will not matter.. most will be fit for 600hp, and your block isn't. Just make sure to do some research and find a good shop to do the work for you. This is something you SHOULD NOT do yourself.

A good source is the "list your mods" thread. You'll have to search for it. You can see what everyone is using and if need be, google parts you are not familiar with. I probably guess you will have to spend $1000 - 2000 to do it right.

ok i read that i can swap a 95' PROTEGE 1.8L in my car and it would be a better set-up for turbo. Is it ture? Because i found a 93' B6ZE and a 95' BPD. i'm just looking for something that would take my t/3 setup with no problems......well with minimal mod's to get it to fit.

that bpd... is probably the motor from the protege.

Ok i know no one has ran in to this problem, but i fixed the problem with the gas/oil mixing and my oil was smelling good enough to drink but now this time it smells like fart. I know it sounds funny but is this a problem that my engine is causing or is someone f---ing around with my car ?

that's funny dude.

I think that it has to do with air/fuel ratio...

I have ran into this before lol.


smells like fart.....lol again.

Cool i need a widebnd A/F right?? And how come i keep having an oil leak problem?? I've gone through 2 gaskets in the past week just on the trans oil pan alone.I'm thinking about using silicone instead of gaskets. Help me out here people.
