    Hello, just looking for some help here with my swap! I have a bew tdi engine and I have the oem ac compressor but it fits up on the alternator side of the motor. I know the bhw compressor sits turbo side so that would work out much better for running ac lines and what not. I was thinking I could switch ac compressors and use the rad fan clutch from the bhw as a placeholder for the bew ac compressor. If anyone knows or has done this already any help is appreciated!

    I can understand how this may be a little confusing so if you have questions I’m more than happy to explain further! Thanks in advance

    Seems like this is a TDI-based question and not a Tacoma question. You might have better luck on a TDI-based forum. Very few people have a TDI swapped Tacoma so finding info will be hard.
