Well im in trouble...
« on: 09 April 2011, 21:43 »
As always just after payday the mrs says to me to not spend any more money on the bloody cars.. so as a man i agree knowing full well im still going to buy parts..

Well it started with loads of small purchases spray paint for my mk2 etc...

And then i just decided to buy myself a stage 2 hybrid turbo for my 150pd with a large bore downpipe included.. all for the lovely sum of £400 delivered.. Has only done 3000miles apparently but will get it checked by a professional before fitting to make sure its all tip top..

This is the stage 2 by turbo dynamics and they rate it good for 240 to 260bhp  :cool: :cool: which should be a lot of fun.. I want to install it ASAP but i tihnk i will hold off as its still running standard brakes and i think i killed them a couple of weeks back  :grin: :grin: Roll on Porsche brakes  :cool:

After fitting it will be taken up to RTech for a custom stage2 map  :evil: :evil:

Watch this space !!!!

Turbo may be rated for 240 but your injectors wont get you anywhere near it

Have a read of aRD and bobby singhs projects :wink:

 :grin: :grin: Should be fun when its all up and running.. Wana get it to run a safe 240/250bhp.. thats the most you can get out of the cam theres no more duration after that... then you need forged rods and a bigger cam etc so not worth the hastle... just gona be good dusting you 1.8t's off  :grin: :grin:

Rhys been speaking to Bobby Singh all morning and he says the injectors are good for 225/230bhp... and he recommends changing them for Race 783cc ones.. Only downside these injectors are £650 just for parts before fitting plus you need new bolts etc... Looking at like £800 for injectors fitted  :shocked: :shocked:

Need to think a new strategy or earn some more money lol
