Anyone here turbo?
« on: 18 August 2011, 00:23 »
I seen the kits on eBay and they seem really really cheap, I'm all for you get what you pay for but can anyone tell me if it's a possible place to start and upgrade certain items eventually along the way?

How do you go about changing compression?

1 other question, where do most people put their
Intercoolers?

No such thing as a cheap conversion, better to fit a 1.8t

Some are side mounted plus you can get custom side mounts that flow and cool the same as a front mount.

Water/Meth injection is also an option to increase cooling :wink:
