    Updated brakes required for turbo conversion?

    Defiantly track days along with some road use. Don't need it to commute so just a fun car if I'm honest.

    Updated brakes required for turbo conversion?

    I've got Engine Dynamics fitting it for me, so I trust this issue wouldn't be too much of a problem. But will keep an eye just incase. Thanks

    Updated brakes required for turbo conversion?

    Had them on my old Volvo. Found they kick off a lot of dust. Have seen people mention DS1.1s?

    Updated brakes required for turbo conversion?

    That's on the list along with discs. Just need to do a bit of searching to see what's best.

    Updated brakes required for turbo conversion?

    I'm having a turbo installed and probably have not thought about a minor problem. Are the current brakes good enough for a turbo? Or does the calipers need upgrading? It's only a low pressure but seeing as I've not had a go in one it's difficult to tell. Already have braided lines which will...

    172 cup rolling road with graph@174 bhp

    Why do you think that was? Larger inlets?

    172 cup rolling road with graph@174 bhp

    I was asking as most long term members would of seen different figures over the years at different mileage, hence why I asked the question. The main reason was to see if it's worth upgrading parts or not. Yes it's a figure but is it a good figure! I have my answer.

    172 cup rolling road with graph@174 bhp

    Confused with lightweight alloys

    How much difference is there with weight? Is it worth while change? How much would I be expecting to pay for a secondhand or new set? Thanks for the reply!

    Confused with lightweight alloys

    Firstly sorry about the question but don't know what would be best. Im looking for a lightweight wheel to be very similar looking as the 172 cup alloys. What I'm not sure about is size? I'm reading 15" but would the size effect the speedo / mileage? Also I see you can select the "off set". What...

    RS stamped difference over matched inlets

    Right. I'm going to put this to the test. Where can I take my car (live in Farnborough. Hants) where I can get a reliable RR test. Obviously I'll need to take the car away change manifolds and go again so is there any factors needing to be taken into account? Temp? Etc.. Unless someone has done...

    RS stamped difference over matched inlets

    Well its misrepresentation in my book regardless of sale. If there is a gain then it's fine but no gain, then there's a problem. I'll roll road mine and see what happens. I understand these are very limited to gains unless big money spent which would not really be worth it to most owners. Thanks
