anyone??
im assuming the kit is all bolt on, not cutting filing etc...
how long would it take to fit??
Its still alot of money really for the gain. get a diesel and get it remapped. lol only cost me £340 and gained 60HP. My golf is running at 190HP with 420Nm!! lol
172/182 = 1,110kg
172 Cup = 1,011kg
Trophy = 1,090kg

Depends on how much fuel in the tank also i think..
1 liter = +-1kg
LOL diy turbo installation.If you had to get some one to fit and fettle it you'd be nearly up to Ktec price.
It seems ludaprix aint satisfied with his cam conversion lol .How could he be? The discernible gain from that conversion, although noticeable wont be mind blowing. I'd say to him, go for the balls out foxon jobbie, if he has the nerve. Your single body will then be redundant, but Andy will take that in account in the final reckoning. lol
not really mate, im very satisfied with it but am getting used to the power now. i wanted to keep my air con so went for the single body. im jus currently contemplating the idea of adding to what i have. i'd rather not have itb's still jus because i want my a/c, this turbo kit seems ideal as you still get to keep the a/c etc.
maybe stupid question, but hos did the dumpvalve sounded?
Dan the english weather isn't exactly tropical you poof!

They do nothing anyway. definately not runnin 7psi! they sound s**t imo. and usually just leak boost. they only do something when runnin big power.

yes and then only when running a recirculating one. They run the overpressure back into the system to keep the turbo running between gears i thought.
The open one just throws it out thus "leaking" thrust ?
Open ones are there only to let people know you've got a spinner in there

pretty cool
If anyone is thinking of buying it I would come and have a look at my car first.
I am selling a car arguably worth 8000-9000 standard with a proper turbo conversion for £3000.....
what car?
can i buy it for spares lolwhat car?
Black Gold 182 with both cup packs.

what a 182 turbo???
what a 182 turbo???
yes a 182 turbo off for a remap on thursday....what power should i have? ...pick a number....lol
Only warently on the parts you've chnaged any anything that they can blame for the failure.ive still got one years warranty left, so they would loose all warranty
I'd bet the internals (with stock fuel) as said earlier are the limiting factor.Seems to be lots of people with there own oppinions. I am saving every penny i have for this kit. Would like to no what the turbo is cable of in terms or PSI for future upgrading?
The box isn't that strong I've known loads break under normal power never mind extra power the box is officaly at its warently limit.Seems like a great value kit for a realistic price, tired of listening to those who bleat on about non existent clutch/gearbox issues, 220bhp in the RS is perfect for the road.
But your has head work as well doens't it after all bost just get by the restriction and you have less restriction as such.sounds ok but id rather do it proper to start with tbh.
mine s only 9psi 250bhp and im running uprated forged internals lol.
oe gearbox.
helix padel clutch.
1 liter is about 0.7 of a KG.Depends on how much fuel in the tank also i think..
1 liter = +-1kg
But its enough the box is at its limit not saing it definatly going to go but there a reason we have no more torque. Renault warently state its at its limit which what they would cover and they know more than us.i fancy one but ill wait to here of a more definative test. my only concern is gearbox and clutch. other than that i cant really see there bein a problem. it hardly any boost!
Would it be possible to have the gearbox rebuilt using upgraded components to cope with the extra power?
Probably cost a fortune though! Just a thought.
