    Bit the bullet stage 2+

    Gutted for you mate, at least it happened there and then not after you'd driven 20 miles down the road, i personally would have gone for the cheaper second hand turbo as i'm pretty sure any warranty on the turbo would be void with the modifications anyway. I'm planning on doing the whole nothing...

    Ibiza vs Polycharged Zaino Z2

    Amazing work. I used to do a similar thing to mine beofre i had the big turbo now the back is black within 10mins of driving so i kind of lost faith. The car looks amazing I was just thinking how smooth it would look with no side strips have you photoshoped it with them off? I think that...

Are you a personal friend of his? I know him pretty well we did a max power photoshoot together a while back but i have lost...

    Diesel Power 1/4 Mile Times 5/7/09 GTI Summer festival

    the way the pd150 hybrid works is a progressive curve which goes up then tails off at the end. therefore by 4500 rpm most power is lost and although it ill rev to just over 5krpm there is no point other than the nice sound my miltek makes lol yea i'm still on standard injectors jonjay i'm just...

    1.9 tdi cupra or 1.8 20v t cupra

    Diesel all the way. Cheaper tax/insurance and better economy and because of the great torque these engines produce it feels just as fast as the 1.8t anyway. oh and theres the average life expectancy which is alot higher in diesel's which means should have better resale value aswell >:-) But...

    Black Smoke!

    you shouldn't actually have to have a map change for the egr replacement valve. I changed mine after i had already had the big turbo fitted and i didn't change the map for about 2 months. in terms of gains your really not going to notice much of a difference but it's more about not chucking the...
