How are these going to compare to the bbt hybrid?

We do things very differently and utilize Genuine components for the most part, I think you can see these are quality upgrades of a different type.

Not im not really wanting to compare or be drawn into please. You can do that yourself.
I really don't follow what Dan does but wish well, I try focus on our parts.
 
Can you list some specs and prices?

Thanks!

Si,

Do you sell only the adapter for tfsi turbos???
Click to expand...

As I told you on Facebook on TTE page we do not. We do not use a adapter. We CNC mill the Origanal exhaust manifold and our mounting hardware works with this modification.

If you was to send in your k04-064 we would modify and supply our hardware to make it either TTE350,370,390

For prices look at our page on this forum for recon/upgrade price for each stage
 
audi upgrades
Maybe try XT Motorsport as they sell adapter plates of good quality
 
Then you need send your turbo to us for recondition and it will change into TTE350

Price is 537.14 Euro inc vat

Hey

I don't actually have as yet. Few partners that have, haven't as yet shared. (I will chase tomorrow)

I'm actually looking forward to results my self as our lower spec unit TTE300 makes 330-340hp with relatively low boost levels. RTECH Only few days ago was testing TTE300 on suspect motor and was doing 330Hp and 330-40 ft-lbs limited (from memory) at 1.45 bar. Said did this easy and if let, it see 390ftbls ! Massive area/volume of power

So really TTE340 looking set for some good results over time.

Yes our units do cost more than some but are hand made in Germany, in-house and using Genuine housings, components and balanced to much higher standard.

Yes but we cant compete with price or wish too, as BBT use china made copy components and BBT is 1 guy and only part time with no premises, so little overheads so on.

So really very different. We focus on Genuine components and are miles apart in price to copy items.

I'm not saying are bad, just not the same to directly compare.

Also more to come yet from TTE300 as RTECH stated.

From what I understand Borg Warner has manufacturing facilities in China too... Garrett also have components made in China

Granted there are some chinese made items that are not made to exacting tolerances but just because items are made in China doesn't make them any more or less effective if made right and put together well...

<tuffty/>
 
Sure BorgWarner Does manufacture in china as well as many other country's around the world but under their control in a BorgWarner factory...

Put it this way. Is a copy BBS Wheel same as real Genuine BBS... Both work, both look same but are different prices.
 
Depends if its made to exacting tolerances using decent grade material...

Genuine made fails just as much as the copy stuff... seen more than my fair share of cracked genuine K04 housings...

<tuffty/>
 
Ok if you say so... In our experience total opposite...And ive seen far more copy stuff fails as the quality control is just not there, remember we recon/repair many turbos so see it all.. and if was as good or better id be doing...

Big enough market for all really, and good there's option for all budgets.

(Please I don't wish to have a confrontation with BBT or his followers or supporters, he has a good rep and his turbos get results! I'm not interested to take his business either)

Yes , believe it or not the bearing i use was designed by myself...

The housings might look the same but you only need to know what the limitations of the stock ones are to know why i redesigned them! Compressor housings are made without the groove so you can run larger wheels without the need of special billet adaptors,

Turbine housings are made with the porting already incorporated , the wastegate port port to prevent creep, and most importantly the area where cracks develope due to heat hot spots redesigned so help prevent cracking, the outlet side has been opened to help gas flow and the lump that sits inside reduced, all of which have proved to work! So whilst it may be a copy part its actually been redesigned to be better than the part it replaced.

K03 compressor housings. Made with large inlets to support larger wheel. K300 uses k04 compressor cover modified for proven better flow.

K04 hybrid compressor wheel 7+7 a wheel i designed which was the first to not surge on the k04 hybrid, something the 2283 compressor from the k04 tfsi does very happily! No benefit in oem there then.

As for the turbines. Well when you consider a genuine tfsi k04 is around £150 and the ones i use are cheaper but still made of inconel 713c metal and the only ones i have had fail have been on cars running antilag ( 5 to be precise) then there is little comparision to be made.

I make what i make, i make them well, they perform! If you need to distance yourself by putting down the small guy then please do, but considering you used to work for loba and they used genuine parts i would have thought spinning that line might be a risky!

OK guys, I'm going to have to step in here, lets not waste this perfectly good thread on whose better than whose etc.

The information in this thread is too good for me to lock the thread, so either discuss between yourselves via PM or start another thread!

Cheers.

Joe

Performance vs price

Folks will vote with their wallets

I wager the cheaper alternatives will sell larger qty on old 1.8t installs for majority for cost vs car cost obvious reasons. Where there is no discernible performance difference to segregate them, the ££ will be the decider.

each to their own.
