Hi, I hope i'm posting in the correct section.
A friend of mine drives the above car and among other issues has a boost problem. I have run vagcom which advised of an over boost issue. Whilst checking to determine the operating pressure of the actuator, it appeared to operate in reverse to one...
Is the 0.5mm clearance the total diameter increase in the housing or the distance from each blade to the wall ie diameter increased by 1mm oversized overall.
At least now the K04 1.8T hybrid can realise the potential of its compressor wheel like its bigger 2.0T TFSI bigger brother. This is a big step up and great to see the whp going past 320bhp too. I know i'll be shot for even thinking it but is 400 bhp that ridiculous a possibility.
Unfortunately mines a blueflame where the pipe enters the flange. I did consider getting it built up with a heavy weld and grind it away with a die grinder, the adapter plate will ad volume though.
Bill, BBT, anyone fancy making an adapter plate like the tapered ones used for throttle boddies on the various intake manifolds but only this time used for tapering the exhaust housing in a ko4 turbo to fit the smaller typical 3 inch down pipe. Ie 83mm to 73mm (ported turbine exit on exhaust...
I'm failing to keep up with BBT. I didn't realise there were two versions of the billet K04 wheel. You have to make exceptions for me i'm a seat man after all.
darn it, I hate being wrong LOL. Superb results and a credit to BBT and the mapping maestro Bill. Out of curiosity how many pounds of flow is the billet wheel rated at. I'm shocked at how restrictive the stock turbine is and how much efficiency is being lost through the turbine bottle neck. It...
Am I right in understanding that you have an uprated turbine but stock sized compressor wheel. Hmm that sounds back to front. Good Luck, i'm sure Bill will get the most out of it regardless.
Hi NHN, could you advise me please how to carry out the basic setting as I drive a seat leon Cupra R (1ML) and have the 01435 code... implausible signal. I've fitted a new brake light switch to no avail (lights work fine) and have checked the pressure using vagcom ABS measuring block channel 5...
That's a fair point and having zero track experience I can't comment but anyone tracking one of these manifolds is expecting too much irrespective of the version it is. The V2 and V3 are good manifold designs its just unforgivable they don't match the effort they put into manufacture with the...
If you research the properties of the stainless used you can see that a manifold running at 800 degs is many times stronger than one running at 950 say. Too many people run these past 900 degs with no consideration for the massive expansion that takes place. That and the fact its chinese is why...
