All of the frenzy and no actual prices..
Performance I think is a given 350bhp+
Reliablity TBC but turbo in std guise is pretty solid unit
Price - uknown
The whole "kit" needs to be defined, costed and priced.....
There will be DIYers who will take it on, and others who will want others to fit it
Charge pipework will have to change, subject to platform it goes on
Turbo intake pipework will have to change
Downpipe will have to change (quattro will be tricky and until done, remains a ? )
Some mods to the shell (chassis dependant) required to clear compressor cover
turbo/manifold will need to be sourced
Oil feed and drain will need to be sourced
Water lines will need to be sourced
Larger injectors
fuel pump likely
I am interested to see how this all tots up and where that pitches it vs full frame garretts for example
What i want to know it how much is Niki going to ring its neck to get the pub figures and then how much are you going to drive away with?
Its not really all that unknown is it. The tfsi crowd might be laughing at our excitement here.
They can make sort of 370-380hp flat out. But then thats bigger displacement, different head (flow quite well too, big ports).
But then this is 100% custom map on prawns, not a generic 'stage2+' like the tfsi folks tend to get.
I think we can expect exactly what the tfsi crowd expect out of theres.
Unless theres been some secret tinkering with this turbo of prawns and its got different spec wheels in it...
the 'generic' on tfsi from the major boys are pretty developed...
my revo2 on my new leon tfsi for example runs pretty sweet, 347bhp/300lbft ~(badger torques )
exact opposite from what I've seen. The maps may well be properly developed, but I've never seen a stage 2+ car that isn't 'broke' when a dyno day comes around
I think it all ended ok. but prob not as planed / hoped

lol - if you are on fb its old news already.........
I've just noticed by looking through old comments...hmmm do you think niki had time for a banzai run or thats safe power?
There are a few more which I will put up tomorrow once Prawn is happy, but yeah flames are good. And it's not loads of meth gay flames either it's a proper pointy fire cracker made by powah.
I was out for the count for two hours, Prawn was giving it **** and I was just dribbling away onto my trousers and snoaring.
Disgusting brute.....Prawn was giving it **** and I was just dribbling away onto my trousers and snoaring.
