Hello all, this week I had a new OEM K04 turbo installed, and fortunnately it solved all my problems. While the car was at the workshop I had them build a new CAI on a design of mine. Here are some pics: BEFORE AFTER The air filter has the correct flow rating for...

So what do you all think of the Forge Twintake when opposed to the ITG? It seems to me that they have solved both the cold air supply problem, and the fact that enclosed filters were getting maxed out...

Hello Alex, thank you for replying to my thread. Wanted to ask you if the 3071 is a straight forward replacement with its own manifold, or what is the job to install it? Cheers, AJ

Sounds great Alex, I was just on the phone with a friend of mine that works at Revo. We are taking in to account the possibility of a 3071 on stock internals... What are your figures on 0-60 now?

How many of you are running Revo 2+ on full stock turbo? Issues?

Nobody knows where to source a lower temperature thermostat for the S3 8P?

I don't know if a full spec Stage 2+ could actually get under 4.8 seconds...

I understand, must be because UK is a much cooler place... How are you finding the turbo kit? Are you running on stock internals?

What is the 0-60 acceleration figure on Revo 2+?

In hot days or simply when in heavy traffic my 'BHZ' S3 suffers some serous heat soak. I imagine other owners of the same car can tesdtify, right? Was looking in to thermostats, searching for cooler-opening ones, but I found none. The only part I came across is from Neuspeed, but is made for...

Let's see what TD says. If it takes it, I will hit the road and drive up there, but I want the car fixed for good.

I am sorry to hear your bad luck Akash, really unbelievable! Usually I follow the rule 'spend more, spend once'. Probably this would have saved you a Lot of money... My car has only prime new components, Bardhal syntetic oil changed every 3-5.000Km max, so the spark plugs. The Gt30.. would...

Quite right. I am also in a good position to challenge them: they know I am about to build an Evo X, with their turbo. For real, I think that If they will provide me with a new part I will already be very surprised... I just can't continue loosing time, stress and money for other people's mistakes.

That is quite right, the fitting will set me back of at least 500 Euro... Don't know if to ask for just a standard turbo, or another hybrid.
