Audi A4 B7 3.0TDI Quattro S-Line
Hi everyone, first off, sorry if this has been discussed already (which I'm sure it has). I've used the search function but cannot find what I'm looking for.
I want to upgrade my turbo with either a hybrid turbo or a larger turbo. I don't know which route to go down regarding performance and budget. I've had a look on the old interweb and there doesn't seem to be a lot of info on hybrid turbos in particular. My current setup is 2.5" DPF back exhaust (non resonated). Remapped (no proof but its noticeably quicker than factory standard). I have the full Torque App and it runs 1.7 bar of boost at full load (its an 05 model 3.0tdi avant with a factory 204 bhp). I know that hybrids have a good bang for buck but fall flat at top end as the airflow isn't the greatest and i know that a larger turbo will take longer to spool but gives big top end grunt.
I'd be interested to listen to your personal experiences and suggestions to point me in the right direction.
Thanks.
