Twin Turbo Jim Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 Ive got an n/a wth the standard 225BHP. I want to uprate it to about 300BHP but without spend to much. I ve got about £3000 if needed so any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitesupraboy2 Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 save extra 500 - 1k and go for a the NA turbo kit, will take you up to 330bhp starting and once boost raised a bit more bout 400bhp. thats the best way to get to 300bhp with money your talking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prof. Monkey Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 Ive got an n/a wth the standard 225BHP. I want to uprate it to about 300BHP but without spend to much. I ve got about £3000 if needed so any ideas? Get it on the rollers and get a bhp figure to work from.... It will probably be down on power, most are! Mine made 231.8 at the fly recently, thats with some mods done. 300bhp is do-able and to keep it NA, but would cost some money. Like WSB says, the Turbo kit is the way forward....

Prof. Monkey Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 Bolt on and drill the lower block for the oil return feed... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daston Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 plus you'll need some form of S-AFC from what I understand even if you stick with stock injectors. Oh you'll need a bigger fuel pump as well either give Turbo Fit a shout or visit http://www.clubna-t.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
