Homer Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 Just picking up on a few items: - T61dbb Does anyone actually make these? DBB isn't called for on a T61. - You'll need 650's, 550's won't allow much headroom even at 1.2 bar - Remove HKS FCD, the Emanage can control this - The downpipe will not be available off the shelf, you will need one custom made due to the XS Power manifold - The XS Power manifold will not take an HKS wastgate straight of, it will need some fabrication so factor this into your budget - Add an AFR gauge for the mapping and monitoring - Add an aftermarket FPR (Aeromotive), and fitting kit & pressure gauge After the single is on the following is redundant on your current spec: - HKS induction (You'll need AEM/K&N filter and filter neck instead) - 1st decat Is your aftermarket clutch up to the job of a single, do you know what it is? Whats your overall budget? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geo Posted April 5, 2007 Author Share Posted April 5, 2007 Im getting most of my stuff from one of the members on here, he's going fo a bigger turbo, he's had the t61 on his car, and the spec was running fine on his. I just need little bits and bobs like you said Homer. Yea i got an uprated clutch when it was down at Envy in September. Budget is well lets say going up every minute. pic of single, needs cleaning up mind and brought up to a nice shine. Just picking up on a few items: - T61dbb Does anyone actually make these?

Oh, so its a working kit - well that saves a hell of a lot of the cost (and stress!) of the conversion. I wouldn't consider using 550's though, they will be running very near maximum at 1.2bar, so there's very little room for upgrading. Your money would be best spent on 650's. Also, that HKS filter The huge AEM filter only costs £40 so it's hardly expensive to replace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nic Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 HKS Intercooler and Hard Pipe Kit - You'll need an IC pipe to fit between turbo and IC. HKS Induction Kit - As Darryl said fit a 4"x12" K&N filter HKS FconS Fuel and Ignition Control Unit - This would be better than the emanage, but requires an HKS Pro dealer to map it. Aftermarket Exhaust System with Envy double decat - You'll be able to sell the decats Aftermarket Clutch - Which one? Is it up to handling 500hp? Spec for Single: T61 DBB Water cooled Turbo XS power manifold - I'd personally spend more and get a better quality manifold. 3" downpipe - You'll also need a mid pipe HKS Wastegate - As said you'll need an adapter or need to modify the manifold. You'll also need a screamer pipe. Aeroequip oil lines and water lines Walbro Fuel Pump Injectors 550’s or 650’s - I'd fit SH650A POWER ENTERPRISE 650cc Injectors, straight swap on stock rail. HKS SSQV - You'll need a flange to weld on the IC pipe. Greddy emanage ecu - Spend a bit more and get the Emanage Ultimate if you decide not to use the F-con. HKS Fuel Cut Defender - Not needed I'd also fit: AFR Gauge Fuel Pressure Gauge Fuel Pressure Regulator New Spark Plugs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tDR Posted April 6, 2007 Share Posted April 6, 2007 Just now, to get you out of a bind you could go for that T61 kit and keep the boost low like whatever the wastegate spring default is (ie dont raise it with a boost controller) then when you have some more cash you can sort the fuelling & control side of things. You'd need to do this regardless of going for hybrids or this single kit to get the best out of either - the single kit will give you decent spool and power and will be easily future upgradeable should you want more power, just bolt on a bigger turbo. Another advantage of going single is the labour should be less expensive as fitting this ready to go single kit should be much cheaper / less time consuming than reinstalling the sequential system.

Geo Posted April 6, 2007 Author Share Posted April 6, 2007 Nice one mate, already trying to sort something out. If iv got anymore questions i'll give you a buzz.
