Jake Posted September 22, 2007 Share Posted September 22, 2007 OK, well no - you're just about at the limit of the stock turbos and fuel injectors (well actually you're past the limit of the stock injectors but that's another debate) 418bhp is a very respectable figure, you should be happy with that. Do you know what the power was at the wheels? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grahamc Posted September 22, 2007 Share Posted September 22, 2007 I have hit 451bhp on hybrids, with a lot of supporting mods, like fueiling, fmic, ecu, etc Is your car a jspec or uk spec? jspec the fueling is going to limit you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraD06 Posted September 23, 2007 Author Share Posted September 23, 2007 Mines a jap spec, got 51000 miles on the clock n its always serviced every year and oil changes n things like that r always done regulary, just want to know what the most the standard engine, gearbox etc will take? been told the stock turbos are at there limit with 18psi so was wondering what way 2 go next.

tDR Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 Go single Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraD06 Posted September 23, 2007 Author Share Posted September 23, 2007 im interested in the single, but do you get loads of lag, i like the twin set up cuz you pull away quick then hav the option to give it even more or just cruise, if you drop down a gear when just cruising with a single turbo is the power almost instant or does it take a while?

tDR Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 Depends on your turbo choice - the trade off is always response vs. outright power. There are singles which will give you more power and better response than the stock TT's. There are also singles that will give you 900bhp but will take ages to respond. Regardless, you won't find a better twin setup than stock if response is your concern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grahamc Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 stock engine is good for around 600bhp gearbox more than that power, depends on what you want! What do you want? What is your budget? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraD06 Posted September 23, 2007 Author Share Posted September 23, 2007 i want more responsive power, n ive heard if you go single some people run Nos to get it going ( not sure if thats just track use) i want around the 550-600 mark unless any1 runs this kind of power n thinks its to much to handle as a daily driver, budget around £2000-£3000 for now if thats not enough ill wait till next year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt H Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 2-3k wont get you 550/600 bhp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt H Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 If you go for bigger injectors, say uk spec 550's, hybrid turbos and a piggy back ecu you should get around 450 BHP for your budget, but if you want serious power, then your looking at alot more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraD06 Posted September 23, 2007 Author Share Posted September 23, 2007 well im already running 418bhp and its more than enough to c off most cars that try and race, just wondered if there was other things you can do without going single option. how much did you spend after the basic upgrades eg fmic boost controller, de-cat, fuel pump etc to get to 520 and are you running a single set up on urs?

grahamc Posted September 23, 2007 Share Posted September 23, 2007 the other things to consider, are fueling, ecu, cams, water/methanol injection, nos... then single. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
