junkie

Can be done but would be complicated.

Getting better matey. Already at warp 10 lol :lol:

Well the Jabba intercooler was designed on my car at pro alloy and its been designed to run with all force applications. Albeit a new piece was needed to extend to the turbo for the turbo inlet. g60dave blew 2 g-laders so converted ti IHI but he is going to be progressing as far as i know with the tuning. Cost effective wise build the engine to be strong, then as far as drive shafts go etc just do something about them when they let go.

1 at a time leons really cant keep up now, its k for you 2 but its confusing the hell out of me..... :roll:

Well dont know but but they not been replaced yet and both still standard and not broke yet. And i cant help it but i drive hard most places. Suspect they will wear quicker tho but thats what happens you improve something and it affects something else quicker.

Beat me to it. Standard bumper with something bonded on and all smoothed out as well as top edges modified to be rounder.

Sweet, if I make it this year, might get a run against you. :lol: Though knowing my past track record something will break just before it!! :lol: :lol: :cry: Hopefully mate? Not sure what i want from it really, i know its never gonna do the 1/4 record just want respectable times. If it did the 13's is that respectable and iv never done it before.

The things we never have enough of!

Yes was going to do the diff in a seat ibiza box but it went t**s up at the last minute. Hoping to be at inters and def gonna sprint, just got to be better than last year. Was hoping to sprint last year but had picked the car up the from Jabba the thursday night before inters with newly converted engine and didnt want to push it too much as it was kind of still in development. Sounds like our cars are gonna be very similar generally all round.

lol yes i was just going to sat that. Ur the gonna turbo right? Its on FK Konigsport silverlines bout 50mm drop Poly bushes everywhere Nuespeed anti roll bars front and rear 25mm.

I had a 2.0 16v corrado box with Quaife Diff in it up until recently, Ratios were fairly short and it was fairly quick through gears. I now have a Gemini short ratio 6 speed with Quaife diff :lol: 8) Havent had a chance to give it a proper hard run before taking it off the road but with the driving I did it felt nice. Nice whats the cost on those? Thats the problem with mine still got crappy G60 box and diff. Need longer gears to really get the most from it now and diff to help corner traction its so good now but could do with a little more.

Not as yet up the 1/4 but hoping to make 1 of the santa pod days in april all depends on money as i go away wknd before the 1st and just come back on the other i think. Bearing in mind i have a weight penalty of carrying a 12"sub and 2 huge amps plus loads of dynamat but its still should give respectable times. Kills most imprezas only 1 has got me and that was stupidly quick must av been around 400bhp guessing. They all try but they are proper gutted when they cant get in front. Kept side by side with an evo fq-340. Cossies easy, porsches dont try when i see them they just think i dont need to seen as though mine looks pretty standard. Various others but cant really remember them all. Not saying its the quickest car i know people have beter but for most stuff out there it can be quicker than, and keeps up with a lot of more exotic cars.

How about 17's but in lightweight form? What would the difference be then? Lightweight 17's v Normal 16's? If they were to be the same weight you could still have crisp turn in with the 40 profile, but still the ride would still suffer sidewall wise. All depends on what style of driving you want to do the most. As when at speed its gonna generally be a lot more comfortable anyway.

well in all honesty i cant remember where the power peaked at now but i shall be getting a new dynoplot back this wknd hopefully. Water injection has made it a lot smoother due to obviously running a lot cooler. Doubt it will be ruined with those mods even if you lose some low down power its gonna pull a lot harder and i mean alot when it does pull. Which i can say for sure will be a lot more enjoyeble. End of the day i would rather have a drive that i can potter around in off boost then pull really hard and for long into the revs when i floor it, rather than something that pulls hard low down then runs out of steam if you know what i mean. Just like the feel of seemingly endless pull and acceleration, even when doing 120 on my private test track then flooring it, it still pulls strong and pushes you into the seat quite noticeably.

Thats gonna be solid and powerful mate. Using Greddy profec b spec controller on mine with water/methanol injection set to spray at 10psi and it works a treat with pro alloy intercooler. Keep posted on what power it makes very interested. What was the lag like on the T3?

Believe you have 440cc then mate as mine are green but as you say a different shade. They will be well upto the job. All i can say is when its on the rollers you will find out then and if they are not big enough then you wont be ble to run as much boost. If you have steel rods then already why dont you set it to run 2bar and see how it goes bhp wise. If you have electronic boost controller with 2 settings you dont have to run it like that prmanently??? Sounds interesting your engine mate.

Mine is a sunroof fix as i dont have the parts and as i understand from a thread that its the water guide rails i think? Its now got scratches on my sunroof.

Maybe wrong but as i remember 440cc are good for around 350bhp. Sorry not sure either on yours. What colour are they?

Well the rods need changing to forged as they can only take 1.5-6 bar then its bent rod through block time. Currently 440cc injectors but not sure when it eventually goes to 2bar.

Another sunroof fix here Jay. If you can put up rough prices for some of the more common jobs that would be good, as we all know our c's come with too many common stupid design faults. Would be worth stickying if you can get prices up mate.

Have a Garrett T3 conversion on a G60 lump in my mk2 golf. Made 215bhp @12psi last time on the rollers. What boost is yours running to make 309bhp?? Its at 22PSI so far but going to go for 30PSI in the future to see what it can do then. Should be proper fun then.

Not trying to persuade you mate lol just giving you some info as requested. What you trying to achieve eventually sounds like its gonna be a big spec?

^^^^^^ As he said. Out of curiosity how many on here have this conversion? I know Jabba have done more than the 2 on here myself and g60dave but not sure whether more c's or the goof's.

No Jabbasport custom map on standard management all seems k. Just getting upgrade to map properly above 6.8k to 7.6k.

Yes exhaust manifold to bolt the turbo onto then a single downpipe for exhaust gasses to escspe out to exhaust. Only 2.5" downpipe as i remember i think as bit tight behind there.
