looking good, 2010 could be an interesting year!

this should be an idea. i was talking to a tall guy from JBS for a while at Audi International. The new turbo kit looks like a good option too.

Gotta be a groupbuy!

how much is this roughly going to cost any1 hazard a guess

6-7k

I heard around £6k when I was up at JBS a couple of weeks ago

so is this a supercharger

and will be wanting this mod for next year

Form an orderly queue!

Link to stage one (350bhp) >>> Here - £5,500.00

Link to stage two (400bhp) >>> Here - £6,695.07

Stage 2 Please next year some time!!

Further to the above post:

Here at JBS we have been working in relative secrecy on a Rotex Mk5 chassis kit.. (A3 TT etc) these supercharger kits complement our already extensive range of forced induction components for the 3.2 24v V6. JBS now offer both a turbo and supercharger kit for the Mk5 platform.

These JBS developed kits RETAIN the factory air conditioning, washer bottle etc and leaves the engine bay looking relatively standard. With an OEM belt tensioned system belt slippage is only a problem for the competitors…

There will be 2 stages, both have lower compression ratio using a JBS Stainless steel head spacer gasket lowering compression to 9:1

Stage 1 is none intercooled version and will produce 350bhp.

Stage 2 is an intercooled version with higher boost levels and will produce 400bhp

We have custom designed a 10L (500bhp capable) intercooler that will fit the Mk5 chassis range with minimal trimming to bumper rail.

Our own mk5 is currently having the Stage 1 final development kit fitted. With the Stage 2 intercooled version to follow.

Below are the approximate prices and brief breakdown on parts included:


STAGE 1 - 350bhp

Rotrex supercharger, supercharger bracket, pulley, Setrab oil cooler, lines and reservoir
JBS boost and intake circuits
JBS head spacer gasket kit for lower compression
Large diverter valve
550cc Injectors
Spark Plugs
Oil, Oil Filter, Coolant
Custom-Code Phase 3 tuning
Labour for installation

Approximate price including VAT and all of the above £5,500.00

The above Stage 1 kit has been designed to work in collaboration with the Milltek cat-back performance exhaust system and OEM downpipe and CAT’s.


STAGE 2 - 400bhp

Rotrex supercharger, supercharger bracket, pulley, Setrab oil cooler, lines and reservoir
JBS boost and intake circuits

Customers are welcome to demo passenger rides in our Stage 1 demo Mk5 R32, approximately 4 weeks after that it will receive the STG2 kit and again will be available for demo rides.

To answer some of your questions, the reason why we are now offering supercharger kits for the Mk5 is because: We have already developed, designed, built and tested the turbo kits for the Mk5 chassis and waiting on our batches of 20 turbo exhaust manifolds to be completed. In this mean time we have started building our supercharger kits as many people still ask us for supercharger kit, rather than turbo kit. If there is a popular demand we try to supply!

We also stand to claim that the Custom-Code software is the most sophisticated, well tuned, heavily researched and developed software for the Mk4/Mk5 R32 engines be is naturally aspirated or forced induction.

For example, we are able to activate the turbo speed sensor for monitoring the turbine shaft speeds when tuning large turbo kits, this is also used by VW in their own development/tuning process for factory spec vehicles.


As with our turbo kits, our supercharger kit are only available for installation at JBS Auto Designs and will not be for sale in kit format.

More information and pictures soon to follow.

Kind Regards

JBS Team
