Hi there people, well some of you may of noticed that i have been talking about going turbo the last few days! Well i've decided what im going to do is, is to sell the car as a whole and then buy another possibly lower mileage R to turbo
![]()
Main reason for being is because i love my car to bits and i don't think i want to rip it apart when it is such and awesome car and its already extremely quick! it is very close to 400BHP, but i haven't had it dyno'd.
But i have the old ones, 360bhp when the kit was fitted and when i brought the car which was 330bhp which was because the car had a boost leak! Car now has rebuilt charger fully and new induction filter rated to the correct BHP and milltek free flow manifolds and a Milltek Decat, so the car should be easily almost 400bhp i would say with a good custom map.
I've spoke to some tuners and they reckon a good custom map for the manifolds and V power would push it to 400bhp and possibly over!
never had any problems with kit or charger apart from boost leak, the charge runs perfect, belt doesn't slip or screach under strain.
The car has been mapped to run the Decats but not the manifolds, but runs absolutely fine and no error codes. but it is loosing a few ponies not having the manifold mapped in.
The car its self is full spec with up-rated suspension, rear tie arms, upgraded head-unit, pillar boost gauge and rear drop links.
last full Service was at 66k miles and has had the core plugs done under warranty too!
