how much power?

[mr2daj]

how much power would u guys think i would have? i know rolling road is the only way but just an estimate.

standard turbo (i think)
mines ecu (runs a bar of boost)
3 in downpipe
hks filter
nur spec exhaust
100mm smic
fidanza flywheel

think thats about it i think. any ideas?

edit: its a rev3
edit again: runs 1.2 bar of boost

I reckon people would need to know which revision of turbo you've got first

[Steve Horrocks]

280ish more than likely i'd guess.

[mr2daj]

seems a little conservative. isnt that only 40bhp increase? seems much much mucch faster than any standard 1 i have driven. and i have driven quite a few.

[rev2rich]

hum if it is a rev2 turbo thinking .... over 300bhp at fly about 250hp at wheels. I would be happy with that

[Steve Horrocks]

You keep adding edits! Lol

Might see 300 then. On a cold day. obviously all depends on what dyno you're going to check it on & how much they want to please you. I'm still 290ish on a real dyno.

[mr2daj]

i know sorry.. rev 3 running 1.2 bar. tbh i was thinking around 300ish. how far can you go on stock block and turbo?

[Steve Horrocks]

Block wise, no real power limit but 'some' do crack. Pistons are first weak spot so if aiming for more than 1.3bar then advisable to go forged. Stock turbo will be running out of puff by 1.2 so that's about your realistic limits but obviously would run higher, but you offset any power gains but creating heat. When you start flowing ct turbo's they become giant hairdryers!!!

i know some one with a buddyclub exhaust,apexi air filter greddy sidemount and apexi boost controller running 1.2 bar. rolling roaded at 311bhp (fly)
so souldn't be far off ,just depends on the intercooler !!!

[mr2daj]

coool that sounds more like it. has he got any aftermarket engine management on that?

[Rev 3 Kris]

I was running 1.5bar on td0518g making 300@wheels on my standard block for about 3 years and it was fine so it can take a bit of power it was running an apexi power fc engine management , ive just stripped it 2 weeks ago and only thing it had was a few pits on piston 2
