hi sorry to hijack your thread - how much does the gt28rs conversion cost? Also if anyone knows could you tell me the price of an IHI conversion on an ibiza - from standard ibiza to finished IHI? and same for an AM04?

Who's doing the work? Star Performance?

I was looking into the GT2X kit and GT28RS kit, however this time i'm not going to jump the gun and run into it. I'm also looking into the GT2871R as well as the turbo that Bill Brockbank uses.

If things go to plan i may be going the GT2871R route, will also have Stage 3 Clutch plus LSD.

If i'm doing it, i'll be doing it right so it'll be getting internal work. If i'm just going to limit boost I may aswell go for an IHI turbo.

Pete - Why spend all that money then have REVO map it? I'd atleast want a custom map on a big turbo.

Pete - Personally I think that a custom map would benefit you more, however if it's what he uses and he's given you a good price (£5k inc Brakes, Exhaust and CAT) stick with him you could always change it at a later date.

Pdcupra... and the rest. Usually just for an ATP GT28RS kit you'd pay £4k thats if you already have an exhaust, filter, dv, etc.

David - Sure lol, same for yours as you know I'm eager to see what the AM04 like too. :D

Big boys toys quoted me £3500 which included the GT28RS, Clutch & Flywheel, Injectors, Highflow manifold, Maf & Labour.

I think for 5k if you getting brakes and exhaust system etc etc plus i'm guessing some upgrade on the suspension!!! then thats not bad!
