Right, getting to the stage of thinking about things to do after the wedding (and deposit for house sorted) and wondering whether to go BT or whether it's possible/worth hybrid'ing my turbo.
Car's a 2001 Leon Cupra 180 (petrol) with the K03s turbo - currently mapped and running at 215bhp/250lb/ft - would ideally like something in the 280-300bhp range - nice and driveable being the main thing.
Is it better going straight for a BT, or is it possible to hybrid the K03s (not sure what part of the K03s is the main restriction that limits it to 240bhp) or would sticking a K04 be a better bet?
Assuming by keeping the K03s as a hybrid I'd be able to keep the manifold as well, just need a new DP/exhaust for best performance, and a FMIC will definitely be on the list no matter what I do.
Thoughts/comments/ideas would be great - not something I'd probably be able to do for at least another year, but would be good knowing options and start looking out for the bits needed.
Cheers!
