vf34

Right, I'm guessing that these are resistors to adjust the boost so that the ecu reads ok. Now these resistors got burnt (this picture was before). I have taken these out, and as soon as i get to about 3,500 revs, the car goes into limp mode. What resistors do I need? Can I get a variable...

I have an ibiza cupra with an ihi vf34 that is purely a track car and the odd summer night out, i'm just wondering what oil people are running in there higher powered 20vt's ? I have done a search and cant find anything of any relevence tbh Cheers Mark

My Ibiza currently has an IHI VF34 .20 on it and is producing around 360bhp at 1.6 bar (According to Jabbas rolling road). As this is a bit much for the standard internals I'm planning on fitting new rods and pistons... and whilst I'm there I might as well get the engine bored out to 1.9 litres...

Hi Guys and Gals..ive a question, i want to upgrade the turbo on my 2001 ibiza cupra (really gota post sum pics) i was looking for a big jump, not just goin to upgrade to the Cupra R turbo, i know that gives about 40bhp more..but i want 70 or 80 more from it. Im told that can be done with a...

OK so the original plan was to go Hybrid K03S (Turbo Dynamics MD445) with all the goodies (inc JBS tubular mani and water/meth injection) to reach a 280-290 BHP figure. I've pretty much bought everything I need to do this conversion now (including the turbo) but the more I read the more I...

my car has started smoking a lot, and will not boost above 0 PSI. at first i thought internals, but with the help of Philw it now looks its my turbo as theres a fair bit of oil in the outlet, and today i removed the intake and there doesnt seem to be any play in the shaft, but again there is...

Hi people Hope you can help I drove my car (53 plate 1.8 20v leon with jabbasport ihi vf34 turbo upgrade) pretty hard and the turbo seemed to jam and the boost gauge would not go past 0. This was quite annoying because the last one only went 2 months ago when i started hearing a whistling...

ok I bought the cupra a month or two ago as a bit of a project, and luckily ive been looking at it that way as its costing a fortune at the mo! Anyway it felt not a massive amount faster than my k03s & as some of you may know i made a thread a while ago about the lack of turbo noise... Ok...

anybody had trouble with the exhaust housing warping etc? as the exhaust is blowing quite badly on the ibiza and cant seem to find where its blowing from. But heard the vf34 is prone for this or housing cracking? if so whats the more likely cause and how hard to remove exhaust and...

Okay, thought I'd post a few pics of day one of my turbo conversion. For the record my hands are killing me. Damn these cars with their fiddly turbos fitted in silly tight spaces. Any ways, thought you might like to see proof of my spanner time. The kit: The working environment (looks...

If I was to buy this... http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/showthread.php?t=148676 What kind of power will I be looking at? And also what else would I need bar a remap?

I've been trying to find a compressor map for the vf34/20 - can anyone point me in the right direction? Ta Raf

I'm going to be swopping out my charged VR lump for a 1.8T over the next few months. Car is Mk3 Golf VR6. I'm looking on advice for the best route to go when chosing the turbo. I'll be using an AUQ head and AUM bottom end with DTA managament. I'm looking for a sustainable 330-350hp...

I am getting closer to deciding on a big turbo for my '01.5 VW Golf 1.8T. I'm currently deciding between a JabbaSport manifold & VF34 turbo -or- a GT28RS turbo with some other manifold. I'd like to see what the power curves look like for the VF34 on the 1.8T. I've searched, but mostly found...

I RECENTLY FITTED A VF34 ON MY LCR BUT UNTIL I HAVE THE SOFTWARE SORTED I RUN THE STOCK INJECTORS WITH REVO STAGE 1. I HAVE BYPASSED THE N75, WHICH IS PLUGGED OF COURSE ,TO AVOID THE OVERBOOST AND I CONTROL THE PRESSURE WITH A MBC. THE PROBLEM IS THAT WITH THE MBC COMPLETELY CLOSED I SHOULD...
