I'm going for AM04, sent the money over to Adam & Mike last week so should have the turbo within the next few weeks. Was a large toss up between AM04, GT2X... hopefully i've made a wise choice, once you get into the 270bhp bracket there is no right or wrong choice it just depends how far you want to go.

Knew you were trying GT2X so thought why not give AM04 a go, Robdon had good things to say about his Star K04 Hybrid.

Nice one, i was gonna go down the AM04 route, seems like a good setup, i just wanted to try something new that hadn't been done on a ibiza much, not that AM04 is common. Hope it goes well for you mate. Keep us posted with your thoughts on it when its fitted and mapped.

Yes i am still running the standard fuel pump at moment, will change it at some point though.

can you post the part no's for the following bosch made items you used please matt, as you can see from my signature i work for bosch so i should be able to pick up these items stupidly cheap

4 bar fpr
s3 maf
s3 injectors

do you reckon its possible to use a standard s3 or leon tip as opposed to buying a forge one? just trying to make this as cheap as possible so i convince myself to go for it lol.

The injectors are part number: 06A 906 031BC

Not sure about the FPR as it was bought from star performance.

Not got the part number to hand for the MAF either.


Yes i would think the standard TIP should work.

M3's are very cool, my bro is selling his P1 to get an E46, only thing is that they cost a fortune if they go wrong, The VANOS system will cost about 2K ive heard and thats quite a common issue with them. Plus brakes etc cost mega money.

My friend 22 has just bought a BMW M3 Convertible in the light blue colour with grey leather with all the sat/nav and SMG. It was expensive but the kind of attention it gets is amazing girl's turn heads & blokes everywhere and I can't think of any nicer car that i could afford that would do that and have some power.
