Mk5 Ibiza turbo upgrade

[Fr4g]

Hello,

I was wondering what sort of turbo the mk5 ibiza had in it and also if putting one from a cupra leon in it would increase the performance. I will be getting it remapped after, but I just cant find what my current turbo is.

I'm having a look round, I think the turbo from a cupra ibiza will fit but its finding all the exhaust fittings for it.

I was potentially thinking about just getting a turbo off the shelf but long way to go and a lot of money when it’s just a 1.4

Which model do you have

Your engine should be able to handle the turbo from a cupra ibiza. Just make sure to upgrade intake and exhaust before remapping.

I got the 1l and I didnt know if it could handle the pressure. Might have been funny but I'm just going for a remap and exhaust, maybe a new intake.
