plans... ko4

[will_ainsworth]

right i have been searching through the forum and see a lot of threads so please excuse me for making a new one, just need to get a rough idea of everthing i will need.

dont really want to spend ££££s... but was thinking of ko3s then thought well for a bit extra surely its better to go for a k04 and just get a leon r set up?

plan would be to get to as near as 300 as i can. if you could be so kind to help me on my way.....
also should hopefully have a forge fm and miltec cat back soon so that will be a bit closer.

what i can think of....
ko4
225 injectors
fmic
i believe a custom dp.decat etc
exhaust (miltek)
3'' maf?
ko4 intake

cheers

hi mate im running a K04 set up running at 271 bhp with 343lbs torque graph to prove.

k04 turbo
custom down pipe
injectors
3 inch maf
tip
fordge fmic
milteck full system
forge split r
decat
also has a cupra r ecu (says on vag com)

and its mapped at 21psi

goes so much better than my 240bhp k03s i had and the power is alot smoother not as snappy on boost

sell me your set up lol my mate was gonna buy your gti if i think its you (cherry red one) ?? spoke to you on the phone, instead he ended up going for a cupra?

 

[JJ_arosa]

ye my track toy 106 gti 150bhp miss it!!

343lbs/ft of torque? Thats gotta be getton close for rod bending territory.

 

[JJ_arosa]

il put rolling road prit out up now

 

[jam666999]

Dont think he was querying it mate, thats a just a hi torque figure.

 

[JJ_arosa]

i know that, iv spoke to phill on the phone a few times and hes good mates with my good mate lol

just it does seem a high number i thought it myself befor buying it but it was there on paper so could not argue

must have a uprated clutch im guessing to hold that power back ??

clutch does seem on/off

 

[PhilW]

Just because its on paper doesnt mean its right. To quote bills saying "dyno lottery".

I've also got 280+ lbs/ft of torque on a k03.

All i was gettin at, was your close to rod bending territory especially with the way the power comes in on the smaller kkk turbos compared to say 340 lbs of torque on a 28rs for instance.

 

[JJ_arosa]

i know you wernt having a pop, ask paul what the torque is like on mine mate its crazy.

what your rods and pistons cost u phill?

as thsats my next thing bigger blower and forge it up

 

[DaNnY_LaD]

Thats more torque than a Ihi stage 1 lol

My k03 made 287ft-lb lol

 

[nogutsnoglory]

343lbs/ft, hmm somehow think around 300 lbs/ft would be more realistic
mines got 330 lbs/ft on a GT2871r running 360bhp!

 

[DaNnY_LaD]

Yeah 300ft-lb i would say aswell....Unless its a mutant one lol

also if you want someone to make you up the braided Custom Oil and coolant lines aswell as Dp ask Alex(backdraft) as he'll sort you out

 

[JJ_arosa]

Here are the rolling road print outs guys, rolling road was dyno dynamics at evole.

 

[DaNnY_LaD]

we belive you just that the Torque is abit optimistic..

 

[JJ_arosa]

ye i thought it was to mate, but compared to my last one that was 260 ftlb its much much more torque
