[rashcupra]

does do it more than other and its not a pointless post as i am still worried about it earlier on today i left it running before i left work like always to warm up the little turbo and when i pulled past the workshop doors i could see i had filled the workshop with fumes like big time yet again did clear up tho tell me that is steam!

 

[goble]

take it to a dealer!
stop worrying or other wise you'll have steam coming out of your ears

 

[rashcupra]

well dont want to do any damge as there will be plenty of damage on my wallet already with the jbs04 turbo in mind

Have you enquired about the £6K one is it any cheaper because you have already got some of the some of the listed modifications, plus you'll have to sell your new downpipe? Don't think the milltek is 3" is it?

 

[rashcupra]

aparantly the 2.5" is fine said mike at jbs really cant see this making much diffrence personally specially if the cat back isnt changed either as it would still be only able to push that amount out with or without 3" new downpipe (think that makes sense??)

havent looked into the 6k turbo upgrade is that the ihi turbo then?? as prices and power increases arent stated but apparantly the jbs04 turbo is the more popular turbo to go for

 

[Triple D]

Rash, if you pm me, i know somebody selling a IHI setup, along with dp, manifold, injectors and obviously the turbo.should be good for 330 bhp id have thought.

 

[rashcupra]

wil do fella

 

[Triple D]

Bunnin and jordan, Please be quiet :birdy:

 

[gazjones]

what about me lol i like those 3 letters

 

[rashcupra]

whats the diffrence between the jbs04 turbo and the ihi?

 

[gazjones]

erm about 40 bhp a jbs 04 is just basically a ko4 off the lcrs ihi is step above that

 

[rashcupra]

is there much price diffrence as on the jbs website no prices are shown on the ihi kit?? do you have any idea?

 

[gazjones]

the ihi kit is about 5k i think average off all the places its sold

 

[rashcupra]

im so lost with what to do im reallt not sure am gonna need the tip so cant purchase turbo til then also the airbox and maf sensor was a problem think mike at jbs was thinking of a diesel pd160 cupra airbox lid and maf sensor heard that the s3 maf dont fit not gonna want to change d.p now ive finally got it all working and that and cant see 0.5 making much if any diffrence! im gonna have to do some more research on the ihi turbo i think

 

[gazjones]

will still need another dp as the outlet of the turbo is on the side not the bottom so same situation as the jbs set up

 

[rashcupra]

oh

i really think some of you guys need to drive a seriously high powered FWD car before you pump a few thousand spondoolies into your cars.

I loved my Ibiza when it was at the 230bhp mark, but i doubt it was good for much more, i was always sick of getting spanked by lesser cars in damp conditions, it got embarassing sometimes. So how the hell would be 350bhp of any use.

My little bruv has got his fiesta running now, its 240bhp at the wheels and stripped out, flipping fast tooo ( would have eaten my old Ibiza alive) 0-60 is coming up in the mid 5's. But drivable, Nope absoloutely not, straight line yeah it is fun, but round the corners can you use that power, NOPE. On any windy B road my virtually standard Mini cooper S would leave him for dead and thats losing out to him 90 odd horsies and 250 kilos heavier.

And that is what i fear you guys are gonna end up with going silly power in the beeza's

Personally i think if you wanna go IHI, sell your Cupra, take your £9k and go buy an Audi S3, then IHI that. Cos you need 4WD to use it properly. And before anyone shouts "look at bill's car" yeah i knw, but that is'nt £4k's worth of work on it is it, Dunno, call me old man, but not sure big turbo is gonna be ultimately worth it on the mk4

Sorry just my 2 pennys worth, for what thats worth
