Hi,

I am quite new to the 20VT motor, so I have a few questions:

How much boost can the stock turbo and motor take?
How much is stock boost?
Anyone have the part number for green/redstuff brake pads for these cars? (Ibiza and cordoba cupra. I have a cordoba cupra) A store that sells the pads here can not find the ones for the cupra in his catalog.

That's all for now :)

Thanks!

Carl

hi m8 welcome.. as far as i know stock boost is around 8/9psi and with a chip they usually dont take above 15/15psi. as for green stuff pads and discs, theres been alot of contraversy with ebc... discs seem good but pads wear quick see thread:

Pagids seem to be the user choice in pads and ebc discs...

great :)

I will try the Pagid pads then, and maybe some EBC disks if my wallet permits it :)

Thanks!

BTW, 15 psi (~1 bar) is the maximum boost? Or max SAFE boost? :)

LOL
Don't believe everything you read.
My Oettinger goes way over 12psi... up to 18psi on overboost.
(it passes by 12psi though :D on its way DOWN as well as up)
