Hi Shadowmaker,
As Mikey mentions you are a turbo expert.
When a turbo is specified as 1749, 1752, 2052, 2056 etc. I know in 1749 that 17 represents the hot side or impellor and 49 relates to the cold side/ compressor. Do you know what is being measured by 17 and 49. For example, is 17 the diameter of the inlet or turbine wheel.
Could you explain please.
Lastly, do you know anything about air fuel ratios for diesels.
Thanks

hi, i have a pd100 wat turbo can i get for it?? wat other mods wud be essential to go with it? need to draw more power out of it as i have recently had to change cars from a fr 1.8t![]()
Tom, why did you upgrade your flywheel?
I want to do my clutch after a ss FMIC and was wondering if i would be fine with my current flywheel
You'll be fine with your current flywheel mate. I think Tom. replaced his cos didnt want to have to replace the DMF in later life if it went....
Especially with how bad his clutch sounded, it would probably have runied the DMF a bit....
Ah, thanks for that - my car has done 90k miles now so if i get this conversion done i'll be keeping it for a good whileand make a massive loss when i sell it - will be worth it though

If you dont intend to go any further than a remap then i'd stick with the DMF as its capable of taking that power something like reliably.
The DMF's are capable of hybrid power, but the SMF's are more capable and happier with the power. If you're going for like 250bhp + (stage 3/4) then it's worth going for a SMF. When torque goes over 400ft/lb it becomes more of a necessity.
Youve got to me more careful about how you apply the power though.
With single mass its not going to shake itself to bits.
End of the day, it comes down to wether you can live with the noise of a single mass.
