Just thought I would share this with you: I have now installed the CR turbo's hybrid together with a THS Performance 2.5" decat down pipe.
No remap yet as I need to fit the large FMIC and different pipework, but the sound of the turbo spolling up is awesome :D
Going through the revs now feels like there is a lot to be had from this turbo!

Few pics as well....

Old and new down pipes.

New turbo manifold. You can see the EGR block-off plate.

Yep sure am;)

I think the .216 nozzles and modified fuel tank feed will give enough juice for 190ish bhp, but we will see.

I heard the, well have also read up that the standard injection pump can only flow enough for around 180bhp ish? What mod have you done to the fuel tank?

There is a known mod on tdiclub, where the one-way valve in the feed pipe in the tank can be 'drilled' out. This gets rid of the restriction that the injection pump has to overcome and allows a freer flow of fuel to the pump. When I did this I could rev the engine past 4000rpm much more easily; hence there much be less of a restriction.
The valve is there I understand to stop the fuel draining back to the tank when the fuel filter is replaced.

i dont think there is enough ,well i guess it depends on what would you gonna do with your car...i thought about a racing oil cooler from ebay...which costs around 200 eur.
 
Ah yes, but going on experimentation by tdiclub members in the US, they have had good results of keeping the oil temp below 100°C, and thats on a race track......
 
with passat oil cooler?Probably they're right...i heard that the guyz from Alaska have good results with the passat oil cooler on the race track.LOL
Seriously i don't think so..that cooler was made for a 131 hp car not for 200 hp car.I have an afm oil cooler and the oil temp is always 80 C doesn't matter how i drive...

No need on your car, I take it you have the the PD engine? You have a completely different setup to the 110 engines.
There is a fuel pump mounted in your fuel tank, unlike the 110 non-PD diesels.
 
Bit of an update on the oil temperature. I did a track day on Saturday and the oil temp was @ 105degC bit too hot! So I will be fitting the better oilcooler sooner rather than later!

I will be fitting the FMIC in a few weeks so that should be interesting, together with the custom pipe work and PD intake manifold off a Passat.
 
Please put up pics etc and how you fitted the new cooler when youve done it. I need to do this to mine too :)
