So you looking forward to surprising a few people with hybrid power, Who you using to map it for you? rs tuning seem highly reccomended on here, thats who ash 130 tdi used, and got 240bhp! but toned it down a bit I think for everyday.

yea definately, i surprised my mate with a 300bhp leon cupra r who thought he would pull lorry lengths away form me (on a private road obviously) but actually stayed quite close to him, was not untill big speeds that it felt like i had hit a brick wall and he had a jet engine! weight obv makes a difference and my torque is higher too. my mate did a stahe 1 map for me, but had a few issues with him so not been talking to him for a while so doubt i'll get him to do my stage 3 (his map was amazing tho) probably go with celtic tuning because they ar derv specialists if not another friend who does custom maps
when you hoping to get your in? and map?

Well it all comes down to funds, or rather lack of them, I'm getting turbo at the end of this month, although wont fit it till Ive got clucth, and funds for a remap. My insurance is due in May so I need to save for that for a couple of months, so that ties up funds till after may, so another couple of months save for clucth, and another month for funds for remap, so works out around end of august, but I'm trying to get more overtime but were a little quiet at work at the moment. I'm not in a massive rush but would like it done before september.
jeez alot of saving lol! well when you do get it done im sure it will be the beez neez!!
our private roads are awesome
they are, they really are

300bhp cupra R unless he had a bigger turbo than stock, he has no way of getting 300bhp. When are you getting the new turbo back??

yes he is stage 2 plus a few tweeks, spoke to turbo people and they said that it is not component falure but impact damage, appaently they said something went through it but can understand how the blades were intact! might have to flock out some money AGAIN! not sure yet but either way will have a turbo by next week
So somethings gone through your turbo? So TD fixing the turbo you gave them? or giving you a new one? I'm getting mine soon, hope all gets sorted soon for you.
ok so finally got some good/bad news on the turbo!! update is more like the word...
anyway i get my turbo back on saturday and will get it back on the car the same day. basically it looks like part of the gasket had crumbled off and goone through the wastegate, destroyed it and then destroyed the inside of the exhaust side of the compressor wheel. luckily because it happened at a very low speed it did not cause too much damage to the casing etc.
so im paying for parts and everything else like labour and stuff im not getting charged for. glad im finally getting it back been off the road for 2 weeks now.will get it mapped on sunday too

didnt find the bit that went through the turbo but there is a piece missing from the gasket...
nope, if anything will be in the exhaust...taken all pipework and intercooler off to clean anyway
did you fit a new manifold gasket? I'm getting my new md376 hybrid next week.
thats anazing, will be awesome even though ur not fitting it for ages.
i have new gaskets to fit when i put the turbo back on
