Hi guys in the next couple of weeks i will be rebuilding my LCR

On this rebuild i will be adding 2 new mods

1: Relentless k04 staged turbo
2: Relentless v3.2 manifold


I'm hoping to gain a good bit of power from this and once parts arrive ill be able to get my head under the hood and build back up and give you lot feedback on these products

It took me 9 weeks to find a turbo and manifold searching high and low and I'm 100% sure this was the forward

I will take a few pictures of the products before/during/after fitment
once the car is set back up ill be going to get my map updated and rolling road the car again to make sure the car is running 100%

From the Audi forums and a few threads on here iv seen people gaining anything from 15-30% power increase from there previous manifolds

my car was running a steady 270bhp before the engine was removed back in May,
I will hopefully be running 300bhp+





These are suited to the mk1 seat leon cupra r and the mk1 audi s3.
Reviews and fitting help can be found here

Dont buy the turbo, i work with relentless and its not good. Its a down grade from stock. To be honest i didnt even know that we are selling them. 3.2 manifold is just a ported v3 for the same price.
V4 still on its way :)
 
well my current turbo is cracked and no point rebuilding with that one
and yes the v4 is on its way but its been on its way for weeks and my cars been of road since start of may and sharing a car is not the best idea if both of us sharing dont have set shifts

sam i emailed you , because your supplier told me to contact you , they then asked me to email them and they would forward it to you because i got no reply back from yourself.
 
make sure the collector is fully welded on what you receive. check carefully.

I have update v3 here and it was not welded fully on back of collector. Be Warned.

I thought the hybrid was a still born? How can they sell them when they have been proven not to work as well as the standard turbo?
 
Bill you should have contacted me, i would have swapped that over.

they already know about it Sam

this is a sample "new" v3 sent for me to look at.....
it had ported head flange and the hole centres were correct, and head flange was linished and fitted onto head ok... BUT they once again shot themselves in the foot, not complete welding the collector.
Its not the first time I've seen this either.

Disappointing

Wtf on a sample piece. I have only seen it once apart from that. Still no failures tho
