help needed on tip

[n1scottyboy]

looking to buy a turbo intake pipe for my leon cupra r before i get a stage 1 tune sometime in the very near future.
these on ebay go from anything from £40 to £180 80mm silicone hoses .
basically has anyone had any experiences with the cheaper hoses and are they basically all ok for a stage 1 tune .
I prob know i will prob hear you get what you pay for but are the cheaper ones really that bad .

Get a badger 5 tip

R--tech say not to buy a piece of crap TIP off of eBay as they're no good, so that was enough for me not to. I bought a forge one for 150 but there are cheaper decent ones out there from what I hear. Don't cheap out is my advice, they're cheap for a reason

Badger 5 supersize tip. That is all!

 

[cuprablack]

Or v.2.2 or whatever it is these days lol.

 

[pugaudio]

I've got js performance TIP on mine and it's very good quality stuff ! tad expensive but made to order

Any proven gains on a badger 5 tip over alternatives such as forge or samco?

 

[Cupra52180]

Badger 5 TIP all the way... And yes you will here and feel the difference

 

[s3matty]

Any proven

Badger 5 TIP all the way... And yes you will here and feel the difference

With or without remap?

 

[Cupra52180]

Without remap you will hear the turbo spool up quicker and louder.. And with remap you will get better gains and full potential out of it..

I've not got a badger 5 tip YET! It I on my very soon list though . Soon as I'm back to work , one will be ordered!
Very good things have been said about it . Speak to bill at badger 5 if your not sure . I think its worth eveRy penny .

 

[Cupra52180]

Dont get me wrong the forge one is good too as it does wot it should do., but personally the minute i changed to the 3" badger 5 TIP
I straight away knew I made the right choice..

 

[s3matty]

Has nobody got any comparison Dyno graphs with the b5 tip vs others on same car ?
If I can see a good increase I will buy one as I have samco ATM

 

[n1scottyboy]

looks like i will have to save my pennies for a badger 5 . is there much difference between the normal 80mm tip and the v2 to warrant a extra £40 £50 quid though .

Or put an advert up WANTED USED one

 

[adam cupra 20vt]

I've got a decent blue ko4 tip I will be selling in next few weeks, think it's either a forge or SFS one.

A decent tip is a must if you're going to remap or a good thing to have even if you're not. I couldn't believe how flimsy and **** my standard one was once I got it off and I completely believe it would start to collapse under hard acceleration. It's money well spent mate
