Replacement BAM Engine???

[mty12345]

This inserts are a cool idea.

Think I will be going for the Forge one, 195 isn't as bad as I was expecting.

Yeah i think i'd go for that one too. Being forge it should be well made and do the job well too.

Going by this tuning guide: Link

I have seen for a stage 2 map I will want an uprated DV. I have read the 007p is the one to get, but I can't seem t find it. Is this 008p it's replacement? Or maybe this?

I currently have a FMIC and 80mm cone atm. I will have an exhaust manifold and 3" exhaust set up (With decat?), will have uprated rods. Is there anything else I am missing? ideas on required spark plugs? I'm thinking colder spark.

Cheers, Ash

Yeah i'm pretty sure for stage 2 you need to go a grade colder on the plugs.
The 008 is the replacement for the 007 as you say mate, the adjustable one just has the vacuum connection at 90 degrees rather than vertical as in the 008.

 

[Ash-Kennard]

I see, any benefit with that?

 

[mty12345]

No mate, none performance wise. It's just for if you are trying to fit it into a tight space and the pipe is getting in the way. Shouldn't be an issue on the leon as there is plenty of room above the valve, think it's mainly for people doing engine conversions and trying to squeeze a 1.8T into a small car etc etc

I See. Cheers.

Are these eagle rods?:

 

[mty12345]

not sure tbh mate

 

[Bouncerbeater]

Judging by all the images that come up when you search I would say possibly not but maybe the design has changed or something

 

[Ash-Kennard]

Thats exactly what I did!

Right ******* to find.

However, someone who did know, told me they are...

Finger crossed this goes well. I hope the turbo is okay!

 

[Bouncerbeater]

Fingers crossed for you. Rods are the next step for me engine wise. Won't be for a while though

That's what I thought! Haha, good luck with it. What are you looking at going for?

They were the ones I was looking at before I got this engine. I'm sure they wil be spot on from everything I've read.

No worries Scott. I'll have it sorted soon and we can go back out at some point.

Cheers, Ash

GAYYYY. Turbo is dead too.

Advice on new turbo anyone? Worth switching to a hybrid K04 now?

 

[Bouncerbeater]

Ouch !
Perfect opportunity to do so though. Be rude not to !

 

[Ash-Kennard]

Out of stock. Any ideas?

This is a good idea. I'll find out how much is left of the shell tomorrow.
