hey im lookin into gettin 300 or more bhp out of my cupra if i decide to keep it, what should i be lookin into buyin and how much will it cost me?

cheers
 
to get three hundred you will need a new turbo as the standard turbo can only flow about 275/280 bhp and thats when it starts to get expensive i think
 
I guess he was accidentically thinking of 2.0 TFSI Cupra which is equipped with a k04 device...

Edit: or maybe not...*g* I ve been to slow*g;)

fitted tubby conversion was 4k then fmic 800. thats ready to roll. DPJ has fitted his own big turbo for far less i imagine. any good with a spanner?
 
yeh i have an above average knowledge of fixing things, so could do the work myself, just parts costs that i will endure
 
check with tuner/mapper you want to use. some wont map it unless they fit it. id ring around the tuners for kit/mapping prices. check out DPJs turbo build thread.. should give you a good idea of what your up against.
 
have you had a look on the Jabba Sport website or the JBS website for the IHI turbo upgrade.

ideally:

jbs05 - is amodified k04 turbo,
manifold off lcr
injectors
3"maff
poss fpr
down pipe
race cat
tip
forge 007p
custom code stage 2
this will see about 300-310
