[S17EW O]

Daft question I know but I've got a 53 plate 225 lcr.....what turbo do I have?

 

[james walker]

k04

 

[S17EW O]

Happy days...so its good for 300 bhp+

 

[james.l]

300 is about the limit without manifold, clutch, internals etc

 

[james walker]

internals will be fine, clutch should be if torque setup properly.

300bhp will be a push on k04 tbh, 280 achievable, but 20bhp on the road youll not notice so much.

280bhp with good map and decent handling upgrades will be a powerful car on the road

as i said, 300 is about the limit. James, are you using a custom FMIC? Just looking at your Avatar?

 

[adam cupra 20vt]

Maybe 300 on a hybrid or optimistic RR but I doubt 300 on a std turbo?

yup, custom toyosports cooler... pipework supplied is direct fitment for leon cupra though. good cooler works well.

what pipework did you use, and did you use this intercooler?

 

[james walker]

That looks like the cooler I have

 

[james walker]

ha ha, and we know how much of a pita thats was adam...

 

[adam cupra 20vt]

My new pipes have just turned up, going to fabricate a new hot side pipe run in the next few weeks

Actually thats smaller than the one I have and the inlet/outlet are smaller

 

[james walker]

whats up with the hot side you have now adam??

mines fine, think i need to retighten the hot side running to the cooler though, tight in there

It looks a mess mate, to many couplers and clamps so I'm going to weld it all up in 2 sections
