I know! When i seen the pics i thought **** that lol
Then i thought if he give me it cheap enough i will buy it and keep for hybrid treatment.

Think i am going to get the car mapped by custom code then save up and get the hybrid treatment!
Need new brakes before then aswell!

would you not be mapping it twice then?:blink:

why not get the hybrid treatment first and then mapped, will be cheaper in the end

if you want a decent turbo, turboboy on here has two for sale in good condition which I have seen. They are k03 turbo's, but does not matter as they can easily be made into a proper hybrid

pm him and tell him I sent you:D
 
Yeh dont bother with ko3s or even the remap. Like Jamie said, you'll be wasting money you could put torwards a hybrid. Wish i had waited and not gone to ko3s, not that i dont like it, just the money i spent on that i could be ready to hybrid now!

Oh and by the way, you missed the brembo mk3 group buy! If you ask Bill super quick, he MAY be able to sort something
 
I noticed he was selling them!

Yeah i would be mapping it twice but i really want some decent power just now lol

So i map it just now and by the time i have bought better brakes and save up for all the stuff for hybrid I will map it again! Will take me a while to save up!
 
Take advice from people that have done it mate, honestly, i was just like you, impatient for more power NOW! You'll be happier if you wait for hybrid power!
 
Your right! It would just be plain stupid spending money to go stage 2 just now to keep me happy lol

Should just start saving straight away! lol
 
Looking at Bills post it is roughly 2.5k

I am saving 400 a month so it wont take me that long! Will just spend 4-500 a month on the parts i need then when i am ready I can get them fitted!

you really should chief, you will be kicking yourself if you dont save for the bigger hike in power

patience is a virtue and all that!

what would you rather have - 230bhp or 280bhp?:D
 
Exactly, get the parts slowly when they become available and then just save. Or even, get half the money and stick the rest on the credit card, thats what i'll do. Plastic is there to be abused! ;)
 
lol I would end up never paying it back! Thats the plan!

Hybrid power! I am so impatient lol i need to make sure and buy the parts or i will end up mapping the car lol

buy some 2nd hand 225 injectors....that's a £100 but a cheap mod, then you have already started saving for hybrid power, so no point in getting it mapped:D
 
turboboy has 1, ive got the other for the exact same reason :D

and it was in very good nick, well packaged too :) would recommend him
 
reason why Irish are the highest percentage of europeans in debt :whistle:


would think about that again. If you do something, do it sensibly.

sorry millo, but that's advice which, if I were a moderator, would delete...

:lol:

I personally wouldn't put that much on a credit card. Save up for most of it then just put the mapping on the plastic :)
 
What my comment about abusing plastic Reuvers? Whats wrong with that? But yes, i would stick the whole lot on credit card, just mapping and fitting. Its fairly cheap to get the majority if the parts 2nd hand
 
Chill out Reuvers, it's just a bit of banter, certainly not worthy of deleting :lol:

I'm in the same situation really, but realistically it sounds like an awful lot of money
for the hybrid all in..... there would be a small amount of temptation to just buy a
new car if I were to spend that much on it. hmmmm...:think:

Anyone know of someone who has taken a hybrid down the pod? Just to get a comparison?

I wouldnt use the plastic for any of it why be spend more when you pay it back with intrest in the end my card got a 3k limit enough for it all but only got it incase of emergency save up mate just think how excited you will be when you finally git enough :D:
