Im not too sure if this has been Mention before but anyway Im wondering what does everyone thing the max output is off a Non hybrid k04 at Resonable Boost (peak)

The reason im asking at the moment as im currently Building up my cupra R and so far the Mods Are:

K04 forge Actuator
K04 turbo
Custom 3'' Tip
Forge 007p (yellow Spring)
IE uprated Connecting Rods
Inlet Manifold Phenolic Gasket
Large Jetex Filter
Blue Flame 2.75 System
3'' Downpipe & De-cat
N249 bypass
INA/034 motorsport Exhaust manifold
Stage 2 Snow Peformance WMI Kit (175ms Nozzle)

would it be Realistic to say, could it see 300bhp Or around that number...Fair enough Its Running WMI But i want that for mainly Cooling Propertys But if i can Advanced the Timing on a ''Mild'' mix then Even better....I havent looked at mapping yet but the Apr Stage 2 with V-tune does seem the Most Ideal for me..Due to the Service and How close they are...
 
What map you running, Danny? Has it been mapped to take the WMI into account (any advance timing?)?

I think you would be lucky to see 290bhp....
 
Im still on the OEM 210 map Damo at the moment im just fitting new parts and the mapping will be the last think i look at..

But the APR stage 2 would be a good shout IRRC? Ive been doing some searching and seen 2 people on here make 293 & 297 with 4.45 + Advanced
 
Mine did a solid 275 on Jabbasports dyno, stock engine, 3" downpipe, decat, Grs front mount intercooler.
 
no std k04 has made >260bhp on my dyno yet... only hybrids exceed this figure.
on a dyno which reads std cars at std power, i believe its realistic numbers.

300bhp from stock k04... I cant see it. higher flow mani? hmmm. only time will tell what etra the k04's got in it with some extra flow to it

Eh 260bhp on your dyno?Is that stage 2?but most seem to make 270-280bhp but with WMI & exhaust manifold i couldnt gain 20bhp..But lets say using a 20% mix to start off with?

I do see your point though considering the manifold has just come out and only a few people have got these but tbh it would be interesting to see what it could produce With stage 2 and a INA Manifold...

Haven't you got anymanifolds yet from INA/034 motorsport?. To test with a OEM k04 But like i said Even the High flow manifold Should release some Power .

seems everyone has the same max BHP figures..

but what about torque?
maybe a noob question....but i see loads of different figures ...

reason?

yep, 260 max "real" bhp on my dyno on stage 1 or 2, 210/225 motors thus far

think that 180g/s is a 225bhp motor (1.25 conversion)
get 216g/s and you *could* be in the 270bhp region

how much do you think is left in a k04 which cannot sustain much more than a bar of boost at 6krpms or more..

the more i see and dyno, the more data i wil have, but the numbers most commonly touted do not replicate here, and do not corrspond to required mass airflows.

with your mods, it should run well of course when setup optimally
good luck with it.

Thanks Bill

I see your point though Small turbo On Bt simular power...Id to give up on the WMI as i need a new clutch so il be ordering a SouthBend through sammy but it will be interesting to see what it could make...

Im going for apr stage 2 with v-tune but once its been RR'd at awesome i woulnd'nt mind a day trip downsouth to you to compare RR to see what you think..

you up for that?
 
i thin a standard k04 will mate 400 bhp?? lol, i dont no, 290's i reckan, wud b interesting tho dannt to c wat u can get wiv the manifold
