n.ireland boy :)
Evening folks have come across a site which seems to sell a few tuning bits for 1.9 tdi vags I've always talked myself out of a turbo upgrade because of the sheer cost of it all but these guys sell a complete bolt on kit with all the add ons you need to make it work and all this for less than half the price of darkside developments of course not knocking darkside they def know there stuff.

My question has anyone got anything off these guys before?

Are they legit not a scam ?

Looks almost identical to Darkside Developments website! Looks odd to say the least, could be a European copy of their website?

Darkside don't have any sister outlets and Profi tuning appear to be a separate tuning company. I did email them a while back before I did my conversion and they explained they weren't doing these kits anymore. You could email them again if you're interested!

They sell on tdiclub aswell, website has put off many but who cares if the parts are good and do their job?

If you want copied darkside parts go find jk-automotive ;)

Either way I have 2 turbos that just need converting to vacuum 1756vk and 2260vk that'll be chucked ok profi diesel manifold/downpipe kits for 1.9tdi

what to do .

so has anyone ordered any stuff from them , i spoke to Ivo who said they no longer use recon turbo's , they still do the turbo kit though (just no turbo with it), also just started doing tubular manifolds .. there stuff looks ok and there on facebook for over a year now , just wondering if anyone has any experience with them ??

as it stands there way cheaper than any other quotes ive had and thats with a tubular manifold instead of a welded cast one plus a 3" downpipe , im thinking i might order the turbo fitting kit from profidiesel and get the 4bar map sensor and recon gtb2260 from xman ,. unless they cant send it via dhl or someone reliable with insurance in which case ill have to go for the cast manifold with the welded gtb2260 on it from xman (seems the best choice but id prefare the tubular manifold and to save some pennys)
thanks in advance ..
