In England the only option seems to be peloquin :( quaife don't make an exact fit differential for our box I have been told and wavetrack are a rare option here also
. Peloquin will be what I go for. I do like a good 1/4 mile blast but all the roads where I live are very windy and fun to drive so naturally my car has gone down the fast road/track sort of build.
For that extra grunt top end I may go for a K04 or a gt2868 or a 71 Keeping that low down boost too for corner exits :p but that will be next year when I've saved a few pennies :clap:

nice one! I have seen a k04 Ibiza we just finished here recently and she does really well, very oem feel but feels so strong!

My friend has a nicely built gt3071R 1.8T as well and it goes like a dream, if i were you i would decide between gt30 or k04, i do know guys overseas love going gt28 on the 1.8T though.

Need to do some research around the diff but my tuner has a wavetrac and swears by it...will see.

There is a unitronic ibiza on here brwmagozos or something like that and he runs a gt28. You may know him he's from Greece if I remember right. My friend has an ep3 civic type r with a gt2871rs and it makes 308bhp at 5psi haha
Before I take the plunge I will be very sure as to what I buy turbo wise but that is a good way off :lol:
I have heard nothing but good reviews about wavetrack it's just not something that's widely available here :/ I may have to have a look for one when I go to America later in the year :p

Thanks man! I am over the moon since yesterday i decided to go dyno again at the place we all use as the bencmark.

First time i dyno'd with new setup 373whp with 400km on the motor
2nd time round with 750km on the motor 393whp
yesterday i went by and used some octane booster and opened up 0.1bar more boost and got 417whp :funk:
