Excited already, collected a turbo for my new year upgrades today.
Am also in talks with a diesel injector specialist that hopefully within a couple of months will be offering a reconditioning service on our piezzo injectors and more importantly for me rebuilding with bigger nozzles.
Watch this space.
sounds good, what turbo have you gone for? What power are you looking at once mapped and other bits? Im itching to map my 170 but think that will be as far as I will go, should see 210 would love more. My last car was a 320bhp Astra VXR. Really starting to miss the power that car had but not the build quality lol :DQuote:

I shall be watching this thread with interest as I also have a water meth kit to fit and fmic cooling spray. Keep posting with any developements and good luck with the mods

what sort of price has this set you back out of interest, i know abt did an upgrade for out engine with new turbo injectors and full exhaust and im sure there quotes were close to 400bhp iirc and 650 ish torques but was an absolute fortune.
seem to remember you had a B5 S4 didn't you :D I had one of those and miss it every day, now I've got the grown up car :DQuote:

I have found a supplier in the USA who will custom make a set with 50% more flow but requires my old ones and up to 8 weeks to make them fo £1200. I'm holding out for the UK company to see what they can offer.Quote:

Yes I did have a b5 with k04 and more. I'm not looking for that level of performance as this is the family runner. Well not until i can afford a stage 3 rs6 v10
After modding mine to 301bhp & 501lbs/ft I found that traction was a problem both clutch and tyres and being fwd I have to be careful this time of year. Keep us all posted on how things are going
