Hi

Gruppe-s in the USA will supply one for $800 delivered to the UK. Thats a little over £400. I doubt anybody in the UK can get near that.

Andy

 

It will be after you pay VAT and import duty.

 

thanks guy appreciate it,who can put a p20 housing on it for me instead of the standard p18?

 

If your lucky it will be £400 but probably nearer to £500 inc vat duty etc.

I havent been able to find a supply for less than £700 in the UK

 

447 GBP delivered, only covered 5 miles.

Who is doing it for £700 andy?

 

Sorry I meant to type £750 and I dont think it was inc the dreaded VAT. I have an email from gruppe-s saying they will supply to the UK for $800, for a brand new turbo- they are just too expensive in the UK.

 

Even if you do get hit for Duty, it still works out cheaper.

I bought a brand new VF30 from the US. $700 And i got hit for £80 duty.
Still way cheaper than what i would've paid over here.

 

I got 1 off a bloke called mef on here for £600 just after xmas, you could try PM or e-mail him and see if he can still do them

I can get new VF34's for £700 total.

 

thanks guys,been looking into getting a pe1919,no idea who sells them though?

 

you mean the PE 1818F?

 

Dont know if this may be of interest to you ?

http://bbs.sidc.co.uk/messageview.cf...threadid=34701

 

yes the PE 1818F,where can you get one?

 

I can supply the 1818 but they arent 'cheap'. You have a PM.

 

Still want a bolt-on that can make 370-400 crank bhp with little lag,i don't really want to wait till 4krpm.Got my concerns that the pe1818f will be too laggy and that the vf34 with 20 housing won't shift enough air for more than 370bhp?
BVM, are you based in the uk?

 

Yep I am in Soham and work for ATF Power Engineering.

 

i know where to get vf34 in the uk for £700 aswell

 

Remember you cant get fast spool and big numbers on the top. Turbos dont work that way. Of course you could get a large turbo and N20. Use the N20 below the spool. So if your new XXX turbo spools at 4k RPM you use the N20 with a window switch up to 3,900 rpm (or less). The 18g will get you really close to the peak numbers you want and spool as quick or quicker than your VF34 if tuned properly. Jeff's FP18g hits full boost by 3,300 rpm (depending on gear) with a Perrin FMIC! I sent you some pretty good info on the 2 turbos you where asking about.

 

Do you know if the pe1818f is based on the vf34? I know the specs are similar other than the compressor Inducer,Exducer which is larger.The turbo is sometimes rated at 350 crank hp and sometimes 410hp?What i really want to know is how much more laggier is the pe1818 is than the vf34 and how much more power it can produce,but only andy tang seems to have run this turbo in the uk.

 

The VF34 is rated to be good up to 375hp, the PE1818F is up to 420. PE is suppose to be at full boost BY 4k rpm. Obviously the bigger the turbo, the more lag you will get.

 

I am interested in the pe1818f but only if it can produce 400hp otherwise i might as well stick to the vf34/20.Power enterprise site doesn't quote a power figure?

 

Power Enterprise PE 1818 Turbo
The PE 1818 Turbo is a high-performance turbo developed by Power Enterprise. This turbo uses IHI turbine & compressor housings and incorporates PE's custom twin-ball bearing center cartridge. This design allows the turbo to be capable of over 410+ HP (~340+whp). The PE1818 is a much more streetable turbo than the PE1820 as it features a smaller turbine housing than the PE1820. This smaller turbine housing decreases boost lag, where full boost is possible (depending on modifications and tuning) at around 4000rpm. This turbo is an excellent choice for customers who are seeking a high power turbo, but who are interested in retaining streetability and are not planning to run high boost pressures (21+ psi). This turbo is a direct bolt-on for all GC8, GDA, GDB EJ20 turbo engines.
**A properly setup fuel and engine management system is required to maximize the power output of this turbo.

 

If anyone can supply me a new vf34 cheaply for £500-£700 then send me a pm,thanks Rollers
