What can you say about your current turbo setup (afaik you have td04 hybrid)? How does the boost treshold look like, for example on what rpm do you achieve 1bar and full boost when on the 3rd gear?

Sorry for the late reply, i don't use it much so i had a look at the weekend when i was using it. Full boost in 3rd gear for 1 bar is at 3000RPM, pulls very well and all the way through the rev range. Not often i need to use it to its full potential however. Hope this helps.

Well i feel like its time i should up date this, the car has been to numerous shows through the year, Japfest, Yorkshire Modified, Scoobyfest (even managed to win 2nd best bugeye)

Now unfortunatley the run of good luck ended the other week when the car developed a running fault, lack of boost and wont rev past 4000rpm, after countless head scratching and a few messages to andrew carr i think the TGV'S have managed to blow shut, its booked in for MOT tomorrow then off comes the inlet to confirm. Here's some photo's i took when i was test driving the car one night;

To finish things off ive also picked up this Prodrive Front bumper, which just so happens is the exact one Jake had fitted :lol:

Get a set of tgv deletes for it, quite common for the butterfly's to get blown shut

I've got an STI 7 inlet manifold you can have for £50+ postage, it's in perfect condition, won't be able to post it for 2 weeks though as I'm out of the country, or could meet you part way as I'm only down the road from you in Notts.

Really nice bug mate, like you I also wasn't too keen on this shape until I bought my mates off him and now I love it, easily the best car I have ever owned!

Don't see many in white either........

scott told me about the bumper haha.

Matty81 23 August 2017 09:17 AM

What power did you make on the hybrid td04 Simon ? I'm thinking about having that done myself. Is it worth the money ?.

Cheers

gc8simon 24 August 2017 08:20 PM

Well unfortunatley due to a change in heart im going to be selling the car in the coming weeks, the revolutions and the prodrive seats + harnessess will be removed and sold seperate so if anybody is interested please don't hesitate to message me, otherwise keep your eyes peeled on ebay.
