RE: My stage 2 HDi Estate - Dum-Dum - 12-10-2012
^^^ I thought the 2 numbers after the frame size were the coldside so going from a 1549 to a 2052 is a 3mm difference in coldside.
RE: My stage 2 HDi Estate - Poodle - 13-10-2012
That's a fair point actually lol, brain fail.
Still, would be better off fitting the turbo in standard form imho.

I agree mate, But need to do more research before making any decisions.. I'm hoping to hit the 200 BHP mark reliably, and still have a reasonably driveable car.
RE: My stage 2 HDi Estate - Jonny81191 - 16-11-2012
Well not masses to report really, still collecting bits, driving the car daily and she's holding together just beautifully
But my spoiler has finally arrived, got the first coat of paint on already, I have my 23.5mm TB's ready to fit, and I also got one of those ipod connectors that works on a standard stereo. Which is nice
And I also had a few weeks of straight pipe win, which ended tonight after one of my rushed and gasless (ran out 1/2 way through the job) welds failed. So I'm now just on a mid box!
RE: My stage 2 HDi Estate - Ruan - 17-11-2012
GTxyyzz -
X being A or B - being the generation of turbo, some OEMs don't have this on, (BMW is one of them...)
Y being the frame of Turbo - generally the shaft size, but GT15-25 are mostly the same shaft size...
Z being the compressor exducer in millimetres - most places measure the compressor INDUCER rather than exducer, but Garrett like to be different.
The whole reaming turbos into housings is a crap idea IMO unless you seriously know what you're doing with regards to adjusting the throat into the wheel otherwise you'll end up screwing the A/R wildly, either causing massive backpressure, or serious lag...
The OEM turbo on an 8v HDi is a GT1546S....

RE: My stage 2 HDi Estate - Niall - 25-11-2012
your going to love the TBs. Fitted mine today and its made such a difference! slightly more tail happy now. need some better tyres badly!
RE: My stage 2 HDi Estate - Jonny81191 - 25-11-2012
Yeah, also got solid mounts to be fitted.. should be fun!

never driven a car with solid mounts but went in grants after he fitted his and i wasnt a fan really but each to their own! Just dont do what i did with the bars and put one in the wrong way round and spend ages wondering why the hell it wont fit!
RE: My stage 2 HDi Estate - Jonny81191 - 25-11-2012
well I can always take 'em off again, why didn't you like them?

Nah, he wears stilts to push his shopping trolley around
RE: My stage 2 HDi Estate - samass - 27-11-2012
he does now you mean, up until his birthday he had to make do with upturned baked bean cans under his feet haha
RE: My stage 2 HDi Estate - Eeyore - 27-11-2012
like the spoiler. Expensive stuff though! D: How did you fit it? Screws or lots of tiger seal? May have to get one myself however i am still on the look out for something more like Spellows.
RE: My stage 2 HDi Estate - Jonny81191 - 27-11-2012
I drilled holes in the boot and used the bolts supplied, also used the glue supplied, which is 100x better than tigerseal, very very high instant grab!
Just so you know, Pellowe's boot won't open much over half way. Which would be an issue for you being a DI and all.. But his spoiler does look truly epic!

really? lol. is that because itll crush the spoiler between the lid and the roof? May have keep my eyes open for an ecosse one? How much was it? £250 odd arent they? D:
RE: My stage 2 HDi Estate - Jonny81191 - 28-11-2012
Yeah, it catches on the roof
but I think he was gonna sort it.As for ecosse spoilers, I painted mine, so it was under £200 delivered. But it took since the 20th of september to arrive!
And you'll not find one second hand. I've searched for a long time and never found one..
RE: My stage 2 HDi Estate - Jonny81191 - 02-12-2012
Epic lows were achieved thanks to KrisB.
And the xmas meet was epic
here's a few shots in the car park and a tunnel run video ![[Image: 8239459188_2eb6610d98.jpg]](http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8345/8239459188_2eb6610d98.jpg)

gunna do it?
RE: My stage 2 HDi Estate - c.gerrard - 02-12-2012
Looked better on the phone, but it's still pretty damn sweeet.
RE: My stage 2 HDi Estate - Toms306 - 02-12-2012
I don't usually.like the look of estates or silver 306s.......but somehow yours looks awesome! Nice one jonny.
RE: My stage 2 HDi Estate - Tom - 02-12-2012
This car is awesome! Love the combination of silver body and white wheels!
RE: My stage 2 HDi Estate - cwspellowe - 02-12-2012
It's looking lush now fella, total opposite to mine!
And the spoiler will never be sorted. Form>Function and all that.
RE: My stage 2 HDi Estate - Jonny81191 - 21-12-2012
Cheers guys!
So.. I now have the following to fit as soon as time and weather allows!
-CG 4 paddle unsprung clutch
-GT2052
-Solid beam mounts
I raised the back up 20mm the other night, it's made the drive much better, less tail heavy and understeery, was too low at the back
Also want to make a decent exhaust, but that'll wait for the new turbo, then I can do it all in one go.
And I'm going to have a go at making an enclosed cone filter, I fitted a standard panel the other day and you can really feel it high up in the revs, so I'm gonna fit a big cone filter and try and enclose it somehow..
Then roll on more tuning
RE: My stage 2 HDi Estate - samass - 21-12-2012
Haribo bucket works well.....
RE: My stage 2 HDi Estate - Tom - 21-12-2012
Whats the reason for enclosing it if you have an intercooler anyway? Will it make much difference? :p

This I have heard. I'm thinking maybe plastic paint tin, something like that..

Reason is for the bodgetasticness of it, just so I can have a go at making one
But also because as Tesco tells us, Every little helps 
But realistically, I doubt it'd make much difference either way.
