Turbo upgrade

[Jukie88]

Basically I'm looking at a turbo upgrade for my hdi just wondering if there is any that are a direct bolt on replacement ?

[Poodle]

No, there aren't.

[Jonny81191]

only option would be to have a hybrid made...

[Jukie88]

Sad times ok next question. What is the best turbo upgrade and what mods would i need to get done to fit it ?? Bearing in mind I have had no remaps or anything yet ??

[4WayDiablo]

GT2056 :-) done

[Just Sean]

Ive got a ko3s hybrid to fit to my hdi, but i believe dum-dum payed a fair bit for it!

[Jukie88]

GT2056 what will I need to modify to get this to fit ?? A I'm not that confident welding and cutting I'm more of a bodywork kinda guy just want to know what parts will need cutting and modifying to make other turbos fit ??

You'd need adaptors so it'd fit the mani and adapters for the down pipe unless you made a custom mani to go over the gearbox, but you'd need to move the battery to the boot and the mani would be quite expensive

[Jukie88]

Argh way to much ball ache then ok well that sorted I think I'll just get a map and leave it at that cheers for the info lads

[Midnightclub]

You can still get plenty of power on the standard turbo mate, it's good for up to about 170bhp with a decent mapper

[Jukie88]

I'm not after silly power around 130/40 would be more than enough just trying to get a picture of what parts I'm gunna need to achieve It

[Midnightclub]

You could get around 130bhp stage 1, someone the other day even ran 138bhp on a stage 1 tune so if that's all your after it's definitely achievable

Tbf even the mapper was dubious that it was actually 138bhp, dodgy rollers/run is more likely. As you say though, do it right and a stage 1 will see you the right side of 130.

Mods I'm thinking are straight through exhaust no mufflers except back box maybe , cut the cat out panel filter, and I'm gunna look into egr as In not sure what it does something to do with boost pressure ???

Sorry, but this info is so easy to find.. The EGR valve puts exhaust gases into the intake in order to reduce emissions. It should be removed as it normally gets blocked and fills your intake with soot and tar.

It's very easy to find you just told me :-P cool so is it just a pull off and bin hobby or does it require welding etc etc ??

[Jonny81191]

you can either blank it and leave it in place or take the whole lot out, then weld up the holes

[cwspellowe]

NOONE touch the 2056, that's MY idea!

[Poodle]

For it to be your idea you'd have had to come up with it two years ago, before i thought of it. Besides, you have an XUD, completely unrelated and therefore still an original idea.

[Arron]

Ko3s can be found on a certain van with a 3 bolt flange... basically bolt on

[Jukie88]

Any idea what van ??

[Ruan]

I think you'll all find that the GT2056 was suggested countless time by me and Con...

GT2052S or 2056S on a HDi would be perfect... Wouldn't be that difficult to fit if you spent some time designing some adapters to put things in the right place and making a proper exhaust - it's when people attempt to use the OE downpipe adapter things go up shit creek, it never lines up right and it always rattles on the bottom of the car....

But then you've got to find a mapper that will map it in well....

Chris currently has one for sale Jukie.

Lol Ruan, was being sarky. Can remember you two harping on about 2052/6s/v's for as long as i've been on the various forums. I'm actually looking for something a bit more specialized, keeping shtum though, don't want prices going through the roof.
