Didn't get chance to take many pictures with the turbo off, focus was on getting it done.

Turbo off





bolted back on exactly as the old one came off. Haven't fitted injectors till it gets mapped so i can drive down. Had a run locally to chack for leaks and so far so good, not getting mapped till next week so i can make 100% sure everything is right. Boosts a little higher due to garrett actuator so i haven't been driving as normal, last thing i want is a melted piston. spool up is slightly louder on the new one due to it being unsilenced but nothing major.

Decided to tidy up behind the plate today, rather than having wonky holes decided to go for one big one.... angle grinder and a file...came out pretty well i think, will be hidden by the plate and only taken off for track etc so not majorly fussed, may even try a smaller plate offset and open it up a bit more...



Engine cover needs modding to clear the dump valve...but heres the engine bay so far



Modified recess in front with no plate





and how she sits

Was a long day yesterday, Up at 430 to get to Jabbasport in peterborough for 9am from liverpool.


wakey wakey


Average MPG on way
[img]http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs569.snc3/31058_10150189167895072_735470071_12555483_3006251_n.jpg[img]

light entertainemt on the way




Figures




MPG way home....


Fly fest


End time


Modified the plastic cover to fit over the dumpvalve too


Overall really happy with the figures, drives like a totally different car. under 3k drives as it did and returns good mpg. then over 3k to 7400 (raised the rev limiter) pulls so hard and sounds mental. Grips really well in the dry too which is what i was after, useless power if it only spins up. Boost is at 1.4 then settles to about 1.2

Big thanks to Jabbasport for mapping it, bunch of friendly guys, great premises too. Sorry no pics on the rollers as they dont let public in there i presume for health and safety.

Spec list is as follows


Octavia VRS

K03s hybrid (CR turbos) with garrett actuator
Forge front mount intercooler
Pipewerx turbo back 2.5" system.
Bosch green injectors
Walbro 255 fuel pump
Derestricted air box with pipercross filter
Forge 007p
Silicone TIP
N75 and other crap removed
S3 maf
Modified crash bar and bumper


Next things to come with be ARBs porsche brakes as i dont think these will be up to track abuse and possibly some coilover....we'll see

Looks smart on the grill, but maintains the 'standard' look
