CMR Posted March 26, 2009 Share Posted March 26, 2009 Thought id post up some feedback for Geo.Got my hybrid at the back end of last year but didnt fit it straight away. It was painfree ordering, and geo got it to me in record time It was finally fitted a couple of weeks ago now and I did have a few minor problems especially one with boost creep, Geo was very helpful in sorting these out and suggesting fixes in my setup, and what he suggested was bang on and worked perfectly.Now, its working properly so a big thanks to Geo is due for putting up with my PM's!Recommend anyone to get one of the Tongs hybrids, be it the GT spec or the new TD one.. you cant go wrong!Cheers mate,Craig Quote Link to post Share on other sites
P-ROONEY Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 got im turbo yesterday morning ,thanks enzo,,good service,tong turbo is the one to get, Quote Link to post Share on other sites
briggers Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 realised i didnt have boost creep my decat was off centre and needed to file it down for the actuator to open the waste gate. now sorted running just under 1 bar and its going well. im now used to the power which sucks a bit lol but i can now go faster than :civic type rs - whereas before they were just creeping away from me focus st - bmw 2.8 etc if you want an all rounder get a tong turbo. at just under 1 bar i can keep up with this and thats where the turbo comes alive so with a decent map on a ecu and 1.3 bar this would be a killer. unfortunately i dont have a forged engine so scared to take the bosst any higher.

kevy-glanza Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 It's about time that I did this so here it goes;I ordered the GT Spec hybrid when my standard CT9b decided to slowly but surely give up. It turns out that Enzo is indeed a good chap and easy to talk to when you've got questions - the turbo itself looks sweet by the way when you first get it out of the box. I put on the new turbo and took it for a spin and was confused as it felt the same but didn't run out steam high up. I need to explain that this was on the standard poo actuator (I was waiting for mine to come through the post), and I suddenly realised that this was while it was boosting to just 0.5 bar - this felt the same as my old turbo which always crept up to 0.8 bar. I finally got the actuator on and holding a steady 0.7 bar of boost and it feels alot better. I keep increasing it up slightly to try and get it to 0.8 bar until I get to do some more shopping.Considering that I'm currently on a stock manifold, gutted cat and standard exhaust it still hits full boost (0.7 bar so far) by just before 3500 rpm. Anything within 3500 to 6500 ish and I'm consantly grinning. I've never been able to use pretty much all of the available revs because there wasn't any point before. The other thing is that I used to suffer from really bad boost creep, even when it was completely stock (minus the boost restriction) and that has completely gone too, even with not much on the inlet side.All in all I'm a very happy bunny and feel that I have made the right choice. I just can't wait to sort out the entire exhaust and up the boost and fuel.Kevin Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jasonglanza Posted July 24, 2009 Share Posted July 24, 2009 well, Tong CT9 Hybrid turbo was fitted yesterday at last evrything was fine when mounting it etc etc. All i can say is its a huge improvement from a standard CT9 really picks up revs more easily and delivers more power and keep pulling at high revs (and only at 0.8 bar of boost im running), really satisfied with the product and with the services Enzo gave me regarding communication and shipping!I recommend this turbo to anyone who wants more power and pleasure in driving Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Top guy to deal with, kept me up to date with what was happening.Cheers mate! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chris.Stewart Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 Just another post to say thanks again to enzo, always happy to help on the phone with any problems setting up actuator etc, really friendly guy.Also to say the car made 194.7 bhp at the fly at 0.8 bar, and at just above 6k rpm, waiting on my fpr coming so i can increase the fuel pressure so i can raise the boost to 1 bar safely! Will send enzo the graphs once its been finally set up with fpr!Cheers again dude! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kevy-glanza Posted November 15, 2010 Share Posted November 15, 2010 I've got to do this again because my previous feedback was fine but...I've had this on my car now for a good 20 months, and for the past 3 I've been running 1 BAR boost (even tried 1.2 for a bit and that felt savage) and I'm in love with it again. I only got it as a replacement initially, but having put together the bits needed to actually have some fun, and finally turn up the boost it's brilliant. The engine bits on their own are as follows;GT Spec turboMeshed intakeHKS actuatorTubular stainless manifoldModified down-pipeJapspeed exhaustJapspeed intercoolerNo BOVNew OEM radSamco rad hosesModified breatherNGK plugsMagnecor LeadsFSE fuel pressure regulatorNick Jones fuel pumpJam Racing fuel cut defenderBoost starts to come in nice and early but builds up progressively and comes in so smoothly - and the noise is immense. Now, I'm not sure what power it has now, and to be honest I don't think I really care too much but I'm very, very happy with it as it is for now. All I'd like next in terms of engine tuning, is a proper ECU and some more boost, but that'll have to happen when funds allow again I guess.Kev Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mattb504 Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 I got my GT spec turbo today( also fitted it ha!). I've set it 0.8 and in so impressed how its pulls really shocked me! This the best £492 I've spent for sure!I like also to say a huuge thank you to Enzo! Was a great help he rang me straight away when I inboxed him asking about the turbo. He explained what I needed to run and what was safe. Answered all of my questions and also didn't get anoyed with for keep texting him ask if he had received yet really a top guy. I will keep in contact with him and do a lot more business with enzo.ThanksMatt Quote Link to post Share on other sites
