bigger turbo

[Gainzy]

My current spec is- front mount, decat, boostcontroller, sard ecu, ported manifold, HKS bov running 1bar ish atm. I am thinking of upgrading the turbo to tongs/ct9 hybrid but i don't want to go external wastegate, is it a simple case of just bolt on without changing the manifold? Whats the best boost to run on a hybrid aswell? Basically what else would i need for a good reliable set up? Is it also worth changing the actuator as I can control the boost with the boost controller?

Thanks

I think for.best results and more stable boost you'd be.better off with a new mani and external wastegate. unsure of sard ecus but.it would.need mapping to suit the new.turbo ideally.

I see, its the dreaded cracks with the manifolds was thinking off selling the ecu to buy a full turbo and go external and go for the emb, i want to keep some reliability

Not trying to swing you off the idea of a hybrid.and.it depends what you want from thwarting car. also I've.never.driven a hybrid turbod car. but i went for td04 months ago and its brilliant. got a full kit for about grand and Im just running it at .6 bar off the wastegate spring till i can afford to map the emb i have.

If.going hybrid though i would defo change the mani for a more free.flowing.one

Thanks for the reply's I might sell up the ecu for funds for a zisco mani and just go external waste gate and get the emb! This shit never ends lol

Amen to that mate, just bought wepr mani and hks actuator and now ive got my eyes set on a tongs td12, that means ive just lost aload of money on one manifold only to buy another and lost a lot on the actuator which wont be needed.
