Beastmode panda Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 hybrid or td04. Cheaper to go td04 believe it or not! I have just swapped the td04 kit on to my ep91, first drive today. I fucking LOVE it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Jozinobi Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 Safest and with minimal of fuss or additional tuning would be the direct placement Tongs CT9 RB Spec which is a fully rebuilt ct9 with enlarged wastegate penny for better boost control.Other options are hybrid ct9 which will fit your manifold but ideally needs additional tuning to reap the benefits and are notorious for blown seals/rebuilds. Td04 will set you back a whole new setup of manifold, turbo and downpipe (ct9 adapter plate is possible but limits full potential) with only low boost possible without additional tuning/mapping and fueling limiting its potential. Cheapest/best option is a 2nd hand working CT9b unless you feel the urge to upgrade.Ro55ifumi (John) and others who have used the RB Spec can vouch of the efficiency for its purpose.Joz Quote Link to post Share on other sites

scoobykilla Posted June 7, 2012 Author Share Posted June 7, 2012 Anybody know where i can get a RB spec then as i am wanting little hassle with different manifolds and that just now ??? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Josh@TunerLifestyle Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 I've got a ct9 hybrid and making 200bhp LOVE the instant boost! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DavidAshton Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 In your situation I have and would again just go for a second hand CT9, you can pick them up for peanuts.10 second hand CT9's probaly equate to the cost of 1 RB spec. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beastmode panda Posted June 7, 2012 Share Posted June 7, 2012 ill be joing you by the end of the months just got my last few bit through TD04 FTWyeah man best choice ive made! suprisingly cheap and for great benefits. It's SO much different to the ct9 turbo though man it kicks in much later and but when it DOES kick in, it's pretty brutal haha. mine is upmapped as i finished it yesterday lol.also, i thought that mesh was supposed to make your turbo spool proper loud, mines not loud AT all with mesh on :s/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
