AdamB Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 In all honesty, not much. Just increase lag/change the powerband.The stock item has been proven to work upto and over 350bhp. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tonygt Posted July 30, 2012 Author Share Posted July 30, 2012 is this a waste then should i sell and how much for??? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mattyD Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 In all honesty, not much. Just increase lag/change the powerband.The stock item has been proven to work upto and over 350bhp.lol, you dont like aftermarket inlets ;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 Reckon you would need a port and polished head to match before you see any real bhp gains. Should increase power across the rev range though, mostly top end gain. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tonygt Posted July 30, 2012 Author Share Posted July 30, 2012 brought this for my other glanza v but think i might just put this on my forged 5e insteed now that what i brought it for orignally or if i get good offer i cant refuse??? it sentimental.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mattyD Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 would be alot better on the forged 5e with a big turbo mate, is kinda wasted on a td04 setup Quote Link to post Share on other sites
glanzagee Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 Like I said to you over the phone for what you want to do for now it's a waste of time putting it on Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AdamB Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 (edited) lol, you dont like aftermarket inlets ;)lol not that mate, but I think some people are miss-told information and believing what they say as it makes them money! Edited August 1, 2012 by AdamB Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bean Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Fit it and try it out on a dyno. There's never really been any before and after proof with any aftermarket inlets that have been made. So worth a try imo since you already have it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
shorty Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 I agree with adam tbh. 80mm tb is massive for a start im lookin for around 300 from my build and im only running a 60mm mr2 tb on a smaller custom inlet. the tmd one is big and great on a massive power car but you wont see a big gain if any on a small boost td04 set up. tbh prob wont see much on a big boost td04 setup either bang it on the 5e with a big turbo and it will work well though.

Bean Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 My mate has a stock 4e vf23 running 1.09 bar a racetech inlet and big throttle body. It made 252bhp. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AdamB Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 (edited) Got a dyno graph Bean?Is the VF23 the equivalent to the td04?imo numbers is pub talk, it may only make 130bhp up till 4500rpm. It's all about making the power useable for what you intend to use the car for.All you have to do is look at Spuddy's car, it makes 570bhp, but at 4000rpm it makes 63bhp! Thats 70bhp less than stock!

lew777 Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 mine is a forged 4e running 285 @ 1.4 bar on a td04l ive got a high race flow inlet to go on once its been remapped il post up the two graphs Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AdamB Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 I'd like to see that Lew, no doubt a "race" inlet will make more power off the same setup, but will it improve spool time? I doubt it unless the stock item becomes restrictive, which in most peoples setups it doesn't. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bean Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 (edited) i got mixed up its a vf28 not vf23. (we did put a vf23 on it once though lol) heres the graph. you can see its a little rich to keep the temps down.when we put a td04l on it before the vf28 it made 210bhp at 1 bar. this is a good dyno no silly numbers.the car pulls really hard and with the cusco mz plated diff its just foot to the floor through the corners and it drags it round at silly speeds! its shown 165ish on the clocks most times its out haha.
