jordan walker Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 Is there anyway you can tell wether it is a gen 1 or gen2 as from what i can gather the gen 1 turbos where gash where as the fixed the problems with the gen 2? Quote
MARC MOSS Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 Yea if its second hand and a gen one it will be fucked lol I fuckin hated mine it destroyed itself and ovaled the compressor housing.. Quote
Addymk2 Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 Always wondered how the gen 2s hold up... The Gen 1s were notoriously shite lol Quote
starletgt-shady Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 I'm running a gen 2 have been for over a year now at 1.4 bar making 234bhp Quote
Addymk2 Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 Fuck a duck. That's a cracking result! How does it compare to the standard CT9? Quote
starletgt-shady Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 Lot more pull and quicker response. The first one I had only did 600 miles at 0.6 bar and died so didn't expect much when I got it replaced but its done well. Won't make much more power on it so planning something else but not sure yet. Quote
Addymk2 Posted January 22, 2013 Posted January 22, 2013 Interesting... Ive only ever heard bad thins about them so it's nice to hear of a success story! They look pretty cheap too Quote
jordan walker Posted January 24, 2013 Author Posted January 24, 2013 Does this look like a gen 1 or a gen 2 the seller doesnt know as it came on an engine that they bought and has never used it any help apreciated Quote
