scottieboi94 Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 Does or has anyone ran a speevision 2nd gen ct9 hybrid turbo before? Are they good and how do they compare to the ct9 upgrade turbo you can buy of ebay? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JamesD89 Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 I would rather not take the risk and get a tried and tested hybrid like the speedvision etc. Some of the claims in the description of that particular ebay unit are laughable, you may be able to get your own ct9 converted to a hybrid i was considering this, pricey but at least you get a stand up guarantee and a bit more piece of mind.

James I am currently running the ebay one mate and they go well tbf, my mate had one and said they werent bad apart from the oil seals go after a while so i though i would get one and see what its like Just wanted to know if it was worth upgrading to the speedvision, or more to the point, will it actually be any upgrade or give the same performance as the one i currently have? haha Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lawless Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 I'm running a speedvision mate had no problems at all never used an eBay one but from what I've read I wouldn't bother with it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scottieboi94 Posted May 6, 2014 Author Share Posted May 6, 2014 (edited) I'm running a speedvision mate had no problems at all never used an eBay one but from what I've read I wouldn't bother with it the gen2? if you have a standard ct9 could you take a pciture of the comparison betweent the two please? Also does the boost wear off near the end of the rev range with yours as mine does Edited May 6, 2014 by scottieboi94 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lawless Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 I got it second hand as part of a kit mate don't know if it's first or second gen but it pulls right up through the rev range and I can't do a comparison shot because it's on my car ATM :/ did yours say speedvision on the side of it ? I would just buy a turbo someone can vouch for although people seem to say speedvision arnt the greatest but mine seems good so far (touch wood) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scottieboi94 Posted May 6, 2014 Author Share Posted May 6, 2014 Why have people said there not the best? and speedvision have said the ebay seller has used there housing but different internals Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lawless Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 I don't no the ins and outs of it mate think it's more down to reliability more than anything but from what I can gather the most favoured of the ct9 hybrids is the tongs There are a lot of threads about this stuff have a read ;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scottieboi94 Posted May 6, 2014 Author Share Posted May 6, 2014 Ye a lot of people have recommended tongs but have said it gives more bhp high end when i want better acceleration not top speed Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lawless Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 I couldn't say if it will give you better acceleration having the speed vision as I've only had a standard ct9 and my speedvision.the comparison is a lot over a standard Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scottieboi94 Posted May 6, 2014 Author Share Posted May 6, 2014 What advantages does it have over the standard? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lawless Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 More powaaaaaa you won't get boost creep Havnt noticed any myself I would highly reccomend a hybrid over your standard turbo one of the best mods I've bought Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Lawless Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 Running a bar through mine mate takes it ok I believe the hybrids start running out of puff after a bar might be wrong jut going by what I've read off here mate Quote Link to post Share on other sites
scottieboi94 Posted May 6, 2014 Author Share Posted May 6, 2014 Ye ive heard that aswell, but speedvision said you can run up to 1.25 bar on your turbo on a track day Quote Link to post Share on other sites
