good progress shaun, how much it cause for the gearbox rebuild if u dont mind me asking.

olee boost is the way lol :D

cheers rich,gear box price was best part of 800 quid,as i said back a page the life time warrinty with the diff is the best part of it! i cut that bottom hose where i did so that ive got minimal pipe work ;) only got a foot of pipe work from header tank to t-piece.

cheers jon,it was a while ago wasnt it :rolleyes: no i never odered 1,saves messing about with pipe work as mine now has a place an there isnt much play with when you add boosted parts :p

That battery tray looks nice and shinny:)

What did you use to paint it? spray can or hammerite?

17-05-2008, 09:44 PM
looking good mate. nice progress

are you using normal gearbox oil or uprated oil. Its just when i used to run a MA box with LSD few years back i recommend to use uprated shockproof oil which helps with the diff. just thought would pass on the info.

17-05-2008, 09:47 PM
cool. Agreed with rich get some uprated oil in there if you not put oil in already. Will help a little bit.

Get on msn you gay!

20-11-2008, 06:21 PM
what bhp you going for shaun

shaun 106 gti
20-11-2008, 06:24 PM
over 300bhp at the fly,same as colins power really...

106turbo
20-11-2008, 06:24 PM
shaun would that not be better especially with running the new engine in, you can use all the rev range then and vary the loads on the pistons, which will help seal the rings up. not hard to change the turbo over.

shaun 106 gti
20-11-2008, 06:27 PM
but i get pissed of as it is with the room situation,it will be ok dude:)

fred
20-11-2008, 06:32 PM
and you sold the old turbo didnt you?

dannygti
20-11-2008, 06:36 PM
shaun is the new turbo a gt28rs?

fred
20-11-2008, 06:45 PM
nah GT2871 hahaha

106turbo
20-11-2008, 06:46 PM
danny i been trying to get him to go for the gt2871r lol

shaun 106 gti
20-11-2008, 07:06 PM
no fred my old turbo is in my car boot

as for turbo guys well i was going to buy a gt28rs but dean has got me thinking bigger lol

dannygti
20-11-2008, 07:12 PM
id go with dean on this one. gt2871r and run less boost to start with, then you can always turn it up. plus your using forged items? i say go for it.

shaun 106 gti
20-11-2008, 07:13 PM
i suppose yes,but i would of been happy with over 300bhp,yes danny forge internals

dannygti
20-11-2008, 07:16 PM
well if your happy mate then you dont really need the bigger one, its nice t get a target figure but its so easy to start chasing numbers. its how it drives is more important than being the most powerful thing on the road.

106turbo
20-11-2008, 07:16 PM
do it you know it makes sense!

fred
20-11-2008, 07:17 PM
less boost, more ignition advance...
