GT86-Ian 351 Report post Posted November 26, 2013 No breather kit or 3 bar map sensor on this one then Adrian ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fensport 76 Report post Posted November 27, 2013 No breather kit or 3 bar map sensor on this one then Adrian ? Hi Ian, yes he is having the 3 bar map sensor and overboost cut, but no breather as he wants a very basic install, it still has 2nd standard cat which will keep the power down ... I'm loving the flexibility of the turbo kit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GT86Jay 202 Report post Posted November 27, 2013 Will be interesting to see how this responds on a completely stock car. Even stock exhaust? Wonder how it'll sound. Best of all more power on 7" stock rims!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fensport 76 Report post Posted November 27, 2013 Little update .... the 2nd cat has gone it's so restrictive so it's binned!! Stock exhaust is doing well though Will finish the mapping in the morning 1 Rab reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kodename47 446 Report post Posted November 28, 2013 Little update .... the 2nd cat has gone it's so restrictive so it's binned!! Stock exhaust is doing well though Will finish the mapping in the morning So cat config? How much does the stock system restrict on this setup? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fensport 76 Report post Posted November 30, 2013 So cat config? How much does the stock system restrict on this setup? No cat on this one, the stock exhaust isn't so bad at stage 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GT86Jay 202 Report post Posted November 30, 2013 How does it go with the Stock wheels and tyres? Have you been able to get the most out of the turbo or are the tyres the limit on this one? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
