Interesting, looks like payday will bring more spends! @coskev what's your driving style like? Do you gun it at low revs? With a 2260 and nozzles you're probably about 360-400 ft/lbs which is bang on where I'll be soon! @stevobeavo I didn't know sachs did an uprated DMF, isn't there options just the standard DMF and then a lighted SMF..? @chris-H would like to hear back after you've fitted it mate! And I might know that golf lad you speak of.. Perhaps lol. @duck yeah I get what you mean mate, but even torque limited on a 2260 will be hella quick! It's just low down, with a 2260 your suppose to use the revs more anyway Might send Piotr a message

That would be great, doesn't need to be a proper write up, just how it feels and if any issues arise etc So you'll be looking at a safe 230ish bhp with that turbo, a lot of people continue to run the standard DMF at 1756 levels. I've been toying with the idea of a 2260, keeping it at around 270bhp to keep within the camshaft limits.. But really don't want to go SMF. So it's either sachs sre kit with OEM DMF and torque limited map, or sachs sre with xman DMF and more aggressive map.. Hmmm

@coskev Hoping you could chime in since you've got it fitted. Any issues? And what ft/lbs you running? Thanks

Oo please do give it a review once fitted for the benefit of those considering it.. Did you get the full kit? And what sort of power you running? If I was to go for it, I'd probably only want the flywheel, as I've got a brand new sre clutch kit sat waiting to be fitted. The one thing I don't understand is, if DMFs are tuned by the manufacturers to specific applications (our pd130/pd150s), then wouldn't the xman 2.0 CR flywheel (which probably uses stronger springs) just be stiffer and maybe transmit noises like an SMF due to it having stiffer damping springs in the construction :-/ Maybe I'm thinking too much into it lol

Guys I want to hear from those who have the uprated xman DMF fitted. What power you running, and for how long? I'm mainly concerned with the DMF, not the Kevlar clutch and plate. Hopefully opinions from those that actually have it fitted please Cheers

Just had a look, might be different to the one I need. Thanks anyway, GLWS.. Free bump!

The plug and play loom, is that the Kufatec or vw Teesside one? Got a link to them? I've got a mk4 golf and wondering if the loom is the same in the fab, will be interested if so. Thank you

Bump

Guys I've got a mk4 golf (ARL 150), I'm going the 2260 route soon and I've been speaking to xman. He suggested the cost effective tubular short manifold in place of the more extravagant ones.. But the short manifold doesn't hold the turbo in the stock position. So would require a custom downpipe. Does anyone on here run this short manifold? If so, how have you got a downpipe for it? Is it just a case of getting the normal downpipes used for 2260 conversions and having some sort of adapter/flange that will mate it to the turbo? Appreciate everyone's knowledge on this, Thanks
