Exactly which mappers still use CR hybrids and get consistent fantastic results?

Boo, I was hoping for a reply from CR to brighten up my day :(

Guess they have moved onto the next forum in the hope that I don't follow them.

It is only lunchtime, give them a chance to respond

 

I expect they're busy dealing with last fridays complaints and queries

Well guess they've had more than enough to respond

 

If I where the MD of a  reputable company and thought I was receiving unfair coverage of my wares, I'd be doing my best to put it right

I read this thread with interest. I have no idea who CR are, but when you buy a turbo you don't expect it to blow up due to supposed oil contamination. I have an IHI VF34 on my car and.....touch wood.......it's been running perfectly for over 50,000 miles, with me regularly changing the pil and filter myself.

 

This is in spite of having experienced the dreaded oil pressure warning light coming on. Pulled over straight away and got it relayed home, dropped the sump and changed the pick up pipe and oil pump, reassembled and everything was fine.......especially the turbo. A properly designed and built turbo mind you!!  

 

The only thing that has failed on my instalation, is the Milltec stainless exhaust system. But to be fair to Milltek they stand by their lifetime warranty. Can't fault them. Saves me having to keep polishing the tail pipes, if I just keep having the back box replaced hey?

Thought id add a bit a pleasant news to the thread ;-) ive taken the plunge and bought k03s hybrid with the help of jbs Chesterfield. With supporting mods should safely get 300bhp :-)

Good news buddy. Be interesting to see the progress and how you get on with it.

Sent from my Samsung S3

Myt start a build thread when I get home matey been wanting to do one for ages. Only had the car 18 months lol

Got 10 weeks before the wife gives birth :-)

Not seen any other k03s hybrid make 300bhp other than the beach buggy hybrid

Make sure you change your rods buddy

Im on it pal :-) strip down and rebuild for the old beast

Heads up, CRTurbos, are on a restricted group; cannot post or send pm's. Based on this and other readings, I don't foresee this changing.

how comes Colin? was hoping to see their response?!

They've moved onto ebay now guys. If u type in k03s hybrid only theirs come up.

Well that says it all....

CRap turbos....good riddance!

Look on the bright side....now they've disappeared we shouldn't have to many more members buying there wobbly turbos!

going to bump this old post.

whats the best way of going for more power these days, K03S Hybrid?
i dont have a blank chequebook so its about bang for buck as i'd also need to consider the supporting mods, FMIC, probably a turbo back exhaust, injectors and another remap.

 

i think i have the other mods already, still learning about my new car, previous owner seemed a bit 'optimistic/clueless' on specifics although the car does have history of owners from this forum but no build thread that i could find.

Depends if you want more power that is driveable with the least possible lag, or more power end of story.

 

If it is the first, then hybrid, is the way to go, keep below 300 bhp and you should be safe on the standard rods.

 

If you want the second, then it is rods minimum, and then get a good healthy bank balance as it is going to get expensive.
