Hybrid turbo

Featured Replies

Hello everyone just wondering I been looking into going for a hybrid turbo and I only want around 205-215bhp.

I have looked into a pd130 turbo with gt1749vc internal. Would I be able to get them kind of figure?

210 is achievable yes, but I would advise clutch, front mounted intercooler as essential complementary upgrades to make use of the turbo to its best.

I have got a FMIC already and my clutch is a standard sach clutch but only done 20k on it but would change it when it needed to what kind of torque figure I could get

Probably around 330 lb/ft, maybe a bit more.  Stock clutch "might" cope with it if you had it mapped to limit the low down torque and bring in all power in above 2500 rpms.

Ok then thanks mate is there any other turbo you would look at as I use it for my daily driver but in the near future maybe be use on track days too

I've got a pd150 hybrid turbo on mine and currently I am still running a standard clutch. I am careful with the way I drive it and I have had no issues at all so far :)

What power are u running if you don't mind me asking?

Flip of the coin compared to Dan, but I am also running a PD150 hybrid currently at around 200bhp and around 290-300ft/lbs, and I will often boot it from low revs in 2nd gear, and in 6th on dual-carriageways to save dropping a cog. Still on standard clutch and about to roll onto 98k, and I've had no problems thus far....

 

It's all luck of the draw though.

From my experience a map around a standard clutch is no fun!

Once you get it all done then you'll feel that you want more!

Another option is the GTB1756. It will run 220-230hp no probs. There is a chap selling them on here for circa £500 with a manifold to fit Fabia's.

Don't suppose you know which user it is? I've had a look through the for sale items with no avail.

Xman750

What hybrid turbo did you get?

Is the gtb1756 a straight swap?

Erm it's a garret pd130 with the internals from a pd170 :)

No you need the manifold that xman750 can supply with the GTB1756. The Hybridised Garrett pd130's with pd170 internals are a straight swap.
