So looks like my turbo decided to **** itself didn't think it would happen to me but never mind.

It's a bit bad timing and to keep costs down I'm going to go with an Xman pd130 hybrid with pd170 internals.

Has anyone dynod a pd170 on 1.9?

I have the standard clutch setup and looking to take advantage of more torque and keep costs down, can you retain the DMF but put a slightly better clutch plate in?

Or will it destroy the DMF.

Torque was around the 300 lb ft mark, and will likely raise to 320/330 lb ft so don't see the point in going for a big power clutch kit.

Cheers

Ide also like to see how you get on mate. Just in case mine goes as its on 120k now and climing.

Yeah came as a bit of bugger will let you know how I get on, just wanting something that will drop in which the hybrid pd130 will but get little better power at same without breaking the bank.

I have to say thanks to John (Fabooka) he knows his ****.

It's likely a hybrid pd130 which is based on a pd170 internals will make 5 to 10 bhp more than a remapped pd150 so with a bit of luck touch 200 bhp which ain't bad for the price, the problem is now they can make more torque say 20-30 lb ft more than a well tuned pd130 setup so would be nice to take advantage of that extra little bit of torque, hence question of keeping dmf but putting different clutch plate in etc. Can't complain with turbo for the price though.

Cheers

Thought you had got a GTB to go on? :wonder:

 

Just do plenty of research on setting the stop screw and the vnt actuator once the turbos fitted.

Get a clutch, mines starting to go and running around 300ft/lb.

Just fit a clutch plate from CG

I'm still on a DMF with a helix 6 paddle and cover not had any problems yet even on the GTB at 2.1bar and the clutch has been fitted for last 30k
