are you the guy who bought the turbo kit the cituning one

jsdvtr 23rd September 2009 20:15

No mate just starting off now buying.

jsdvtr 27th September 2009 12:06

Is this the boost pipes i need or 3'' ones?

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/2-5-TURBO-INTE...d=p3286.c0.m14

Looking at a intercooler like this but the inlets are 2.25'' not 2.5'' and its not too big, seems perfect sort of size for low boost.

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Alloy-Front-Mo...d=p3286.c0.m14

I think going for a t25 turbo.
Can i buy any dump valve as long as get the t piece of the same car as what dump vavles for?
What bar map sensor should i get, etc.
Im buying a mf2 with 5th injector as going to be using that for time being.

jsdvtr 27th September 2009 12:09

Should i get a afr like this

Or a guage one or does it not really matter but these ones look smart as.

vtr inlet is 2.25" so although most wont use that size pipe its best to use the same as reducing and stepping the pipes will fuck up the boost, plus its around 10% loss in power for every 90 degree bend in your pipe work, try to keep bends smooth and have no abrasive angles, the intercooler thats brand new on ebay is also 2.25" so will keep in good with the system, if your serious about boosting your car do alot of research first mate

jsdvtr 28th September 2009 13:03

Is there anywhere i can buy one made but then it wont go with intercooler will it as wont be same unless intercooler is made for? Hows other people done theres?

stueyp 29th September 2009 07:14

All i can say is take it to the turbo doc, 500 quid job done. no shiny ass parts but who cares. at the end of the day its a saxo and is never goin to break any records!!

jsdvtr 29th September 2009 10:54

I want to do it myself and i dont want shoddy parts like some people on here though. Its getting done properly even on a budget setup to start off with.

saxohull 29th September 2009 11:11

Fair shout mate, The Doc as he is called has done lots of VTR conversions and a couple of VTS's too, they have all been running Months now without skippin a beat, Know what you mean about doing it yourself though. hows much do you think it will cost you in total?

the Turbo Doctor. his kit is exactly the same as cituning but home made, and a 5th of the price!!! the guy really knows his shit about turbo'd cars as he has over 15 experiance in modding cars.

But not sure to go turbo or bodies although the sound of bodies would be good and be more reliable on the cheaper option but would deffinately prefer to turbo if can so for same sort of money. Would like to get car around 0-60 in 7 secs and about 180bhp so 200bhp per tonne roughly.

If you go back a few issues in fastcar saxo180 did that with just 'normal' mods no bodies or turbo...

That doesnt really answer the question, does he have a website, phone number... you have any links to work he has done before???

Thanks. :y:

:y: intercooler will be ok, make sure you measure up. saxos are restricted for space which you will soon find out.

im not to sure about them pipe kits as the saxo is restricted for space so you will find half the kit wont be needed. if you mount the intercooler then take it to a company close to you they should be able to measure it up for you and give you what you need.
