dannysupratt Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 hi all. hope someone can help. a friend of mine has blown the 1st turbo on the exhaust side. he is looking at upgrading to a set of hybrid turbos but only wants to spend around £1000. his car is bpu'd and he wants to run it at around 400-420bhp at the fly. any help in the direction he should go is appreciated. cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tricky-Ricky Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 not that i know much buts isn't 400-420bhp at the fly Bpu anyway? Thats a very rare occurrence, most BPU are 350-390. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
couv3z Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 Thats a very rare occurrence, most BPU are 350-390. ok time to make myself look stupid:cool: but isn't bhp at the fly higher than the wheel? and there for from the bpu link that bpu is 400bhp wouldn't the fly be higher??

pa06has Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 he should buy my old jspec turbos - in excellent condition and at £250 its a very good price! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As i said 400FWHP is quite rare, rather than the norm, and nine times out of ten the result of over ambitious roiling roads;) and yes power at the wheels will be much less.

couv3z Posted August 12, 2008 Share Posted August 12, 2008 cool, sorry was tryin to be a **** just that bpu will be the next thing on the list after getting me car back lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannysupratt Posted August 12, 2008 Author Share Posted August 12, 2008 he wants to run it at around 400-420bhp at the fly. meaning that'l be target figures once the turbos are upgraded, whether that'l be a set of hybrids or single. hybrids seem to offer the best option with spooling up and adequite boost levels.
