Daston Posted February 27, 2006 Share Posted February 27, 2006 Hi guys been thinking a few things at work today, 1) Is BHP per Ton directly linked to 0-60 and mid speed acceleration? 2) Thinking of an NA-T conversion is it posible to get a small turbo fitted then up grade when funds become avaliable like on a TT (ie bigger turbos etc) Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carl0s Posted February 27, 2006 Share Posted February 27, 2006 1) Is BHP per Ton directly linked to 0-60 and mid speed acceleration? Yes, undoubtedly. 2) Thinking of an NA-T conversion is it posible to get a small turbo fitted then up grade when funds become avaliable like on a TT (ie bigger turbos etc) Yes you could fit whatever size turbo you wanted, but it'd probably cost about the same for the small turbo as it would for the big one, so there's no point.

Daston Posted February 27, 2006 Author Share Posted February 27, 2006 Ah thanks Carlos was looking at the Boost Logic kit what sort of BHP would you get from a T61? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry dude, I'm not very knowledgable on the subject, but I suspect you'd be looking at a genuine 450 - 500bhp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Flat4_ire Posted February 27, 2006 Share Posted February 27, 2006 Sorry dude, I'm not very knowledgable on the subject, but I suspect you'd be looking at a genuine 450 - 500bhp. boostlogic reckon 500 to 550 rwhp, depends on fuel too of course etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobbeh Posted February 27, 2006 Share Posted February 27, 2006 Even more if its tuned and mapped correctly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homer Posted February 27, 2006 Share Posted February 27, 2006 It depends on your goals, 450bhp NA-T might be okay, but much more and you should really re-think if its the right choice. If you're going to do NA-T properly you need to lower compression which will mean a new bottom end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carl0s Posted February 27, 2006 Share Posted February 27, 2006 I don't think you'd want more than 400bhp through either the W158 5spd box, or the lower-spec'd NA A340E autobox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daston Posted February 28, 2006 Author Share Posted February 28, 2006 wow 400 is more than enough for me (until I get that power bug) mine is running through the W158 box at the moment, so if at a later stage I wanted to up to say 500 odd it would just be a case of swapping my W158 for a TT 6speed box and LSD?? Oh and of course a bigger Turbo/remapping etc. Oh anyone got any idea how much it would cost to fit the kit and get it running as I am gussin its no amature DIY job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
