Trig Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 Is that shipping to uk?? Thats cheap if it is?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trig Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 erm and isnt there some intercooler pipes missing?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prof. Monkey Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 Good find, these are what Turbofit, apparently use and seem to be reliable. The cost they charge is the fitting as it is quite labour intensive. Also on NA-T is DaveH, he has been making Turbo kits for the NA for a while now and has proven power, if I remember correctly he has a big power NA-T car. He is also a sponsor of that forum, under Boostwerx. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trig Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 So would this be all the parts i would need to convert it?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 turbofit build there own manifolds for the na-t kit.. they dont use that one;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bowk1uk Posted August 27, 2006 Author Share Posted August 27, 2006 just emailed x power for shipping costs and how much the intercooler pipeing is think you also need fuel pump and some sort of fuel computer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DannyW Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 I went out with GazzaGSI in his car last weekend and it's truly phenomenal! I'm in the process of saving/borrowing to afford the kit myself, i'll be using turbofit by the look of it as the workmanship looks 2nd to none! Just a little pricey at over £4000 fitted but i couldnt sell my N/A and put £4k towards it and get a TT with the same power as i will have with the N/A-T kit.

GazzaGSi Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 Hiya, Here is acouple of pics to show you the install: I think Turbofit have done around 8 NA-T conversions now or maybe acouple less with acouple in their garage having it done. As far as I know there isnt another company in the UK that has done as many and as reliable as they have been so far. As mentioned the manifold and IC pipework is all fabricated on site to ensure a perfectfit and the quality of work is unreal. I didnt expect the work to of such a high standard when I collected my car 3 months ago. Afew people absolutely slate xspower stuff on here, well I'll gve it a chance and if things do start to go wrong then I may slate it too but I drive the car fairly hard and been on the strip afew times with it now and never had a problem. And IF something did go wrong I have a complete 1 year garuntee on my engine anway, which is the garuntee Turbofit give. If it breaks within a year, they fix it. Cant ask for much more than that compared to some cowboys out there. For £ for power the kit is very, very good. It has almost doubled the power my NA was originally. There are acouple of other things you may need to purchase, for example: uprated injectors, fuel pump, safc2, avcr etc only if you are after a fair bit more power. If you have anymore questions just let us know. Cheers Gaz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daston Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 Hi guys I have got the parts for that kit but got them seperatly and not together just make sure you get the turbo that is for the non VVTI model as it has a 3" inlet so clears the distributor. I am just waiting on some funds clearing into my account then I will be calling Mkivstore to get it booked in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DannyW Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 Please keep us informed especially regarding how complete the kit is as i fancy fitting it myself if it saves lots of money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daston Posted August 27, 2006 Share Posted August 27, 2006 as far as I know it will include everything apart from the air/fuel managment and things like fuel pump and injectors also I think XS-Power do not do IC pipes yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
