Attero Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 Cheaper to do a TT conversion, plus you can get more out of it in the long run. With an NA-T, you are limited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Mitchell Posted May 24, 2010 Author Share Posted May 24, 2010 My TT autobox maybe for sale soon mate. Also i will have loads of TT parts coming up next month if your interested like: 1st and 2nd CW decats and restrictor ring Walbro fuel pump RS*R catback exhaust TT turbo pipes TT inlet manifold TT throttle body may very well be interested jamesy, i know i need the autobox too and all the wiring looms. then surely its just a case of dropping it all in and connect it all up? what with the dash cluster thing?? thanks guys im sort of feeling bit better now i know what to do next- paul at whiffbitz is doing that single kit thats another option but like said above i might be limited Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamesy Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 Much better to go all out TT rather than NA-T if u can mate - much more potential espeically if you go bpu and/or single later too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr_jekyll Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 Cheaper to do a TT conversion, plus you can get more out of it in the long run. With an NA-T, you are limited. your never limited. na-t is the same as going single , if you spend the money there is no reason why you cant get the same results as a tt thats gone single . the only limiting factor will be how deep your walet is.

Rob_Mitchell Posted May 24, 2010 Author Share Posted May 24, 2010 yeah when speaking to you before craig i know its possible and the research i have done on it shows it can be done, but to be honest the funds for tt conversion suit me better i think... how much roughly can i get a engine,gearbox and everything else needed for? obviously low mileage is recommended?

dr_jekyll Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 well this is how i worked things out na na na-tt 330bhp £1.5-2k na- na-t basic 330bhp £1-2k tt- single stage 1 550ish bhp £5-8k na-t stage 2 550ish bhp £5-8k i looked through weeks and weeks and many pages of reading with a calculator and it all levelled out pretty much . UNLESS you are paying someone els for labour. then the tt would come in cheaper because for the na-t stage 2 its pretty much and engine strip down and rebuild with low comp pistons . im not saying tt isnt the best way to go by any means, i just think there are many miss placed doubts of turboing the ge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nevins Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 As for the dash cluster depending on year if its a facelift you will have a boost gauge built in if its prefacelift you aint got to worry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Attero Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 I heard NA-T's are only limited to something between stock TT and BPU levels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackso11 Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 you can get more out of an NA-T than stock TT and TT-BPU but you have to throw lots of money at it. Also, NA-T and you are done until you have lots more cash to go next stage. TT and you can do things like BPU to get a bit more power.

Rob_Mitchell Posted May 24, 2010 Author Share Posted May 24, 2010 ill just save a bit and go from there, if a tt engine and gearbox pops up on here then ill go for it and prep it before it goes in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Raven Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 Ha, starting to feel the same as me huh. Yeah its a bugger isnt it all your grand plans work out and get done then you get bored. TT it and then go from there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Mitchell Posted May 24, 2010 Author Share Posted May 24, 2010 Ha, starting to feel the same as me huh. Yeah its a bugger isnt it all your grand plans work out and get done then you get bored. TT it and then go from there well to be honest everything else is done- bodywork,interior all trimmed, new coilovers, brand new wheels and tyres. it seems a shame to sell it and buy a tt so ill prob drop the engine and gearbox in myself. lol all that money spent on chrome and polishing everything all needs to be done again lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackso11 Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 yeah if I had done as much as you to the body and interior I would want to keep it and transplant the lump for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Konrad Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 Like sleeping with the wife's younger sister? (Blimey can't believe I said that, and I am joking before anyone takes offence) I like that one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abz Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 If it is just power that you are hungry for then soon you will want a single turbo, then a big single. You should be able to enjoy your car cruising along, I love poodling along in mine & then sometimes giving it the beans. I am edging towards a single turbo as well but I doubt I'd get bored with the TT setup, nothing comes close to the effortless drive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
