Turbo Question....

[Jimlad]

Am I right in thinking that the CT20b turbo can easily be bolted onto my motor as is, simply replacing the CT26 ?

If this is the case then surely after buying one and getting my motor remapped I should be producing 300+ BHP ?

This is a cheaper solution than getting WI and a remap to get probably less than that with my current CT26 turbo.

You can pick up reconditioned units can you not ? ( £300 roguesystems )

This would keep me satisfied until next year when I start to play with the engine.

( all this CT20b, CT26 turbo talk makes me sound like I know what I'm on about... lol )

[ricomr2]

Im sure this topic came up before and the answer was yes...

I might be wrong though

[Jimlad]

mmm.... I'll have a quick search...

I might have Pizzaboy power soon..... :D

[ricomr2]

Woohoo!!! :D

[Jimlad]

yeah.. the original thread was posted by myself... DOH !!!

[ricomr2]

I thought that...

So is it a yes then?

[Jimlad]

yeah.... lol

I think I'll get the CT20b sometime in the near future. Then next year get some engine work done and also get an uprated Stage3 CT20b Turbo. Should see me good for 360bhp.

Nice sensible streetable turbo.... :D

[ricomr2]

Lol... Thats twice the power of mine :(

[Jimlad]

aaaaaah........

I'll let you have a shot of mine.... :D

[ricomr2]

So you keep saying mate... ;)

By the way, Rogue have a CT20b Turbo for 300 quid

[Jimlad]

yeah I noticed.... :)

As soon as my new credit card arrives..... cha-ching !

Then start saving for all the crazy engine work needing done for the stage3 ct20b.

[ricomr2]

Have you priced having the turbo fitted?

Dont think it'll be much as its bolt off bolt on.

Easy job for the local place ;)

[Jimlad]

yeah, I doubt it'll cost much either.

Also know that the local place will easily be able to do it for me. I've seen some cars in there before in parts with turbos lying about etc, so they know what they're doing.

[ricomr2]

Clicky

[Jimlad]

mmm..... if only I had an eBay account that was active ?!?!?

Someone buy it for me.. I'll give you £20 !! :D

[ricomr2]

I'll ask my bro to bid for it if you want.

Whats your limit??

[Jimlad]

I've sent you a PM mate..... :D

[ricomr2]

I've got it :P

[Jimlad]

if I'm right in thinking I should be able to run this on low boost with good results until I get some needed engine work done. :D

[John R]

You two having a nice chat? :D

[Jimlad]

didn't even notice it was just us two posting in the thread.... lol.

[KiwiMR2]

300 hundy will be a peice of cake.....just read a thread on US forums & had about 4 or 5 people getting what sounded like easy 12's on a ct20b....easy 280-330 odd hp with basicly stock parts with a bit more boost and good tuning.....go fo cold ;)

Cheers
