Now the bits are comming together . . . . . .

The s60r manifold arrived from Sweden today.

photos aint working...

[Shamran]

But Why.... Working on it.

[daza-b]

they are working now

Just wondering - if you are going to all this trouble - why you sticking with the 16T? Why not take the logical step & get the 19T - or is it just that the budget wont stretch?

I did not know that the 19T was the logical step

And it is difficult to find one here in Denmark, the 16t i have been looking for
for several month.

[Wobbly Dave]

Well then we are in time - given that this is just the design phase. Would you be interested if we (as a forum) could locate the item. I have a local contact/friend/former T5 owner in Halesowen who often travels to Denmark (not that the shipping is a major issue).

[Shamran]

Thanks... i am looking for around 300 hp, but later on a 19t surely i the way. :-)

Standard gearbox, clutch, rods, what can it withstand ?

[Wobbly Dave]

My Betsy has been dyno-ed over 300bhp. You can use standard internals & GB to do that. I am not certain you can get to 300 on a 16T & certainly not without some custom remapping.

All the v. quick cars are using 19Ts or Garretts. Don't get me wrong the 16T is a very capable blower.

I would recommend putting the 19T on now - even if you don't map it up it will save you money having to do it again later. price difference in the UK is not that big.

[Shamran]

Remapping is obvious...I have 2 16t. if they can be exchanged for a 19t it would be great.

[Wobbly Dave]

depends on how much we can get for them.

[Shamran]

What about a 18t. What`s the different 18 vs 19 ?

[Wobbly Dave]

http://www.stealth316.com/2-3s-cfm-maps.htm

Marginal higher flower rates for the 19T

15g 428cfm
16t 435cfm
18t 485cfm
19t 500cfm

10 cumecs (cubic metres per second) = 212cfm. Arguably not much but again its down to the do it once do it right principle.

[Shamran]

Ok. Thanks.

19t with a 20g wheel ported and clipped ?

[Wobbly Dave]

Yes they are 10 a penny those

20g does flow quite a bit more air, hmm lol

It really depend's what you want to use the car for mate?? i ran a 16t with similar mods to you and for get up and go you could'nt beat it...268WHP/456nm, if you drive the car hard at high speed's often then yes go for a bigger turbo but i think with a good map you will be happy with the 16t and better of money wise contact HLM and ask for a copy of my map im sure it would only cost you £150(ecu exchange)
