Know the Loba guys very well now and their product range with the way they go about things and their hybrids are the best. Their stuff lasts like OEM, unlike other turbo builders whose hybrid units never do.


Very very interested in this, hoping for some good numbers mate!

Not sure on numbers as its all dyno specific.

But if I have around 216hp currently, I think an extra 10hp from the intake is realistic, the hybrid should flow better and also allow me to run more boost so matbe another 30hp gain there.

So 250-260hp is a realistic target i think, who knows tbh, its uncharted territory.

Poor times. Muchos work required. 

Last run in a second.  Tried various maps with differing boost ppressures etc.  Car does not like higher boost at all.

1st and 2nd gear are completely redundant.  My launches have been horrendous

Bad news then Si. :sad1:

What were your times anyway?

If you are having issues with the higher boost with APR I may well stick with the Revo for a while - or at least until after the 30-130 day.

Is it just that the map is too aggressive Si, or is it simply that the engine won't stand up to it?

Just checked fault codes as it keept going into limp.  Tracked the cause to the connector on the DV not being on fully.  About to try again.

BTW keith did a 12.2@110mph :notworthy:
