Does anyone know the spec of the hybrid turbo used on Statlers demo ???

Cheaper than the €2.2k quoted for the LOBA 380 hybrid ??


I think steve said it was around £850 but you need to supply them with a turbo plus fitting costs.

Not sure on the spec or the company he used to hybrid the turbo, Hurdy might know.

The supplied turbo had to be mint too.

I think Hurdy posted up it was Turbo Dynamics   that did the Hybrid for Statlers  with a K24 wheel

@Mike Not so sure it has to be mint, although i do remember one company insisting it had to. But i think steve said it didnt matter.

@Yin Im pretty sure it wasnt turbo dyamics although i could be wrong :ashamed:

Im sure it was turbo dynamics and think it may have been Owen_lcr who's turbo turbo was refused for not being a minter but there are lots of threads on it

Mine was built by universal turbos. The turbo I supplied them was shot to pieces, but the parts are available to rebuild them.

Mine just has a larger comp wheel, but they couldnt/wouldn't tell me the size of it.  I do have a pic somewhere as I took to comp housing off to have a look.

Testing shows a faster spool leading to a very slightly higher boost hold at the top.  I doubt its much higher than 380 bhp anyway at a realistic dyno.  The sooner we start focusing on whp rather that flywheel figures the better imo.

The whole process for me cost less than buying a good used k04.

K24 is quite an old style of wheel now.

INA does his own version of the hybrid, but I don't know specs as I've not asked yet.  Uses a billet comp wheel I believe.

For me to be like Dom I need the same map twice.  I'm not planning on going back to shark lol

Just waiting on a come back from keith@APR

You have some catching up to do!
Superchips stage 1
superchips stage 2
superchips stage 3 (3 revisions)
revo stage 2+
PDtuning stage 2
Shark stage 3 ( 7 revisions)
Shark stage 1
Pdtuning stage 2
Revo stage 2

comins soon Revo stage 2+

Beat that :popcornsoda:

Well, I don't see any reason why you shouldn't try us then.

If you want to try our map before the Revo S2+, you won't have to pay anything unless you want to keep it and then I'll only charge the 50GBP Revo upgrade price.

FWIW, when you buy any Stage 1,2 or 2+ APR software at offered price, upgrades or downgrades to Stage 1,2 or 2+ are free.  You only have to pay for software again if you go ko4 with someone else's hardware kit besides ours.

Very generous offer Keith :happy2:

Quite a hard decision to make, as since I fitted the APR HPFP yesterday. then datalogged it and everything is running perfectly.
APR dealer is about 150 miles away, PDTuning Revo dealer is about 4 miles away. I'm still within the 30 day money back guarantee with Revo aswell. But then again, I dont want to using a relatively new map and have to get the engine rebuilt again :stupid: :stupid: :stupid:

I've been speaking to Greg @ APR this week with regards to getting a map for my Hybrid for my Eddy! He said this is something that would need to be tried and tested on my Car so, we're arranging a date for me to drop my car off to the guys to see what "magic" they can do!

I had APR on my 1st Car which was the '07 VW Polo GTI 1.8T and, loved it to pieces! Trialed it on my Eddy but, as I'm all about power felt the Revo gave that more punch so, that's why I went for that along with that fact that APR were parting company with many tuners that were local to me back then!

So, will see what they can do with my Car now! Hopefully it blows me away  :driver:
