WOW thats insane for that price??!! what kind of power would be seen from that upgrade, also would NOT like to fit that :surprised: but interested :drool:
-
it should be good for 400bhp i would think :driver: and it should not be that bad to fit as you are just taking off the old system and putting a new one on but then the car will need to be mapped for the turbo upgrade
-
who would do a map for it? would a company (such as CC) write a new map? f so how much would a new map cost :scared:

i think you would ned to get the kit and then leave the car at jbs or awesome or another tuner for them to fit and then they can map the car on the road and i would think you would need a fuel pump aswell but it would shift :driver:

then might get an R32 next year for 6 months or so before the GTI-R :jumpmove: :jumpmove:

If you look at JKM's K04 Upgrade Kit offerings you'll see what else is needed, and what is ESSENTIAL!
http://www.jkm.org.uk/performance/jkmtfsi-K04-upgrade.htm (http://www.jkm.org.uk/performance/jkmtfsi-K04-upgrade.htm)
So, anyone wanting to buy this kit (Garrett turbo reckoned to be better than Bosch K04) would have to add a few thousand squid.
I'm amused to read that the reason for sale is the driver's disqualification. This is kit guaranteed to propel you very quickly indeed into licence losing territory.

....Joe, you do realise don't you that the "GTI-R" is not guaranteed to happen. At best it's 50/50 currently.
Good deal as the R32 now is, and we know how much you love anything that's a good money deal, you might be stuck with it for much longer than 6 months. Great car though!
:happy2:

400hp on a front wheel drive car.....not so sure on that one!

why would i be stuck with it?? :confused: if you think about it the they are going for 16.5k new!! over 6 months of driving it people will still be selling second hand ones for more money that i bought a new one for, so re-sale should be loss of about 1k, and if i liked it alot id probs invest my best to get 300bhp from it :drool:

....When I said "stuck with it" I didn't mean financially! :rolleye: - I meant it is likely to be difficult to sell - Due to lack of demand? I may be wrong of course.

....Personally, I'm not inclined to ask Regal about anything! But that's a different story and one I won't expand on.
It depends what you want from a car and how you use it. Car's like Regal's and Awesome's are demonstrators for all the gear they are marketing. They aren't built to last - Just see how long they keep their demo cars for. Plus it doesn't cost them so much to build or maintain or repair/modify etc.
But, as always, ETTO :happy2:

That ATP kit looks good - just maybe a little too much though - if it was the GT28RS ...
