Ihi Turbo kit

[JCM308]

Yeah Guy I understand that, I meant in my comment for any other aftermarket kit, which i do understand the reasons why apr or oettinger couldnt program for it but does mean people with apr/oettinger would have to look elsewhere for ecu tuning

Guy please correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't the APR stage 3 upgrade use a Garrett GT28 turbo? Would this then mean that if you fitted one of these you could have a modified version of this software installed to go with the other mods you have (if not the same mods included in the stage 3 kit)?

JCM it certainly does have that kit was just putting out other options for people

Sorry I wasn't 100% clear, I meant if you got one of these manifolds and fitted a GT28 (as I would look at doing cause i have one in my garage) could you just get a modified version of the APR stage 3 software to compensate for the BIGGER turbo?

now that one i will leave for Guy

Yes, stock turbo ....... at about 5000rmin in 2nd gear whilst rolling it will wheelspin suddenly at full throttle these days ..... Standing start will see wheelspin through 1st, 2nd and at least midway through 3rd.

It is now making over 170kw up from the std 110kw and torque is approaching 370NM and whilst having power figures to be happy with has become tedious to drive smoothly.

Polo setup not meant for ultimate power. Bigger and better tyres might have helped but I can't be bothered to try and want to move on.

I have basically the same setup as you... Mine doesnt wheelspin all over the place.. YEs from strading start but not rolling start in second gear?

Ive got decent tyres on it..

The APR stage 3 kit has a heap more parts than just the turbo. The software tuning is so precise & matched to the hardware - I doubt you would get good results (or even safety of your engine components) by mixing & matching parts unfortunately.

Things like 5 bar MAP sensor, 5 bar FPR, Bosch motorsport injectors, Maf housing with flow straightener etc etc etc.

No use having a big turbo if you can not supply fuel & air at the required levels!

www.goapr.com.au is a good place to start mate.

If it's anything like C-Cs custom settings, you can probably only add timing, not fuel or boost.

Yeah already started there thats why I asked here.

[JCM308]

Is there anyone that will do a custom tune for the Polo's?

Unitronic will.

[JCM308]

Unitronic will.

Have they had good results? Anyone on here had a tune by them? Do you have any more info on them (website etc)?
