    yeah, Forge i not as good as you might think, specially with a upgraded turbo they will fail.
    do you got any idea wich Frankenturbo hybrid you are running, F4 or F23 version?

      I am running the F4 on the standard manifold for now, as they sent me the wrong one, Right one is coming soon, but wasnt really pleased with the quality of the one they sent me.

      I know I can make good power, car feels strong, might think about getting the JBS manifold, where do i stop lol

        F4 is a K03s hybrid turbo, not a K04.
        same one as my friend has.
        he does have used the manifold they send from frankenturbo. diddn't see it myself but he was pleased...
        wait a bit till you get the right one, maybe that one is better in quality?

        good manifold and good intercooler with good mapping and you'll be having a rocket my friend

        want to see video's of it in near future!:p

            Great info Instigator! And I'm interested to see if anyone in OZ has a go with the Seat Intercooler. Might be interested

            VWthunder did you get the 3" maf and the TIP as part of your package?

            Cheers.

                Biggest restriction in the exhaust if dump pipe and Cat.

                Custom exhaust or import from UK for full system.

                    Don't know, it recruits a few hp on the stock turbo. The stock manu can be ported as well to increase flow.

                      Do your mates tune a lot of Polo's? A front mount and dump pipe are acknowledged the world over, as being the next step after a Phase/Stage 1 flash. Which is why all recognised tuners have software specifically written for cars with DPs fitted.

                        I bought a nice after market hand made Maf housing, off ebay lol, guy in the states makes them, and yes I got a Black TIP, which is different to the polo one. I had to cut the new TIP up and also cut up my forge one, so it ends up being 3/4 Forge and 1/4 Frankenturbo TIP

                            Exhaust was my 2nd favourite mod after the tune. More torquey and much more noisy.

                                Nice one, thanks mate!

                                Instigator, I don't suppose you've come across ready made TIP to handle the 3" MAF housing that is a direct fit for the Polo in your travels??

                                Thanks!
