Default Turbo, Gas or thottle bodies
Hey BOYS!

Its me again.

Just got that 2.0 8V in my new golf and she is running like a dream.

Now I want to know the next step.

Which one would be the best for my golf

*Small turbo maybe T3 series!
*50hp to 100hp shot of gas!
*48mm to 50mm thottles!

Thank you
CHAPS

um.. obviously a T3 turbo... LoL...

increasing your throttle body to a 2mm upgrade isnt gonna do much of any thing...

Nitrous is cheap.. but expensive to refill over time... and can really blow your engine

A cheap T3 turbo with a good intercooler and exhuast will easily add 150 hp to your car.. and improve gas mileage

i had a t3 on a 1.6 8v and it gave me a reliable 200bhp

had forged pistons, sp rods etc... though


but if you got the money, all 3 sounds good!

You should roll a 1L8 20VT turbo
With a few mods, you can have 250/280 hp
