BP V 2.0 turbo kits...ROUND 3 place your order now

SwissCheese · 09-26-2016, 08:00 PM

So, random question for you boosted guys: Do you typically do your own routine maintenance and other things for the car, or do you still take it to the dealer? Just wondering if dealers are hesitant at all to work on boosted cars. I know it probably depends on the dealer, but I was just curious.

Post-turbo I do all work on it other than fab work. Dealer is hit or miss. My dealer had no issues when I was N/A modded. Post turbo they told me not to bother to bring it in as they wouldn't touch it. Went to the other local dealer and not only will they work on it, they will cover it under the warranty as long as it isn't drive train related.

That being said. If you walk this path just understand that you probably set fire to your factory warranty.

I can't think of anything I'd want the dealer jacking around under my car. Last time someone else messed around with something they left one of my wastegate vacuum lines just dangling and it almost had a hole rubbed through it. Nobody touches crap unless I'm right there. It's been said that this is the benefit to a self install and sure enough it is a priceless experience.

Not to mention the jack offs at the dealer likely have no idea how to deal with a turbo car in the first place. That might start to change now that the new platform is TT but there's still a huge difference between factory and aftermarket turbo setups.

It really isn't that loud

I still have 4 V1.5 kits around that I would like to move. I am thinking either tuner kits for $5,000 (no oil cooler) or I can just sell these as the pipe kits (no turbo, BOV, wastegates, oil lines, exa pump..etc) just exhaust and FMIC with pipes, clamps and couplers for around $3,000.

These will still get you 600whp on pump.

No unfortunately I don't have any videos.

Final tune.
Blue: WG boost 8psi
Red: EBC LO boost 10psi
Green: EBC Hi boost 11.5

Any suggestions on some grippy drag radials?

Who tuned and what fuel you running? IF anything then E85, careful w/ that 11.5psi tune, that's pushing quite a bit of tq timing wise.

Not necessarily. If you pull timing you can run more boost and keep the torque down. But if you ramp boost you do need to make sure you don't pull too much timing. Too little timing is just as bad as too much.
