Can we not get back to the Turbo stuff that was really interesting, We all know where this will end up if we let it change direction. :smiley: :wink:

I have no animosity towards Forge at all. They have a different philosophy regarding modifying cars than we do is all. We approach it from an OEM perspective which seems to create some questions as to why we don't follow suit with the bulk of the aftermarket. Sometimes people at other companies get upset with the way I explain things to them which is fine as its not my job to help them understand there could have been better design choices but to help the enthusiasts understand why we choose what we do and why we didn't choose the way other people do it.

Hi again Keith,
What does the APR 'cooler flow in terms of g/s?
The THS one had some data logging done on it by DomT off here and it manages to flow over 480g/s. Using the rough yardstick of dividing by 0.8 to get the handling capabiltity it roughly equates to 600bhp. :smiley:

TC, are you tempted then by the TSI conversion and a MKVI? :pomppomp:
Or the MKV conversion? :drinking:
