full engine rebuild, lots of supporting mods and £500 for a 700bhp turbo is waaaaaay too cheap.

 

leave well alone. What is it your trying to achieve?

Thought it was cheap just thought I would ask.Was thinking of buying a few parts to go towards a future rebuild I would like 500 bhp at the wheel

Posted

500bhp at the wheels is around 600bhp at the fly, that is some mega power and gonna be a serious build, £20k by the time all support mods are in place at a guess. Bear in mind will be a full overhaul of engine, fuel system, gearbox, clutch, turbo, ecu etc etc.

 

why so much? whats the most powerfull scoob you have driven?

Just wanted something different but for 20 g I think I give it a miss unless I win Euro

Posted

haha yeah, welcome to the world of tuning. Did you have a budget in mind?

Posted

Around 4000 g maybe 7 at a stretch couple more years of saveing thou lol

Im assuming yoru still running the standard 2.5 engine?

 

First port of call is rebuild with proper pistons, rods and such if your wanting to boost performance. as long as yours is ok £4k should be enough to get it done properly.

 

You could try decat, panel filter and map, but is a risk on the standard 2.5

Yea I got 2.5 remaped running with cossie pistons normal rods sc360 turbo 3 port solinoid, fmic changed pannel filter 300 at wheels 358 at fly at moment

Posted

ah right, hats a tad different then. Rods will limit you to around 400, but could put a larger turbo on it and push it up towards 400.

 

Sc42 will be about right and will spool well on a 2.5. injectors may need an upgrade.

Ty I will have to look around for a good one and maybe injectors and another remap mo money

Posted

I'd recommend the brakes to be upgraded too at some point Even the good old Brembo's die off on a spirited drive :(

£500 for a 700bhp turbo :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

 

400bhp and maybe 450 lb torque will make a rapid car, if you do want 500 at the wheels, you will be spending £18k +

 

try the sc42 with other supporting mods and remap, see if that puts a smile on your face.

 

one other thing to think about is advanced driving, learn how to use what you have got to it's full potential
