TD05 turbo upgrade

[hilli182]

I guess this may have been covered somewhere before so apologies if it has

 

If I was to fit td05 turbo to by uk 2000 turbo model, what else would have to be changed in order for it to be a successful mod/upgrade?

 

Its not something I'm not looking to do it at the minute but just wondered for future reference

 

Thanks in advance

doing this at the moment, for worth while, upgrade to sti yellow injectors, fuel pump, DV, and STI newage top mount, also you will desperately need a remap, and will happily see around 320+

 

the TD05 itself will most likely need adjusting as they are top mount and ours are front mount :)

[hilli182]

so a decent amount of work then i see

 

what bhp would a decat, induction kit and remap see?

[stants]

I take it your on a td04 at the mo ? Around 260-270 :-)

[hilli182]

I am assuming so yes. It's standard set up at the minute apart from back box and induction kit. Hoping to sort decat down pipe soon ☺

[stants]

Did you manage to get the money back on the newage one ?

[hilli182]

No the guy just plain blanked me when I asked about it. I think it is a classic but a wrx one. I managed to get the sensor into it but then fitted it and the flange to join to the mid pipe is a different angle lol. The shape and length etc is the right shape tho

I've seen another the is 100% UK version so will see how much it goes for. Going on holiday in few days so can't afford big spending at the minute

Theres a jap breakers in batley last time i went they had everything from bongos to gto's in.

It used to be massive so if your ever over that way may be worth a poke around

[hilli182]

That's not too far from me just along m62. You know the name of it?

[stants]

No haha i can get there but thats about it. If you google something like jap breakers in batley should come up. It's behind a ralway line. Up a cobbled street anfd you have to go under the line to get to it i'll see if i can dig it out. I spent about an hour just wandering round last time. I was after mk1 mx5 bits. Bit of a dig through was worth it as it only cost 3quid for the bita

[hilli182]

I used to have a mk1 my loved it ☺

OK cool. Not often you get a breakers that let you wonder around these days thanks for that

That look like the place?

[stants]

Looks like they have had a clear out as it used to stretch further right.

You can't take tools in so you wander round find what you want then they come annd remove it for you. May have changed since. Motorhog seem to be buying up all the smaller yards.

Yeah mate i loved it it's only due to the baby that i changed to the foz

[hilli182]

Same reason I sold mine. Sold it to a retired guy next door to parents so every time I go round it's there on the drive. Want it back but hey got a better car now ☺

[stants]

Yep thats the one. Although looking at the revues i wouldn't order online haha

[stants]

Damn children !

I was gonna sell mine to my dad as he loved driving it that way i could have still taken it out for a blast now and then. The old dear put a stop to that plan though :-(

[hilli182]

I keep saying I'm going to get one as a second car at some point. We can all hope can't we ha

[Pommy]

Also had an mx5 before this car, needed something bigger, constantly trying to convince myself to get another one as a second car.

 

I might give that place a look at some point as its not too far from me, although the reviews aren't inspiring confidence within me. Maybe it has changed since you have been Stanton

Might as well do the the up pipe at same time for sake of 3 bolts

My old one was 330ish with td05

[hilli182]

What's the gains from changing the up pipe too?

[quit]

Better flow / bigger

[Ash007ks]

m old bug had stainless headers, upipe and turbo back 2.5 inch and k&N cone and made 276 and 260 which is very rare for a td04, however i would factor in the possibility of a clutch with a remap as mine shat it self and liked to slip with 18 psi :s

 

TD05 route is good but tbh only reason im doing it is ive got most of the bits anyway and a closed deck block, and having to get engine bored due to previous owner, my bug was more than liverly enough at 276 and was great on fuel and reliable, much passed the 330-350 and your reliability comes down, so i would say if you use it ever day go td04 route :)

[hilli182]

Fair enough thanks for the advice

I forgot to mention it's already got uprated exedy clutch too :-)

Just won a second decat pipe which actually will fit rather than the last one I bought lol

the more gas you can get to you turbo the faster it will spool the lower down the rev range you will get boost a good turbo that there is a lot about at present is the vf 35  should make 320ish with supporting mods as this is off the new age sti

[quit]

I just picked up a vf35 for a very good price , it's a good turbo in my eyes

Td05 is cheaper tho
