stage 3 turbo cinq project started today!!!

I have today started my plans to turn my turbo cinquecento into what i class a stage three setup! ive started with my turbo, anyone who has read my future spec list will have seen my plans for a hybrid turbo conversion which will mean i can maintain the same torque characturistics and drivability but with more power and torque! the turbo is being picked up by Midland turbo in the morning and i should recieve it back next week once the right hybrid choice has been made,,,,,its looks like my T15 will be mated to either a GT17/GT18 or the T2!

see my gallery for pics and details!!

Too right I stripped the splines on 2 drive shafts (always the nearside short one) and ruined a set of Toyo T1-R's in 3K miles on my old turbo

It is LSD time Jason

I agree, i now it would transform the car and make it a much faster road car, if third gear causes big traction problem out of some corners now then i dread to think what another 20lb/sf of torque might be like,,,ill be getting some money hopefully soon but then ive got to track a LSD down!! we'll see haha

Get in touch with Nigel who did all the organising with Quaife I think he may have a spare, also there is a rumour that Quaife may be stocking/making them to order now but at a price. You may also have to change to the 1.4 6speed box unless you have a bolted crown wheel

thanks mate, the 6 speed is something i thought about before for better accelertaion but i think lower gearing may be the last thing i need haha, isnt it a pain to fit?? linkages etc??
last time i spoke to brooky he had one spair actually so ill give him a bell.
