The power figures quoted are conservative, not exaggerated like others may quote. The GTB1756V is better in every way than other hybrids offered on the market at the moment. The spool on the GTB1749V will be similar to the standard turbocharger and more than adequate with the larger turbo for town use
Intercooler
When installing this kit we advise upgrading the Intercooler and Pipework. We have different kits listed here - https://www.darksidedevelopments.co.uk/intercoolers-and-pipes/
If you plan on keeping the stock pipework you may need to modify the hose connecting onto the turbo
Clutch
An upgraded clutch is advised but we have done quite a few of these conversions and 50% of the time the stock clutch holds, even with an aggressive tune!
As long as your Clutch and Flywheel are in good condition it should be okay
Injectors
The 1.9 TDI PD130 & PD150 models will max out at around 230bhp on the Stock Injectors
PD100, PD105 & PD115 engines will require PD150 Injectors to get past 170bhp - https://www.darksidedevelopments.co.uk/products/1-9-8v-tdi-pd150-arl-injector-set-038-130-073-al.html
90 & 110 VE Engines will also require Race Injector Nozzles with this turbo kit - https://www.darksidedevelopments.co.uk/products/hflo-x-race-nozzles-for-1-9-2-5-ve-engines.html
Head Bolts
For those with a PD100, PD105, PD115 or PD130 we strongly advise fitting the PD150 Head Bolts. This will prevent head lift which can lead to loss of coolant.
