Getting Exhaust done (and turbo discussions)

[GoLfMan]

Gt2260v gives about 1,5bar already @2000rpm and spools around 1400rpm in a 1.9TDI. A good turbo for 2,0bar and ~250bhp in a 8 valve setup.

According to Garrett studies ball bearings have more drag after 120krpm so not ideal for vnt. For better spool up why not.

Those are the kind of numbers I want Shadowmaker!

Can you please tell me what other mods will be needed to get 250hp out of the 8v TDI?

apparently these axr engines are pretty tough (i think i read that on the club).

wouldnt it just be a matter of stuff like this:

-turbo back exhaust
-front mount intercooler
-bigger turbo
-pd injectors from kerma ($400usd for one!!!!!)
-bigger intake manifold (like from pd150 aka gt tdi golf)
-bigger airbox with maf from a more powerful car, i think?

dunno exactly how many hp that would yield, but i think perhaps thats some of the stuff you'd be getting involved in, maybe?
