Hybrid testing time....
So my turbo guy sent me a hybrid to test. Objective was to see what power is possible with 'decent' compressor wheel and turbine in the stock 2260vk...not the usual AMG turbine.

Removed the S200, fitted a gutted dpf unit, stock exhaust - PCV behind the headlight haha



Results:

426hp / 870nm



Looking at the log I had a lot of torq correction based on egt's due to the hot weather so on a colder day I would expect better power

Nice daily unit with great response.

Off course the pcv would go into the turbo intake pipe if this turbo was staying in my car. But it was a test to see what can be done and give a clear view of what is required for a real 430hp with nice low down power.

WOWWWW :-0 :-0 :-0 Amazing results, bravo!!!! Mr Singh you are the proverbial MAN. :)

How does the power delivery compare to the stock turbo, particularly in the lower rev ranges, is there any detrimental impact on the lower rpm range with the bigger turbo components?

I think we need to do this to an A5 3.0 tdi... any volunteers? :) I would do it but I only just recently did my turboback custom exhaust and doing an RS5 front conversion, picked a mixture of performance and stance for my first fajor mods, so I need to give it some time to really enjoy these mods and save the hybrid turbo as a major milestone for the future... :)

Spool almost like stock - in town i would say its better than my S200v for sure. Basically a good reponding all round unit for a daily that just happens to make make 430hp

thats not bad at all!

So this turbo is a standard replacement and doesnt require any tweaking of oil feeds and such?

how much does something like this cost?

what else is being used to get these kind of figures? Im assuming theres a wagner intercooler in there.

Great results bobby.
Yes its a hybrid 2260vk which sits in the home position so oil line and down pipe all line up. My MAF is larger and I would recommend to use a larger so ideally a custom turbo intake pipe is required. Not a big deal to make up to be honest. I had a mixture of TIP's so I just put something together for the test.

Turbo would be approx ÂŁ1,400 (exchange) - price is not 100% confirmed yet.
Supporting mods would be fuel pump, wagner, sensors, labour etc

Nice, so with a 'proper' downpipe, not a gutted DPF, cooler weather and straight through exhaust you could be nudging 440-450bhp!?

What was the boost pressure?
I wouldnt like to say what it can make with a 3" delete pipe as I haven't tested that. EMP and exhaust back pressure suggests not.

Id be interrested in doing something like this is the opportunity arised where these new hybrids became available for me to buy, along with the supporting mods.
