the vf24 is a good turbo but just dosent satisfy me enough.
Post us some results i would love to know what you will make with that turbo, i will be happy with 350-370 bhp, i know that i wont get that wiv VF24 and 440s, im looking for a turbo that can get me there. Im in Leicester and we have plenty on V power here 6 station within 7 miles lol. Good luck with your remap bud

Its not a good idea to max out the injectors, speak to your mapper see what he would suggest, always good to leave some room on injectors you dont want to be running the injetors at 100%

yeah,ill have a chat with him about that,im running 319/281 on the vf24(97ron),so maybe v power with this turbo(vf48) will be better?
its something i dont know much about,obviously if i can get 340 on 97 id much prefer to map it with that,but if it only reaches 330 on 97 then id be enoyed i didnt map it for v power.im hoping for 320lbft also.

Be carefull with the torque, that will **** your box, had my type r up to 330 0n v power with a vf34, now i run it at 303 on 97 and 285 odd on 95 and to be fair there is not that much difference especially since the simtec as it runs alot smoother now.

But i do feel more at ease when booting it as i know i'm being as gearbox friendly as possible while still having a reasonably quick car, and as i'm not draging or tracking it i don't see the need to go mental.

But having said that i'm building a closed deck 2.1 over the winter

there are many people running loads more torque than that on the dccd 752 box.
i am a very carefull and car will only get put through its paces once a week.
people have broke these boxes at less than 300 and some have been running 350+lb ft for ages with no probs,its completely pot luck.
maybe ill stick with the 97ron as i think this turbo will still pull 330+bhp and 310-330lbft on 97 ron.

I don't think it's so much pot luck as driving style and what sort of life it's had previously.

I drive hard but go easy on my gearbox, no launches and i don't rag the gears and no hard on off throttle, i also change the gearbox and diff oil around 10k but i don't drive it much so its not that often.

Good luck on the power and i hope the gearbox holds up for you as it's by far the best ratios iv'e had in a scooby and i love em can't beat a type r for sheer driving pleasure
