Sorry to correct, but uk helix 02a is 4 puck clutch and 02m is a 5 puck I know because I have/had both. Also I have garrett GT3582r with 0.82AR and can say it is a really good turbo currently run up to 25psi at the minute, loving the results.

Torque x revs devided by 5252.

I think this thread may have taken a wrong turn, I think it is unfair for anyone to devalue anyone else's advice. I have noticed some people research the subject then try and advise when really one should only advise on personal experiences.
-
I must agree on the injector front could not pay me to run Bosch 440's. if your going to run UM I would run Siemens 630cc
-
I had lots of good fun for years without LSD and keep it under on/under 400bhp and gearbox should be fine. Although clutch is needed with much over 300bhp.
-
Could you post a couple of stickers too as don't have any and would look good on the stand. -
It can be done for £1000 as him potter showed us all but the reality is if you are planning on keeping the car for a long time about £3000 should secure you some quality components eg. Fueling kit (injectors,maf,chip) £750 Garrett GT3582r £1000 Tail wastegate £200 Large universal intercooler £100 Recirculating bov £100 Down pipe stainless parts £150 Oil lines and water £50 Intercooler piping and clamps £200 Head spacer with MLS gasket £100 Standard head bolts£20 Fuel pump £125 eBay ATP style manifold £100 Maybe Sri £250 I just saved up and bought each bit when I had the spare c
-
Agreed the verdistein setanta's are a good tyre.
-
I would buy the full kit the standard pressure plate will not have the clamping force required to run the 4 puck friction plate, the reason they sell them seperate is for second time round when your looking to replace your looking to renew like for like.
-
I agree dog poo in the wet, best all round tyre I have found is good year eagle gsd3.
-
I have ran a Walbro 255 with 495bhp and Bosch 044's are good for about 800bhp that is my overkill thinking.
-
I will take one for Saturday please se pm for address.
-
Yes it is fine slightly heavier and need a couple more revs for smoother engagement but that's just life if you want 400bhp lol.
-
Valid point on the old search rather than post, but surely it's the daily posts that keep the forum alive.
-
^^^ agreed on the software side of life, although a Walbro 255 in tank pump would properly be best for your and a 044 would be very noisy and slight overkill.
-
Well put D@aVeR6, I think the economic down turn means no one has the spare cash no more and you can just as easily buy a 2002 mk4 gt gti for the same money as a clean vr6.
-
haha thats mental, crazy yanks.
-
Budget would help us steer you in the right direction, for example I had a limited budget but decided to get proper garrett gt3582r and tail 38mm waste gate as intercooler, bov, pipework could be upgraded at a later date but it would be a massive expense to buy a turbo twice or ruen a motor because of a crapy seized waste gate.Also arp hardware is not needed in 400bhp and less applications, some disagree but that's my experience .

Mardigrassmotorsport. They are a helix dealer.
-
Helix 4 paddle clutch held 500bhp nicely but the gearbox did not last long at that very good clutch.
-
Yeah, that looks good, it gives members an idea of which modifications are producing the best results.
-
Exited to see the power figures with maybe a short list of modifications.
-
Is this right CoilPack - HELP PLEASE!!

Ask not what can your club do for you, but what can you do for your club. Like VIVW28 said this aint a paid service so chill your beans. -
Cool thanks for all your help, think I'm going to enjoy this summer how it is and crack on over winter.
