|  Hybrid Turbo!! Just wondering has anyone spoken to Ross about his new Hybrid turbo? I am looking at getting my Furby done but need to know the figures that his car was producing! I have the reddies for it but need a little more knowledge before I set my heart on it! I guess Ross is the best person to ask but just wondered if anyone knows anything? |

|  The hybrid is on (only this evening though due to being very busy @ work). That was fun being as the turbo I had was for a Golf PD and the compressor side of the turbo needed to be rotated 90 degrees to fit the Fabia  Still its on and all looks factory which is a bonus. Its not been mapped yet but allready there is a very noticeable difference and pulls alot lower. Will be interesting when mapped thats for sure, I think traction could be fun to say the least. A note worthy point uprated brakes are a must, ive faded mine a few times now due to a reduction in engine braking due to the free flowing turbo/exhaust system, unfortunately a by product. Good job ive got my Brembo GT brakes then

| Sadly I didnt get a chance to find out because the turbo had to be fitted straight away. But it certainly felt a massive improvement and looks 100 times better.
