Turbo,family car,reliability....

[Rocco]

Hello guys,gays and lesbians

if you were to have a family car,a car to use for everydays,like shopping,transport childs,go to work....

then,what kind of Hp limit or kind of turbo could be something reliable to dont stay every weeks doing,fixing and upgrading things and keep the car on the road as ANY normal car.

i mean, if we are boosting the car to 2.5Bar i am sure we will be doing things many days ,the same as hose clamps revisions or changing coils,sparks plugs,oils....

so what´s your point about something like this? would be better a high displacement engine like a 2.5 with less boost and a very good cylinder head ported job with bigger valves and keep it boosting 1.7 Bar? better than using a 2.2 without head job and 2.2Bar


i would like to do this in a future,and i am not sure if the right way is to push a car to 500Hp and always more than 2Bar in the intake system


personally i know a guy who is using his RS2 with a GT3071 0.82AR...with a pretty standard car and engine bay,,,pushing it to 1.8Bar in his 2.2 block and stock head...and this car amazed me


i think that someone is now thinking "stupid,forget a car like this and buy a RS4 B5"

Buy a b5 s4 and change to rs4 spec (engine). Or rs6

[K7ERG]

Would you consider a turbodiesel?

I think that a stock car (S2 Avant, UrS4) with just a remap would be way more than enough.

Audi A6 C6 3.0 TDI.
300hp with chip. Reliable autobox, etc.

2.2T or 2.7T is not a "worry free family car for every day". Everything else but that.

That would do the job nicely! And good torque.

Yup and they are like 10 000 EUR now, so pretty cheap for the amount of car and gadgets you get.

So ,any stock of our Audis can be named " reliable" for everydays?

First rule of all,I don't want more diesel cars.got enough at work

Kms done are not a problem,because I do very few going to work,shopping or carrying my girlfriend.

I know ,at least my coupe and others goes pretty well while we were on stock turbo hehe.

I do like to maintenance my cars ,this is not a problem ,the thing is to have a car "comfortable" with a turbo engine and don't run risks abou OMG,engine or hoses failures and I'm left on the road


To do crazy things I'll have my coupe

Yes, then get a diesel.

[Rocco]

Yes, then get a diesel.

My coupe has never left me on the road.had coil or hose problem ..

Look Richards car...his wife loves it and it's used everydays for everything

It's reliable,also everything is stock,maybe the rubber hoses too!

And Richard isn't the best turbo friend...he punishes it km yes and km too


I remember one of his quotes " Thomas,use the k26/27 .look my car...it hasn't limits "

Sorry to disappoint you, but Richard is currently driving an RS4.

burrrrnnnn

[Rocco]

He told me that maybe one day he will buy one yes but not soon like this !

I hope he still keeps the rs2....

If not at least he has a kingfisher at the garden

[prj]

If not at least he has a kingfisher at the garden

Not anymore.

[Rocco]

Not anymore.

Sold then? He had plans of put on it 600 hp...he had the short intake fitted and the turbo bought! I was touching it

I'm sure he will back

if you want a fast, comfortable reliable car with less to worry about get a V8 S4
