Turbonetics E46 on s2 3b

[henrylee]

Hello!

I have just got a Turbonetics E46 turbo with kkk8 housing that I will put on my s2, changing from kkk 24-7200.. I have full rs2 setup with 7a cams and "380-chip"

Anybody know or using this turbo on simular setup, does it preform ok, spool up and are you happy with it? Dont know if I need to change anything else?

Wonderd if anyone had experience with this turbo..

I'd have thought you'd need a remap at the least to get the best from the turbo?

[henrylee]

yes, I may do.. and maybe some new injectors too.. Dont know what people use, and wondered how the spoolup and performence was

tell more about the turbo,and the setup... its a 2,2liter or??

[henrylee]

2,2 liter 3b yes Dont know what setup it will be yet, since I dont know if it will fit in with what I got.. Had full rs2 setup, but now have this turbonetics.. Motor is out, and is getting H-rods, JE pistons ect 82,5mm and 8,5:1 komp..

Dont know too much about this turbo exept it should be good for 400-420 hp

[caterpillar]

82,5= 2300ccm.. like a 7a...are you sure the turbo are big enought, lot of work for the 400hp

[henrylee]

True, it will become 2,3 Im not sure of anything.. Had both 7a cams with my rs2 turbo, and think that was a little too small maybe. Now Im thinking of having 3b intake cam and 7a exhaust. What do you think? Was unsure about the cams but been told to use them with this turbo..

[djh]

3b intake will be better than 7a intake according to whats been put on the forum. better on fuel as well.

[henrylee]

Yes, thats what I have read.. and I want the car to be driveable since I use it on the road..

My first tread on this forum by the way
