2260vk rebuild advise or Hybrid?

Hi all

Just looking for advise on my next step of tune.

Running a second A5 2260vk and was going to freshen it up with a bearing and seal mellett rebuild. Just was thinking of stepping up to a 2565 with gen 2 compressor? I know I'd have to get my housings profiled but it would be a good time to do it.

Turbo OK at the moment but not sure on the history. Not smoky and holds boost well.

Can't afford a Darkside 2872 which would be the icing on the cake.

What are the pros and cons. Looking for a nice 320-330hp once i covert to bkd ecu 120% injectors (current bmn Siemens)

What are the flaws with 2260vk hybrids, wheel matching and extended tips etc? Is there a ideal ratio between size or turbine and compressor?

Any one had good results?

Maybe look up Adam Davidson at Pioneering Performance. He may have some options for you.

Nice one��

Never heard off them work looks impressive!

Like the idea of 2369 option.

Great they do custom casting of manifolds. If I knew they did this before going down the Tubular route.

Happy with my manifold but a headache to fit my 2260vk!

I'll send them a message.

Much appreciated

Contact Bobby Singh, he has good working turbos for 400+hp at good prices.

Bkd with gtb2260vk and f120 makes without problems 320+hp at 2.5bar

gtb2365

tw: 51/47mm
cw: 50/65 ett 69mm 6+6 not gtx crap.

3e gear full boost 2.7 bar around 2800 rpm
emp 1:1 with 2.5 bar at 4300 rpm
350 + hp with good spool up

Thanks for that?

Is the tw off a c30 merc?

I thought these were 49/51?

69! Not too big?

I have an audi exhaust housing. I've heard a vklr can be fitted after machining.

How different are vklr to vk regarding spool?

Was thinking of 46/51 BMW tw with a 6+6 47/64/66 cw?

I do want to break 350 hp eventually but want something I can run 2.3 to 2.5 bar to start with.

Bmw tw is 4650
I ran 2.7 2.8 bar boost on 2263 with 9 blade high flow turbine wheel 46/50mm
vklr 2565 was not better than the jb 2565vk, no difference in spool for me at least, and when i look at dyno charts i dont see the advantage in spool people
