What car is it.
Majority of hybrids die because guys slap a huge comp wheel on a small turbine.

Speak to Frans at VagSpecCentre, he tried the same on his BiTDi Amarok but went back to stock turbo due to the tuning issues experienced

why modify a amarok. It's not a racing type vehicle. You want reliability then leave it alone and buy something else as a toy.
there is a lot of research into the twin turbo setup from VW to make that work. Now you want to fiddle basically with the ratio they deliver at. I wouldn't if it was mine. if you want a faster amarok buy a V6.

I must say I love your responses and helpfulness on this forum. I am just sad that you all the way in Gauteng and can't actually make use of your services.
