Hi Harry

Thank you for taking the time to read through my build thread.

I found a CR170 turbo of a 2.0L golf on eBay.
I then sent it off to a company called K.R.S Turbos to have it reconditioned and made in to a hybrid which can produce 240bhp on a 1.6.
But at the moment I’m only at 194 at the moment.

There’s not to much involved in fitting a USB.
I fitted it in about an hour. There is a how to thread on fitting to a fuse box

Why the extra feed? Surely you just cut the cigarette lighter cables and wire the USB charger up?

@lain
I’m sure it would of been perfect if it worked but mine didn’t and I tried all the fuse and still couldn’t find the right one so for me it was easier to run a new wires and add dash cam and a shark fin at the same time.

It’s interesting. Did the cigarette lighter work before you changed it?

On the touran dash conversion, I noticed you changed the ducts. What else needs to change?

Cracking build!

Thank you 🙏

As for the the touran dash I had to change the ducts and all the mounting brackets.

Yeah the cigarette lighter did work.

Thanks sands.
It’s taken almost a year to get the exhaust done.
It was worth the wait I think 😁
