    Default C20LET chipsets

    Right I've currently purchased a let and I haven't got a clue when it comes to turbo engines.

    At the moment at a guess it's standard with Xe inlet cam (no proof of this thou only what I've been told, any easy way of checking it?)

    I will be looking at upping the power in the near future and wandered if beardy evo5 chip is any good? And also what actuator would I need? And do I need an adjustable FPR or upgraded injectors?

    If anyone has a site with the phase upgrades and what need buying?

    Thanks in advance joe

    Judging by what Ive read.

    Its an evo5 chipset

    4.5bar fuel reg (FOOOKING high)

    standard injectors

    And unsure on actuator.

    IIRC LeeH tried some Saab reds, but didnt like them. Pm him, he knows let engines in and out.

    All LET chipsets are mapped using standard injectors hence why you up the fuel pressure. Don't use Saab reds they flow too much.

    Well I'm just going to gather information at the moment and when I've got some spare cash upgrade the power.

    My my 1st purchase will be an f28 thou as I've been told the f20 won't handle much over standard power

    The engine seems fine to me but I'm going to get someone to have a good look over it. It's got a frontera fmic and 2" solid boost pipes with silicon hoses on the bends. No chav valve on it thou .

    The 1st upgrade is going to be an F28. Then all start purchasing chips and what's needed to run them.

    If it doesn't have a chav value makes sure the factory one is still operational on the in let side of the turbo in order for it not to suffer with turbo stall, it might sound better but a kkk turbo won't like it for long
