Pure800 install

[OlivMk5]

Hey everyone, so going to be installing a pure800 soon since my oem one croaked.

Haven't ever installed a turbo, as all my past experience is American v8’s, but wanting to know if theres any specifics/pointers to look out for.

Watching some install videos, it doesnt seem too difficult, just some tight spaces. But what all else is going to be required other than the simple turbo swap.
Couldnt find any threads on the install, but if they exist, a link would be fine. Thanks im advance.

Nothing special there. It's a lot of removing bolts and putting them back. There is a TON of 'refresh when removed' bolts there, so order there. Also make sure you use a new exhaust gasket.

Very simple straight forward work. Probably the easiest turbo install I’ve done.

Kies Motorsports have great video walkthroughs on YouTube as well.

Hey Zrk if you were to go hybrid would you go Pure 800 or DAW?? From my understanding DAW is probably the best bet now in that range?

I'd go DAW if I were doing a hybrid right now.

I'd go DAW if I were doing a hybrid right now.

Any particular reason why you would go with DAW over Pure?

They don't blow up as much. Back in 2020 Pure changed suppliers for the CHRA and it's been garbage since.

The installation process is straightforward. It involves a direct replacement of the stock turbo without any need for modifications.
