Lol **** yeh bro, dyno guys reckon its robbing a good 60rwhp. Its got no top end power. The wastegate isnt opening as it cant push anymore then 6psi out of the exhaust!!!

 

[cracker]

meh, for 6psi its right on the money really.
bigger exhuast more boost and more power yes

Spent the day pulling turbo off car. Just finished rebuilding it tonight and will bolt it all back on tomorrow and see how it goes. Hopefully no more smoke otherwise im gonna have to save for gt3540

 

[VL_5SPEED]

Turbo on and minimal smoke. Mainly when coming to a stop or going down a hill... could be from oil still in cooler pipes i dunno. Dyno boys tell me its not going to last long as the turbos ****ed so ill see how it goes in the meen time im saving for ecu, injectors and gt3540

Finally got the car back yesterday after doing the head gasket.. Got a nice think steel gasket on it now and its running sweet. real happy with how it goes next to do is the exhaust. Me and my mate got some pics today. Still need to get a new bumper and chrome rear quarter window trim for passenger side.

what a pain man
when my car was picked up to go to exhaust shop the towie was awesome. putting extra ramps on so my cooler would not get ripped off on his tray of the sheer angle
good mate of my stepdad he is... he takes that extra care with ppls cars he was saying
man the ramps were like 5-6 meters of the tray then he drove like halfway up and then got out and winched it up watching to c if my cooler would clear it.
