There actually a f*ckn great turbo, i got one on my car, haven't had 1 problem with it yet, been on for about 4 months.. Just because they are cheap doesnt mean they are sh*t, takes my hard abuse anyway so it must be good! Each to their own..

I saw that. Manafold designers need to read up about the simplest of simple things, fluid dynamics, not THAT hard.

Hey Dan hows it going?
Yeah the cars at a bit of a standstill at the moment.. Im lowering the comp on the engine, the heads off it and I have to modify my zorst manifold to suit my 50mm wastegate coz the 38mm was too small.
The compression is 9.7:1 and I need to get it down to around 8.5:1, not bad power I got out of it though, on 12 psi it was 200rwkw BUT 975nm of torque lol!
Do you have any ideas of what I can do to lower my compression or who has a good reputation for head work? Its got ef pistons. To get the comp down to what I want I figured out that I'd need a 1.6mm gasket plus take out 10cc out of each combustion chamber and that should do it. Im not rushing it, just see what happens I spose.
How are your beasts going anyway?

Catchya'l later!
