If you want to make full use of a GT30 then you need to consider a full engine rebuild and change of spec as I'm affraid what you have now would make the GT30 an expensive option that would give less performance than a 0.48T34 on your current engine.
Hi Karl, cheers for the advice.
Over here in New Zealand we don't have anyone at all that has either the experience or the software to do live mapping on the Cosworth engine.
I can put it on the Dynapack and have it dynoed, all the tuners can do is adjust fuel pressure, boost and tweak the C0 screw though
Remembering there's less than 50 Ford RS vehicles in New Zealand
Japanese cars are all the rage over here and most young people don't even know what a Sierra is when I pull up at the lights.
Is there possibly another type of Garrett GT turbo that would be better suited to my engine specs or is a T34 the only way to go for what mods I have?
