Im gunna have to disagree there.......as i said on my car the carcks in the housing resulted in the turbo peaking to 10 psi and holding 6 psi with the screw in the bleed valve completely removed, and it was very laggy. Another exhaust housing fitted and its completely different.

I have got some pictures i'll hook them out.

Chris - i wouldn't be surprised if your turbo is knackered mate. Don't overlook the fact you were driving around on that old engine with cracked bores.....remember the state the oil was in? Remember me saying to you when i was wiring the car i'll be surprised if the turbo is ok.............?

Thats what i think anyway!
