It will give the turbo a easier time and last longer than a T3 running the same boost, and have more potential for later mods.
I run a T3-34.48, a T3 compressor housing machined out to take a T34 inducer, with std .48 turbine, on a RST rear section, my boost starts at 1400rpm, full boost by 2500rpm, but I have modded the inlet ports around the ends where the valve closes.
The very first thing you want to do is to get a fuelling check done as well as the fan and pump rewire for peace of mind, and engine life.
They can be totally reliable do good mpg and give good service if looked after, they are amazing for the age of the car.

Thanks for that. I have a snap-on gas analyser at home and I have set the C0 at idle to 2.5% which is in the middle of MSDs intructions of 2-3%. I believe, according to the paperwork i got, its set to run 18psi and I have just fitted a new Weber 3.5bar fuel regulator from MSD too, and was told it was fit and forget. And I have a mate whos a auto sparky, whos making me the fan and pump loom in a couple of weeks.
I will be taking it down to MSD for a full checkover in a month or two, so hopefully it will be spot on. Cheers for all the advice
