for a t2 to flow 200bhp its well outside its safe limit hence my comment
but a t3 will be a bit happier at 200bhp(some will still be too small)
thats basicaly what Karlos was getting at too i think

I new what egt was and how turbo chargers work lol.I literally got it for peanuts,the complete turbo with elbow and downpipe.I could use it as a trade in as well
