does any one know what type of actuator i have a on this cossie turbo

 

Collins actuator i think

 

I agree matey

 

That looks good mate, never seen an 8v dohc turbo'd before, did you build it yourself? whats the spec?

Greg.

 

8v?? i thought those twin cams were 16v?

thats definatly a collins actuator i have one here, and i found the boost fluctuates and you cant get it set properly,bin it and get a -31

 

boost has been rock solid at 18psi, but boosts slighlty higher when in top gear for some strange reason

 

Most cars do boost higher in top gear any way mate...i seen this car at a passion ford meet in glasgow a year or so back...

 

Nope twin cam 8v bud.

 

was it hard to build the engine?whats the spec?

 

no not really hard to build just time
