Nice 1 mate, this one has an internal gate and I bought this turbo off a PF member for a great price

The fella who can source these turbos is PF member Chip, give him a shout I'm sure he can sort you out

I gonna take it real easy until I source a big tooth gear kit or should I say find the funds to get a big tooth gear kit

I was watching a quaife big tooth box on ebay this week it sold last night for £1150, cheap and was tempted to whack in a bid but it was almost the same money as this
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/COSWORTH-4X4-R...3A1%7C294%3A50

I am gonna get one of these kits soon, if it does what it says on the tin, happy days

2wd m8, it is laggy but to be fair it does need a live map and the cams dialing in so will be better but does start to make + boost at 3500 and full boost by 4500 then its just hold the fook on, i have never had a yb rev so fast and high as this its just so mad to drive, everyone thats been in it just cant stop grinning its such a laugh
