Stu totally mapped out all the surge from my MD240... In my opinion the turbo was a poo design though. Other people have apparently had alot of success with them though.
How was Daz's dads MD240R Stu, surgetastic or was it ok?

It wasnt as bad as yours if that helps, and since the head spec wasnt as good as yours it should have been worse really mate
Ran 1bar from 2200rpm up to 4200rpm then 35psi peak at 4300rpm and 32held to the 7500 limiter...
Maybe they have revised the compressor or turbine mate
