Default FAO Rainbird re my Turbo choice.

Mike...just spoke to your mentor and yes this is the turbo non roller bearing but saw 437bhp @ 26psi on greys........that aint the limit of the turbo though apparently this was the safe injector limit before running out of fuel...so a max 450 ish from greys flat out i guess......Obviously on my spec i'd have to run more than 26psi...but Vince reckons it will hold 34psi all day so no worries So with 8 greens i wonder what it what acheive at 34psi......

People had me worried for a minute that i'd just got a T34 .63 capable of 385bhp max

Told you not to worry .

What did he say the limits of the turbo were if enough fuel was supplied?

He has not tried on anything other than greys as far as i could tell.He hadnt tried the 34psi held...saying i had probably got the full type monte version with the biggest wheels possible seeing as i said that 450bhp was the target....but was told that it was only a little less laggier than the T4......which to me is ok with my std comp ratio......i think i made the right choice..plus it didnt need the drop bracket for the alternator and everything just fitted straight on

Steve...yes it will be setup on the rollers to make sure everything is ok.

Phil,
Go and search for it you lazy fucker . It's on one of Jim Green's posts (that he started).

I ordered the intercooler in T4 size inlet / outlets like you asked for, so you will need the drop bracket hoses .
