Still up on blocks because I've got finishing touches to make on the downpipe, waiting for something to turn up.
Making about 10 psi of boost, ther's no load though and still on the old Activ Map ver 2.0
What are you waiting for? Silencer?

The oil is probably still pouring out of the turbo, but with the pipework fitted I cant see it, so it's fine.

Could be a good upgrade for the Volvo manifold. Have you looked at the housing design?
The actuators vertical. Its not "race car" spec, but as a standard unit its got some legs for the 2.5 T4.
Compressor map looks impressive for 250bhp @ 4200rpm @ 2.2bar.
Have you been in contact with the Seller? or Interested?

Interested - but skint.
Seller might also be skint, might be worth a silly offer.
Or would have been if the listing hadn't just ended early.
Chinesium turbo and custom manifold it is then.
Lets just see how this one goes first - I think the clutch might give way first.
Tempted to buy a spare motor and build up a new motor with custom manifolds and the six speed box I've been planning - rotated on a adaptor plate.Last edited by regcheeseman; 23 December 2017, 01:50 AM.
