What have you done with the breather? Just vented it under the car or something? |

Cheers. 1293, avonbar ph2, gt17, Matty mani, nice big head, dished out pistons, cam belt kit, megajolt, pretty standard crank, some home worked innocenti rods, RTS clutch, SC st box, Med drop gears, x pin diff etc. I haven't worked out the exact compression ratio but it should be capable of close to 20psi should I fancy it. |

Pretty sure thats a T25 If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of. |

It's not stamped anywhere on it. The inlet side is bolt on. The exhaust flange is circular. Edited by jonny f on 18th Dec, 2014. |

I'm going to say it but are the bolts on your mains strap 3 dash? I run a supercharger and I don't care the TB is on the wrong side.

Thank you Robert! Not the turbo I was after really. I've sourced a gt17 just need to wait for the seller to come over to england.

They are 3 dash. Lowest grade of bolt to still be considered high tensile.

Yeh, Your originals are 6 dash which is more like a 10.9 in metric measurement. 3 dash is closer to an 8.8. Id say you want them to be as good as or better then the originals! |

It won't be that loud don't find mine that loud with no sound insulation just carpet, and I presume you wont be having a radio, that you will need to listen to? Car looks really good as well. |

Thanks guys, i better strip it down again then! One question though, why would they supply a CMS with them if they aren't up to the job? On 19th Jan, 2015 Rammie2000 said:
