well i have fitted it today and whow what a diffrance... boost comes in alot quiker and stronger..

it pulls like a trooper through all gears....

drove home on the motorway from craigs garage to see if was set right to hold 1 bar in 3rd , 4th etc..all ok..

. so when come to a clear run on the motorway.. i put my foot down to see the diffance.. and she pulled too 150mph no problem and was still going but thought i'ld better stop...

just need to fit the new turbo elbow and down pipe now to see the change again if any....

the real test will come tomo on the race way.. as im hopin to bet my best time of 12.6...

what you got a standard downpipe at the mo? If you got a 12.6 at 0.8bar you were doing well mate!

mind they do seem to get good times matey. The low ratio box helps. 12.6 is a crackin time though. reckon i should be in low 12s.
