Yo Gee man.Mine keeps cracking at the screamer pipe where the wastegate elbow comes off the manifold.I've had it welded,then braced since but i have a plan for a bigger cross-brace now. the Key is vibration,if you can keep it vibrating all at the same time matey (i.e. my screamer pipe is around 2.5f...

I'd have to add,i'd love to have a go at a 0-162mph dash too or a Top Speed Event,similar to how the SXOC ran it a few times.
Is it RAF Woodbridge that people go to for that?

[Mk2] [Turbo] FINALLY- my GT3071 Mapped, and to 1.9Bar too ;0)

I just wanted to post quickly to mention my car has at last been road tuned to 1.1bar low and 1.9bar high boost levels with my GT3071R. Around town its almost a little too quick,but on the motorway it really shifts! :twisted: I'll have a complete spec-list written up soon in the projects section,sin...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Could i stick 400fwhp through a set of 7.5" all round

My 2p I'm running around 400rwhp (finally!), i've got 205/50/15 at the rear.Although this seems like a foolish choice (and its what happened to be on the car since i cant afford to fit larger rims yet) it doesn't wheelspin as much as you might think,1st gear is a lot but if the road is flat and i ma...

[Mk2] [Turbo] how easy to swap from GT3071 to GT3582?

This is going to sound completely reversed to what i have been building for,but:
My external wastegate is vented through my drivers side vent.
With this in mind,how much work would i be looking at to swap to a GT3582 in the future?
I also run V'Band also.
Any ideas peeps?
