[Mk2] [Turbo] Diameter of the injector seat in the head?

Hi

Trying to order some parts and am away from home

Basically I just need the internal diameter of the seat the injector fits into in the head on a rev3 head? Need orings for my injector cups and cannot remember the size of it.

Cheers

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Which wideband afr gauge?

I use an innovate MTX-L

I use it primarily for the serial output to my adaptronic e1280s

Nice wee video here from the guy who built it (The ecu)

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Starter motor cabling query

cut the plug off and replace with a normal sized spade connector and it'll fit. Or transfer over the assembly from the old motor.

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Shim Bank - Mark 2 Rev 3

Just FYI, the shims from some old Peugeot engines fit perfectly. I'm using them on mine.

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Where to buy a turbo (GT3076)

Thought about a precision turbo ?

had one before my Borg Warner S366, and had a PT6266 before that, which was twice the turbo my GT35 was.

[Mk2] [Turbo] rev 3 stock oil cooler delete and aftermarket kit, does one exist?

Is there a rev 3 remote oil cooler kit out of the box anywhere?

I want to remove the stock rev 3 cooler as it fouls on my new manifold, and I don't want to modify the manifold!

I'm only looking a kit as I want to get it all sorted asap.
