no more boost this year, im pretty confident that it didnt used to do it, although its always popped since changing turbos when i turn it off, so perhaps it has |

It appears to always do it, especially after giving it some beans, but these pics were taken id driven it steadily for a mile or so to let it cool down and it had been idling on the drive to cool

ia was wondering if the new turbo maybe had a smaller exh a/r or trim so it held on to the heat a bit more. On 28th Aug, 2011 Kean said:

No chance that any part of the exhaust is restricting the flow is there ?Could be the silencer has partly collapsed internally.Just a thought,cant think of anything else that has not already been suggested |

Turbos glow, I see what your saying about the restricting, but they glow even if there isn't, as the turbo it's self is the restricting part Best 1/4 mile 13.2 seconds @116 mph
