That's right Jim, the 751578-2 GT2056 doesn't have a ball bearing...
Keep the guessers guessing!

Hi guys
For those that have been featured (Jim, Craig, Colin) please-mail your address to me at jeff.ruggles@futurenet.co.uk and I'll post you some mags when they come back from the printers (we seem to get them last!)

I think I already have Craig's address but not the other two.

Cheers

Jeff

Just read the feature, and very impressed Jim. Hope to see the car soon in full anger, at the usual speed events, especially with the latest power figures. TOP MARKS *Shooting*

According to the article it has a Tial external wastegate and is a Garret .
Assuming the article is correct and assuming someone hasn't buggered about with an internal wastegate turbo , by deduction it must be a GT28-- as this is the smallest Garret without internal wastegate .
Of course it could be bigger *surprised*

nope, Jim has in a previous post said to TurboHarry that he has just disconnected the wastegate sense pipe and set it to max preload....
