Sold the turbo and seeing what the C20XE can do!

Near Lincoln

Pulls very very well through all the gears, torquey low down and on boost around the 3k mark when it pulls even harder.

not fully set up yet though so short shifting all the way.

Oh yeah and my ebay turbo is knackered! *happy*

Fine on boost but as soon as it idles for 15 seconds it just chucks smoke out the exhaust. its not breathing heavy, nothing out the breathers at all and it seems ok ish on boost. oh well not a big job. few more little bits to do then back to the rollers.

Slowly getting there. just going to get a replacement for what i've got as it seems nicely suited to the gearbox, once its up and spinning your away.

*smiley*

Ace! Get some video *wink*

My turbo does the same thing, I think it's just the seals. I really must get round to rebuilding /replacing it.
