Sold the turbo and seeing what the C20XE can do!

Near Lincoln

Just wondering what the recommended was for a high boost turbo

i.e. 14psi upwards.

I'm running a standard one at the minute and was wondering if it's also contributing to my misfire.

So what you all running?

i ran the standard one for years, then got the high boost one (think its a green one or montego one) and made no difference at all, still have a bit of a splutter off boost.

Think it is a benross trick,I did it as the oil kept disappearing too quick which must be caused by the piston going up too quick

I have tried both methods and still get the odd splutter as if the dashpot is firing up! go for the cheap option!

Ive got a spring from a N/A carb would that work the same, or are they not as strong?
