Sold the turbo and seeing what the C20XE can do!

Near Lincoln

Ask Jimster....

thats all ill say..

Think if its been running ok then you should be fine, i believe they have a few quality issues though...

There are better places to get work done though.

think on jim's it was a poorly ground head which had a hole through to the water jacket and also a poorly machined crank.

think he also managed to hole a piston before it was even run in although im not sure of the cause

we need more info!

Ring MED with the numbers on your head, and find out what the chamber vol / spec is and we'll guide you on the boost pressure.

It could be a head that MED has simply put new valve guides in, or a head they've opened out to 30cc. Both give very different results!!!

I use a MED head - they high boost jobby. The quality of the work seems to be good (in my opinion) And no faults - it has been independently pressure tested etc by my local maching shop - they recon its the dogs b*****s

The guy who did all the race heads for MED was a Simon More... sadly there are two or three others at MED who do heads and have no idea what they are doing.

Simon now runs Morspeed....

www.morspeed.co.uk

and the quality of his heads is superb!
