These new modern turbos with their quick spool up time, would make the competition harder.

Sold the turbo and seeing what the C20XE can do!

Near Lincoln

a lot of those prices look fairly reasonable to be honest, the pulley and trigger kit looks nice

I was talking to Steve at MED yesterday. He said that they were very busy still and no sign of the recession as far as they are concerned.

It's not surprising really given the range of quality kit that they put out these days and it's reassurring that they have not had to resort to shiney gimmicks to stay in the game.

I didn't realise yours had an end like that Carl, makes sense that they would as its easier to make,

how about making a verto type?

I agree carl, it looks very very similar to yours *wink* and you made mine quite a while ago, albeit your clutch arm and plunger is a lot lighter. Only difference is mine doesn't have the thread on it for end stop
