Are there any Australian turbo wholesalers/distributers who are competitive?

Same goes with a car doesnt it? You buy second hand with anything, you run the risk of it going wrong. I bought my 34 second hand for $900 when they were brand new for $1150 on ebay to the door step. The guy i bought it off was a decent bloke and offered to meet me at his house or business, not some dodgy maccas car park.

Rails not needed? Just thought it may be a good idea to ensure each cylinder is receiving the exact same amount of fuel.

Hmm well considering most of the main players here don't run fuel rails seems to be proof enough.

Tuna with the 207 of torque death... std fuel rails
Kato with the 205 of spool terror... std fuel rails
JimmyS with 205 of warp10... std fuel rails
Chrus with the unloved 207 fugly bug of skids... std fuel rails
Jaron with the 257 of boost bukkake.. std fuel rail (i think)
Thood with the 207 which will fling turds at you at 250km/h .. std fuel rails
Ballsak with his testicle tangling skids machine.. std fuel rails.
Intra with the 205 of Japan FAIL Train.. std fuel rails.

I also believe that tuna wrote up a document explaining how the fuel system works in the impreza series of engines (applicable to other models). Might want to read that first to understand how it all works and then make your own judgments.

Short and sweet.. the fuel rails are of 1:1 increase per pound of boost.
