What? Why on earth would you want twin turbos. So much extra weight and plumbing complication. And so much fail. Much better with a correctly sized modern billet ballbearing turbo. Twin turbo died in the 90s.

One was a 2nd hand slap together of parts built in a week to make it to powercruise .. i never expected that to last to long it was only pulled because it had bent valves from smashing the antilag a bit to hard..

The 207 had an oil pick up crack on the back resulting it dropped oil pressure that was just inconveniant more then anything.. but gave me an excuse to go stroker

And this last one fuel pressure dropped on wot with ethanol its a messy result


Ive never actually broken a diff .. suprised? Me to

I accidently ran one dry for 2km after install bevause we forgot we drained it when removed from my mates the week before.. it was a lil whiney but nothin wrong.. its still in a car now thats rwd and bakes a mean skid

Didnt you also have one that heads/gasket lifted or wrong torque to studs or something? And another where you put the avcs pulley on backwards. And what was up with that one when we were both up at ASG? That was low comp or something wasnt it, like wromg pistons or rods or something? Surely its more than that hey?

Its all learning curve. Make the mistakes once and learn from them. Hopefully you wont make the same mistake twice. I admire that your getting in there and doing it yourself. That is precisely how you learn how to do it.
