You live on a street called Lil Marco?

Look after it, as I'm sure you will, keen to get a ride when you've completed your next stage of mods.

Interesting to see what you think of the turbo as I have the exact same however, on a 2.5. Do the cams really make all the difference? I'm running pretty much the same power figures as you albeit much more torque at a little less boost but I notice a similar curve.

Can you shed any light?

All i notice from the turbo on the little 2.0 litre is its got nothing off boost, then all hits strong. The power keeps going and doesnt feel like it drops off at all. The cams no doubt help with the top end as well. Tuner recommends going to a smaller turbo to maximise bottom end power then let the cams help with the top.

All i know about the cams is they sound awesome sitting at the lights, had more than a few people yell out "DO U HAVE AFTERMARKET CAMS IN THAT THING". Sounds awesome, i barely listen to the radio anymore.

Would like to get it down the 1/4 mile but only one race left this season i think, and ill be working. Gonna get some more boost put into it next after i get 3 piece boost solenoid installed and see how it feels, then may/may not go down to a smaller turbo. I do like the top end pull, but it may cost me my licence lol
