But just think of the piece of mind once it's done
Of course, just depends on how the car's been treated. I wasn't terribly hard on mine, dunno about previous owner though.

Well done with the rebuild, love it!!!!

and as Russ said standard VF43 turbo isn't a bad thing especially if you want (as you said) low-down/mid-range punch with the odd track trash thrown in.

TD05-20G would be another choice for extra oopmh without sacrificing too much driveability (along with maybe a CAI, Silicone Inlet, BCS, etc). Would be pants-wetting quick.

Cheers, enjoying the ride as is for now. But possibility of an oil leak off the turbo, so thoughts are swinging towards what twin scroll set-up to go for in the near future. Plus might as well through on a CAI while I'm at it, get it all tuned at the same time.

People's thoughts on twin scroll, and CAI options?
