Great work stu, but the more and more I look at this, the more things I can see possibly going wrong :s

You obviously know your way around an engine - good pics and useful for anyone else wanting to do one. Nice one.

Well if u do things properly and look after you shouldn't get any problems but like all mechanical things anything could happen it won't really make any less reliable than anything else

Just had the first dyno today with a very safe boost of 6psi she's currently at 260bhp at the wheels this is the lowest bhp she will be! I'll keep her running like this until some other parts and hope to get it at 14psi ish in a few weeks

14 psi is the limit, sadly the turbo runs out of puff at that point

so your hoping for around 310-320 area

do u still have the greddy downpipe ?

I think what Phil means is it will take 14psi but falls on its face lower in the rev range and an enlarged downpipe will help.

I always thought it was 10psi

I looked into the greddy alot as it was this or a comptech.
