Thanks mate. I was lucky and they sort of just came my way. Had planned an M90 powered car initially which is great but these manifolds were too good pricewise to refuse :D

I reckon your going to find it a lot easier to make a lot more power with the turbo than the M90!

ANNNDDD you can also turn the boost down on a wet day if needs be ...... on second thoughts ;)

Make sure you do the same haha. I think it depends on what track we're at as to who'll be showing tail!

I've been round Winton in a live axle VS with a Kaaz and it was a good thing. Totally squirmed for every bit of traction available and felt really alive. It smashed apart from heavy down shifting after it's 2nd track day so I'll be sticking with the much cheaper Tru trac after that

Yeah just almost perpetual for gaining top end torque!

Turn down boost? I'll not hear of that lol. I selected this turbo for good power spread and response so pedal should do the trick if the ass gets too loose hopefully
