Delco,

I take it form the change in lift you quoted you're basing on 1.5:1 standard ratio.

I thought the standard ratio was already 1.6:1?

went out tuning the VB today lasted about 10 minutes then we were getting low on fuel time to pull over and slap in the 20L of 110/130 avgas and a few degrees timing lasted 5 mins before twisting the diff till oil pissed out and then blowing another T5 think them roller rockers and av make a big difference LOL this diff has been in and out of the car over time and has never made a noise but withen a minute was starting to howl as the diff tweaked out of alignment then the horrible smell of gear oil burning on the exhaust filled the car man we havnt even dropped the exhaust or fitted our CAI headlight yet new T5 is in allready feels way faster than before january drags getting excited and the smell oh buitiful lead avgas smell gotta love that turbo loves it posting pics soon of what lead looks like on a turbine wheel and exhaust valves
