I was going to run a stock engine but after this discussion of potential for boost I pulled the standard engine out last night and stripped it and sent it to the machine shop today ready for some forgies. Got copper head gaskets too so I'll either break this turbo putting it where bullseye say it can run or may get lucky with the gimicky wheel and make some good power.

If anyone knows of an affordable turbo speed sensor please do tell. Sharing is caring haha

A little bit of goodness turned up in the post today :thumbup:

Thanks to VL400 for patience in answering my questions but it came with excellent instructions as always so should be good fun getting it up and running once the engine is back in the car

Awesome to hear! Even though not many running yet I'm more than willing to have a crack with these on my car under high boost

Picked up some LS2 coils from a friend the other day and even came with ignition loom section so plugs are sorted :lol:
