kinugawa stuff is fine. but youd prob have to redesign the rod too..... as for that other cbv, wouldnt bother. stop being a cheap barstool! ;)
looks like they do quite a range, including volvo TD04.
[QUOTE=T5RatherAmusin;645737]kinugawa stuff is fine. but youd prob have to redesign the rod too..... as for that other cbv, wouldnt bother. stop being a cheap barstool! ;)[/QUOTE] ive got ne choice to be tight. havnt worked for 13 weeks, only income ive got is off the exhausts i build. ive got a lot of mods to pay for between now and xmas.
Y between now n xmas? is it coz of shark custom? If so. Youd prob be better off with the stock parts than these cheap ones. Do it right. Do it once. Get it to best level you can then go remap. I think they said theyd honour theyr deal price (which hasnt been confirmed yet ffs lol) If u can make the date for whatever reason....
i want it done by xmas cause thats about the time i expect to be driving again. im taking advantage of the fact i cant drive and doing everything to the car while its of the road. im only going down the shark route if i fit a new turbo other wise its staying with the rica stg 2. once im back to work i cant bebother with doing a bit here a bit there. this way i can take my time and do it once the right way not the rushed way. after 80k the actuator wont be as strong as it once was hence changing it.

i will prob end up with a forge one but thought would ask to see if anyone had tried one of these befor.
[QUOTE=T5RatherAmusin;645737]kinugawa stuff is fine[/QUOTE] i've got a Kinugawa exhaust turbine & waiting for a professional verdict on it as they chewed the locking nut up ALOT trying to balance it
I've got a forge one. At the time of looking t5pete had trouble with a jap one. Got no complaints at all, although mines standard boost etc at the mo.
If you want to stick a different actuator to run higher boost I would try a -31 actuator
think ill get a forge when the time comes. mines prob ok just want the car perfect when gose back on the road. that that its rough or anything just me getting carried away and wanting to change everything thats servicable.
