Hi Guys, had to jump in here and say that there is always a slight power gain by using a external gate even on a normal turbo with the factory gate closed due to the lack of turbulent exhaust gas flowing into the system. Have seen this on many cars on the dyno mostly mazda's but should be the same o...

Yep Bigelboe your right and whats the first thing you do to mod your T2 is more boost or power :D so it grunts down low even more to stress the box even harder. I have my spare T2 box down with a gearbox freak at the moment and he is trying to find a way to LSD the sucker i will keep you posted on t...

Hey Bigelboe, the reason i said to look out for any puffs of fuel out the back when under boost is when the car pings or dets whatever you want to call it will not burn the fuel load properly so excess fuel get blown out the back. When tunning big HP cars in the past we noticed that you can actually...

Hey Bigelboe i had a noise similar under load and i thought it maybe det but it turned out to be the gearbox. Get someone to follow you when you are under load and if any puffs of fuel come out the exhaust while you still have your foot into it its having det probs. [/img]
