so wouldnt that mean with a bigger port and valve you could get the same amount of air in at a lower boost pressure than if you were using smaller ones? thread hijack lol, should start another one up

ahh ok, didnt know if it had been tried and found to be of no benefit,tho on a boosted engine bigger ports and valves are a good thing arnt they?

if thats the case i might have to keep an eye out for one and give the credit card a raping then lol

mind the sadevs arnt rated to highly either and from what ive been told need rebuilds every (somthing)k miles? could be bull tho?

that he is, and he isnt soft on it in the slightest lol but ure thinking in terms of bhp where as its torque thats relevant

is it a 5 turbo or a gtt? if its a gtt, easiest was is engine straight up and out, disconect the drive shafts, undo the 3 engine mounts disconect downpipe and all pipes and wires. up and out in 30min, remove gearbox fit new clutch then reverse it all. 3hrs maximum
