little update.

Turbo has been away for a few weeks with a well established specialist from another rover forum.

He could not get it to balance as well as he liked and the input shaft was on its limit 0.008gm usually he likes them at 0.001gm. Anyhow he claims it will be ok but i have opted for a new shaft to make sure its good as i really cant be bothered to faff about with it in a year. it will only get worse.

He mentioned how the turbo from BDM is not quite how it makes out to be, compressors not matched in size like they should be and generally he claimed the turbo isnt as good as others for the size of the bearings etc its being pushed fairly hard and for the track he would plonk a decent t28 on it with better housings and somthing or other.

its a lovely drive as it is so im reluctant would just rather stick with it for now.

got my new pads ordered at nearly £180 quid a set i hope they bed in well... lol

got my wheels in for refurb next week

all good fun
