    Bit long away, my good wife and kids want to travel Tasmania next October. Thinking a two week trip via the high country.
    All the good 4BD1's are so far away Mine is a one off around here, not that I'd call it good. I just like it

    You'll need 2 weeks just for the high country and a month for Tas

    Mine also has no lag worth worrying about. As shown in that video it builds boost fast and from almost idle.
    However, I want VNT to give that same low end but without choking off the topend.

    I've even owned the VNT turbo (workshop ornament) for about 3 years, it keeps my water/air intercooler company in the box.

    Lag

    Same here Dougal mine has zero lag but does just starve a little at the top end of the rev range. I was going the twin turbo route but have lost interest. I just enjoy driving it for now.

    Do you recon this would do anything? Maybe a tad too small.

    Shouldn't cause any lag at all.

    I looked long and hard at them but couldn't find a nice way to make it fit. The electric water pumps for those subaru systems are good for any air/water system.

    In that vid, mine isn't much slower to build up boost but your lower gearing is a plus in that dept.

    I agree in theory about the top end, BUT I can still get to the fuel governor in 4th gear, approx 145Km/h. It gets there quite quickly too, so I am quite happy with its all round performance really.

    And I sympathise with 'workshop ornament' staus. I have the same problem with aux water tanks, twin shock set up, twin spare carrier parts, etc etc. ...One day....
