As for the isuzu its laying dormant for a few more months yet and id like a VVT for it as well tho prob a little bigger than the one i just scored so I will put it on the TDI as its my daily drive :D
Ben, which turbo has your Saab got?
Dougal Thanks for the sugestion I will most likely go with the EFR7064 I have tried to make
sense of the all the info provided but afraid it was all wasted I did read somewhere that that the twin scroll version was nearly as good as a variable unit without the complications About $170 extra and the need to fabricate a new manifold.Worth it?
Any Comments or sugestions gratefully received either pos or neg
For a divided manifold to help on a 4 cyl, you need to pair 1-4 and 2-3 runners together.Quote:

Depends how much free time you've got to build a manifold I suppose.
Free time over next 12 months [ none going sailing]:D I am just trying to get a
heap of gear together for the next Defender episode I have put the D back together with the 3.0 diffs so it is at least mobile .The 300 tdi s get up and go seems to have got up and gone:o As regards the twin versus single do you think the rewards of the twin would justify the effort ?
Many thanks Noel
I would just fit the single entry housing. If it were a 6 cyl I would definitely use the double entry.Quote:

Hey AM, I had the same problem - ended up going to Treadstone Performance in the US.
You can get a blanking plate for the CRV, but it doesn't do any harm as long as it sees boost so just plum it to the inlet manifold and you should be OK. As you don't have an ECU the BCSV can be removed.. I used the nipple for a mechanical boost gauge.
Thanks for the reply much the same as I figured just wondering about the BSV IF you switched that with a switch you could control your waste gate (good or bad right or wrong)

So was the freight $586 seems a lots I looked at the price of these turbo and they seem to be around $1700 new is that right. Does the one you have a T3 or is it a T4 flange. I notice there are 4 versions 3 are T4 and 1 T3 available which one did you get for the motor.Quote:
