The last time I was there Tim & Matt were bangin\' on about this yellow FD they put a T51 in and it transformed the car from **** (sorry) to f@@king amazing!!
I later went home to search "T51" on ebay LOL
Ian suggested I save my pennies...:god
I can only imagine how chuffed you are if the guys at RX motors are still impressed after years of fds...:Thumbs-up

hi guys, thinking of going single myself, was wondering if a gt 40 r turbo would be anygood, i have had it street ported down rx motors. i realise i would have to put a restrictor in the oil feed due to it being ball bearing turbo, how would the rx perform with that turbo, anybody have one ?
cheers

your best bet is to talk to Tim as he will have ported it and ask what turbo he would recommend for the porting he\'s done. (just give him you budget figure or he\'ll try and talk you into a T51KAI!!!) He and I decided on a GT4088 for mine and that was a really nice price too!

I love the T51, cant beat the noise!!!!!!!! Got an SPL on mine:). Don`t worry about a dry day, in the lower gears you still have to watch it a bit.
And if anyone mentions Lag I will B***H slap them, we have 5 gears, use them:Laugh :Laugh

1.4 bar,but that shouldn\'t have blown it.On investigation,the fuel pump appears to stop when the fuel pressure goes over 50psi.
It will be back on the road soon,I can\'t wait! Awesome car.:Thumbs-up
