The wastegate is hooked straight up to the compressor outlet as standard, and I tried using a 1.5mm restrictor and also different sized bleed jets (as used on my SR20) and I could not get more than 9psi. I was starting to think that either 1. the wastegate was blowing open or 2. the turbo just ain't got that much steam.. What am I doing wrong? I also plugged up the hole in the manifold where the overboost gizmo used to live. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of E Smith Sent: Sunday, 27 January 2002 11:24 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: E15ET Geordie, The engines can be made to sing, I have one in my VB11 postie van that is putting out 180 crank hp (146 hp @ wheels) running on LPG and just 11 Psi on the standard T2 It is red rocker version of the engine though and has a little better head design than the black ones. In a car that weighs 780 kg it lights em up really well and compensation for torque steer is a second nature. I run skinny 155/60 x 13 tyres on mine and a 1" exhaust tip welded on the 2.5" dump concealed behind the back of the car. Fools em every time and bags em up really well :-) Cheers Feral Errol -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Geordie Smith Sent: Saturday, 26 January 2002 9:16 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: E15ET Importance: High Thanks for that. I have 4 x E15ET engines and 2 exas. I'm just finishing off doing up the first one and am about to start working on the second one. They are one hellava car for the price, VERY sporty. I'm thinking of using one for some laps at oran park and racing my sister in club events. I checked out the ET list for a while, bit too much homey talk for me. Just too sik maaaate! -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Julian Sent: Saturday, 26 January 2002 12:10 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: E15ET Well you made me go down to the garage to get the service manual... Valve Clearance Intake Hot 0.28 (.011) - Cold 0.22 (.009) Exhaust Hot 0.28 (.011) - Cold 0.22 (.009) Incidentally they ARE the same as the non turbo model, I looked out of curiosity. Do you have an E15ET Geordie?
