    As above really, after reading all the rave reviews on the BW EFR Turbos, getting really tempted, so might move the T4 on...

          I'll be looking for a gt30 or t4 for my spare engine but I'm thinking old school t4 is the way to go

              We have a friend who has a Mobil 1 500 touring car and that has a t4 on it but it was owned by Johnson I believe and that revs like you wouldn't believe the engine revs so freely and fast I'm thinking of going old school as it worked then so should work now. I'm not bothered about a nice road friendly engine as when the car goes out its out for one reason only it's to scare me or get spanked around a track

                You need to go in a car with a good twin scroll set up as they are on a diff planet.

                  Mark, you need to build a MAD Escort Cosworth demo car so we can all have a go and see if we agree

                  To me, its still going to be a small 4 pot with a big turbo so will still suffer the same inherent problem of lag that they all do........ ok maybe of all the routes to go this twin scroll thing will be the least laggy but to say its on a different planet is quite a bold statement........ i remain to be convinced that the gains justify the cost of upgrading but look forward to having a chance to see the light

                    You need to go down at least 2 sizes in Garrett to be able to match the responce that the Twin Scroll set up had.

                        Its still a T4 if the car is diff than what you know a T4 is like its the car and not the turbo thats doing it,
                        Adjust your spec to what you like in the other car.

                          Being a touring car it probably has solid lifter which help a lot with the way they rev, make a big difference!

                            I'm sorry but no way.. I have solid lifters and my car revs like normal.. it's down to engine spec like cams..but solid lifters enable you to rev more..

                              No way? Do u think touring cars have standard cams then?
