      As Iain says great set up, mines running 482bhp on standard manifolds on a gt3071

      Cossiedavid will sort you out with 1 from cr turbos,

      There's a wee bit of messing about to fit it on a 4x4 manifold but worth it ! I prefer the standard exhaust manifold set up,

            Nothing to the manifold, the turbo just needs spun and the head of 1 of the bolts shaved, its not too bad of a job, reyland done the mods to fit 4x4 manifold on my turbo, but I helped my mate do his that he got from Cossie david,

              Glad I went GT30 tbh. Lazy off boost and a bit laggy but it's low comp and could pro be down to cam timing aswell. No probs though get it going and it's awesome lol

                Mines ain't lazy or laggy, and that was before mapped properly on that turbo

                  I have used a GT30 for over three years.

                  With the correct engine spec and mapper (Mark Shead) it's a very good turbo.

                  Some info here:
