getting a new turbo custom built for me.
T15 sized but bored out to a t20 from a range rover so itll spool up like a t15 but compress alot more air meaning more boost

Won't it just have more air to compress due to the larger bore, therefore taking longer doing so resulting in lag?
Not taking the mic, not really clued up on turbo's myself, but thats how it looks to me.

its a bigger compressor side but spools as fast as the standard turbo meaning its shifting more air
How much is this costing you if you don't mind me asking.....
OP
OP
£411 for rebuild + Uprating
mate its £105 for the dash flocking if you want me to do you a custom dash then let me know
OP
OP
ill be intouch for the custom dash matey cant afford it this month but maybee next
right so far....
got new Hybrid T15 back now looks loads different inside the compressor housing also spindle is much thicker
got my new under 10k engine block in, just waiting for my multipoint head to be skimmed, got a better turbo oil feed pipe too, once the head has been skimmed (might see how much for port and polish + match to the inlet) then i can begin to wire in my megasquirt ECU and basically take my dash out the car and rewire everything properly.
also going to get remote engine start put onto my clifford and turbo timer feature.
all going to plan so far.
