reason why i want to change is the hesitation problems etc and leaky bosost around 80 mph, causes me traction light to trip on sometimes.

will you drop me a pm or just a normal post letting me know how good/bad it is as i am very interested in this d/v
IIRC there is a fitting guide on zlet.co.uk but with you having the baileys on it will be a 2 second job:cheesy:

that sound ace lol

i also wouldnt go for the forge one, i had a forge one on my subaru impreza and always found that it was slow to react allowing air to go back through the turbo which made a nice flutering sound but one day it took its tole and bashed the clip that holds the main shaft of the turbo in place which caused the shaft to slide in to the turbo housing and through small bits of alli in to my engine, luckly i had a front mounted intercooler and i think the long piping stopped any bits of metal getting in to the engine.


also read the above link, the way the hks one works sound better the the forge one.
