    The problem with the Holsets are the compressor turbines. they designed for diesels that dont rev high so flow for high rpm petrol engines is poor

    thankfully Holset have recognised that their turbos are being used more and more in the tuner market and are releasing a "super" version of their turbos with different compressor turbines. they will be a little more expensive but i would def hold off if you havent bought one already

    we will have theses available when launched

    Nicky doesnt run a heater in his car and RB's like heat too...Dont think a heater makes that much of a difference to cooling.. Only reason why i'd keep it is for wet/cold days....so my heater is stayin

    But that does look like a big awkward set up in the chaser lad.. Oh and cut the fuck outta them doors

    I've see the water temp going down alot faster when you turn on on the heater to full.
    I got rid of most of the ducting ,just keep the 1 for the windscreen .

    Rip it all out and just make sure your rad is more than capable.

    For the windscreen, you can get small little lightweight heaters or if you wanted to go mad, get s heated windscreen

    I dont know, any suggestions? I want dish, i also want a flat face.........if u catch my drift

    Bit of an Update, got a small bit done during the week, its hard to get things done as my "shed" is an open yard. Got the new floor in, just a sheet of alliminium. Also got rid of the horrible sound deadening in the boot, thanks the Anto for his screwdriver skills. Next on the list is mounting my pumps and filters etc, take the rest of the cage out and strip all the heating boxes etc out...then hopefully its off to Paul for wiring
