No mate not really planning to go to any meets unless theres a dyno day local or until i go to FCS, Thing is i set my self the limit of 25psi so dont really wana be going over that as i havent got a back up if it goes bang. If i get a spare engine or another car as a back up then i will happly turn the fuel up some more. I Just dont like the fact of the de-wastegated turbo any more, as i think it would be alot faster now at 25 psi with a dam site more fuel going in. But i just carnt do that as more fuel= more psi

[CJ_Derv]

Even still mate lda tuning could help a tad maybe. not neccessarily adding more fuel for more boost but getting the fuel in at the right psi so your not losing out on power low down the revs

Welded wastegate isnt too bad on these iv ran over 30 for 6month now no probs but dont thrash it all the time tbh iv found you look after these engines good oil regular service etc they are fairly reliable even at high boost my blaze ran over 30psi for 4 years and threw a rod on standard setup 2 weeks after buying her

[Chris_90]

So bit of an update, car is back on k14 and top mount. just exhaust and quick shift to take off then its back to standard. Plan is that it will be for sale in about 4 weeks for £300 as it is on steelys or i will be taking a few bits off and scrapping rest not really fussed what happens with it tbh.

But good news is i haven't bought a 106 i got another 306 so im sticking around bet some of you are gutted, But i genuine like this 306oc best form ive been on by far all decent people! this is why i keep buying 306's. any way new project thred will be coming soon when i pick the new motor up

[ozonehostile]

To be fair i seem to get a fair bit of abuse any way as i get bored strip the car of bits and sell up but people dont like it when i do that even tho its my car oh well new car is way better looking so its all good

You'd only just got the turbo on! Hope the new cars nice!

You say you got bored, but did you even turn it up with the turbo on?

I did turn it up 2 times when I started I was at 15psi I ended up at 26psi but set my limit at 25 psi as didn't want blow it up

[Chris_90]

So didnt like the idea of having a hdi agin so sold it Anyway been to drive a few 106's great little cars but will never be able to put a smile on my face like this d turbo does so im deiced im going to keep it for now, as a few no me i change my mind all the time so expect a scrapping thread soon!

Anyway bought a manual boost controllaer, looking at some 405 mi16 alloys tomorrow and some 30mm lowering springs. Gona be having some new disc's and pads up front maybe some new rear brake shoes. Then gonna sort the other little problems out make it a nice car

Oh and manged to snap the drivers seat today with the boost lol so fixed that solid feels so much better now, the simple fixes are the best
