With my 306 in the garage i'm trying to decide how far to go all(ish) or nothing??
As it needs a new turbo i feel i may as well go for an upgrade probably be abit of a sheep and go for gt20....
i would like to go for a vnt but not quite sure im up to mapping it orrr i think dum-dum or piggy posted a video where it seemed the vanes were operated mechanically via the waste gate it was said whilst it wasn't as good as full vnt it was better than waste-gated..... interesting...
I'm also planning on rebuilding the engine with an oil cooler, RHR rods and ARP head-bolts.
so my questions are:
Im trying to get my head around compressor maps, any tips in finding good a compatible turbo?
is it worth me trying to learn how to set up a VNT and mapping it? anyone done it?
the video? is this the "boost can" method?
or
do I just get another T2 and sack off the rods and bolts and have the car back on the road sooner?
although I feel ill be back at it before long to replace the turbo then i guess when i blow a rod or the head ill back again......
