    Set up idea's please.

    Hello people.

    Here is what i current have: C1J standard engine, Standard 32 Dis carb, piper 270 cam, T2/T25 turbo, larger down pipe, Pace intercooler (Front mount soon!) Samco boost hoses, uprated head/inlet gasket.

    Now what boost pressure/Fueling would you recommend i run with the above items to gain good bhp but still be reliable? Currently running about 14psi.

    Cheers.

    1 bar manifold with a cheeky bit of ign advance if possible. I had so much fun with my gtt setup like that.

    I just done the tdc wire swap mate

    Mine on this setup done me a 14.2@94 at shakespeare. Ultra reliable at this level of tune too. Id be checking the fuelling with a wideband to be on teh safe side though if you have access to one.
