If you go for a different size turbo it'll mean another remap so probibly better of sticking with the gt35r.
Would it take much to get the sil80 up to spec ;)
I dont think the housing is damaged, i mean a light scrapping! But is that all it needs??? The sil80 is a good girl but being honest ive put 10k into the Chaser and it wouldnt sell even if i tried!Quote:

Best talking to the experts tomorrow + take it from there.
I taught that turbo wasn't very old "think I remember bon posting that it was replaced not too long ago".
Any idea what went wrong to cause the core to fail ?
Did the oil/water temp go very high ?
Ya i may do that for Fermoy, hmmmm i must check that!! Dunno if he replaced it!! The car was hotish today alright, not boiling but the weather didnt help!! I tried keepin her as cool as possible ie 2 laps drifting - one driving off boost to cool down!Quote:
