hi there, how much for just the engine and head? i dont need sump, alternator, inlet manifold or the power steering pump? cheers

hi there, no the turbo is not noisy atall, boosts fine, i originally thought it was the turbo so i was going to go hybrid, it never overheats and fan cuts in fine, really strange and confused, cheers for your advice, appreciated

cheers for the advice, i was also told the valves were worn by a local garage, are they easy to replace or expensive, which is the best way to repair? i dont want to pay a garage to do it if i can help it, save money .. i will take off the intercooler piping soon as i can, cheers for the advice, appreciated

hi guys, i have a problem with blue smoke (heavy) i thought it was my turbo but its boosts perfectly, it happens when i ease off the accelerator and accelerate again and it chucks out buckets full of blue smoke, it doesnt over heat and is loosing lots of oil, but there is no oil leek anywhere, any advice would be appreciated, thank you

Ok i will do a compression test in the next couple of days. Approximately what should the results be on the compression test?

Thanks for your replies, I have been doing a bit of reading and it sounds like it is the oil seal on the exhaust side. Is there a test you can do to check piston rings? Can I just put on a standard actuator and plug in the standard hi/low boost and drive away or will it have to be remapped? How much for your actuator? Thanks Dan

Surely if it was piston rings it would smoke constantly? It doesnt smoke when driving at low revs but only when you drive in boost is smokes. Thanks Dan

Hello When i am going along in boost and i release my foot a lot of smoke is coming out of the exhaust. The car is also burning oil. Has the oil seals gone in the turbo? If they have what is the best think to do? Also when the car was brought I was told the actuator is at 1bar and the standard hi/low boost controller is not working. How can I connect the boost controller back up? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Dan

Thanks guys for your help. Is there a good way to fit the seals back in?

Hello There seems to be oil coming out pass the ht lead on one of the cylinders. I thought it might be the rocker gasket. But there seems to be no individual spark plug gaskets. Please let me know if i am wrong.. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Dan
