  1. Its the usability of a daily that makes it special. nice early spool around 3000 rpm.say no more
  2. I use fully synthetic 5-30 mobil 1. It costs me around 45 with a £3 oil filter every 4thou miles. I would never use a anything cheap or lesser as I care for my car to the best I can.
  3. As above dude.i wrote the synopsis of smoking above
  4. 200 bhp is more than enough. stock ct9 @ bar or even as big as a hybrid @ bar.plenty
  5. Is the smoke white at idle or boost ? >>>> = turbo seals Or is it on engine braking ?>>>> = valve stem seals also do a compression check also and as above , I would do the rope trick on valves for sure
  6. Exactly as above.u really dont need more than 210 bhp in a starlet.getting handling and breaking as good as possible far out weighs having 250 bhp. I have changed to ct9 as I was fed up with td04 lag. Hybrids so much better and wouldnt want a td04 again.
  7. Thanks patman.it basic stuff and keeping people in the know is important. theres wayyy to much of this naughty trading going on.spoils it for others.
  8. I would go oem for sure.nothing but goodness from them
  9. Yeah I aint gonna run more than 1.1 bar. worried bout heat ect tbh aslong as its like a td04 at 0.8 bar then I am happy
  10. I have a speed vison hybrid ct9 atm.still in the process of setting up fully in conjunction with a external wastegate etc etc. I would expect they would make around 230 at 1.2 bar on a good day.
  11. Pmsl I have just noticed what has been screwed up on fittig that external, thats a ewg relocation kit !!!!!
  12. They stay open with no bolts in at all, and yes running without them is the norm tbh. will be fine
  13. Should be absolutely air tight.no leaks at all.
  14. Yeah just look at the 200 bhp guide.been covered so many times
  15. U cant do it anything other than dead centre as the valve remains In its body. U never ever lapp a valve in by rotating it one way.it goes both ways one after the other.i think you need to watch a video on youtube on how to lapp a valve in. thats goin to help you not ruin yours.
  16. I dont have any pics but the Internal valve is essentially the same as an engine valve and it has a seat that has to be air tight. the valve seat in my wastegate is removable/repalceable. Was really easy to lapp it in and cost me £7 for paste. well worth the 30 mins it takes to ensure that them gases aint escaping and losing you boost
  17. And as above has ure penny been welded. what wastegate spring you got in there ?
  18. Just gone hybrid ct9 and external wastegate. Decided to lap/seat my wastegate valve In as its just gotta help and I know for a fact on my "cheap" wastegate the valve and seat wont be MATCHED. has helped alot and I would highly advise doing it.made a big difference
  19. Funnily enough I have just gone over to ct9 hybrid with external wastegate dude. I get boost start at 2,500 and full boost of 17psi @ around 3,500
  20. Jeez those welds. Wow. Not what u would expect with That price tag. no cool
  21. Get an old blitz one.they dont come with a diaphragm for that reason.they literally last indefinatley. paid 30 quid for mine and it doesnt leak whatsoever.
