    Thought the power gain was negligible between the 15 and the 16 turbo's a rica would help a great deal

    I fitted my angled outlet 16t when my exhaust and downpipe went on and I'm not sure if it may just have been the exhaust mods, but the 16t seems to have made a large improvement over the 15g. My car seems to pull so much stronger now. I'm having my car Rica'd on Tuesday and I will probably have a power run with before and after the upgrade to see just how much of an improvement there is. Its worth doing Sidney if not to just replace an older turbo for a newer one or a refurbed one as it will make a huge difference IMHO. Hows the engine removal going?

    If your turbos on the way out or the bearing journals have died, I have a good 15g for sale.

    15G are always normally quicker up the drag strip and have better low down power, I would go 19T over a 16t that will see over 300 BHP

    hat V70r do you have Mark? Different models and transmission types have different turbos on them.

    i doubt that has anything to do with the turbo .. more because the cars are lighter (850 compared to P1 x70's).. there is a negligible difference between the 15G and the straight outlet 16T..
