    Same here, showing no threads what so ever. I've read boost leak but its intermittent, sometimes full power comes-at-me-bro and gives me quite a shock on booting / 3/4 throttling and sometimes it seems to choke a bit before shooting off, and no, not like turbo lag , just like somethings holding it back.. same here, hard to expplain but need a video showing it.. and obviously I cant hold a camera while driving :U

    Well inadvertently, I have made some progress on the missing issue thanks to a porsche that had to have it, I have narrowed down the issue to 4250-5250 rpm, just when the 15g is boosting fully and as the revs continue rising and the boost starts to fall the miss disappears. so one of two things was happening 1. spark blow out or 2. boost leak.

    over the last few runs to work and back I've played a bit trying different things to pin point the issue further and found that I can now here a boost leak by using part throttle and letting the turbo race up after 3500rpm in 4 or 5 I can now hear a leak which I've not been hearing before so hopefully this will end the problem once sorted

    P.S. absolutely loving this new ecu I got from ebay, I thought my hlm was fun this just takes it up another notch

    Right folks whats the current story on oil pumps as I seem to remember that a new volvo one can be worst that re-using an existing one in a fresh engine build...what are your thoughts and experiences ????

    Ok you've all had time to reply on the oil pump question, obviously nobody is playing with them lately so we'll move on to the current bits going on for olive. Slowly working on stripping and prepping a new T-5 lump for building up with forged rods etc ready for next year. Just started in to sorting some poly-bushing for the lower engine steady as the old one is a bit chewed up

    So I drilled the old rubber and push the sleeve out and machined it up ready for the new bush and machined the engine mounting too. I then machined up a new bush, pressed in the sleeve and then pressed the bush into the mounting

    just the subframe mounting to do now and a lick of paint, then onto the lower suspension arms, it will be interesting to see how this hard nylon stands up the the harsh punishment it will get out on the open road...

    that confirms what I thought I'd heard, so it is the oil pick up pipe that is double O ringed then ?? is there any way of checking wear in the pumps (feeler gauge measurements / tolerances etc) ??

    News flash ...... new engine damper modificated completed, pic's to follow when painted and the rest of the engine bay is re-assembled, I've gone down the claymore route (built not bought) and utilised the donor v70's tailgate strut and the body mounts too, so good old part re-cycling and modify to suit you'll see

    Well 13's are a big call and certainly a target mate . I'll cheer you on.

    Phenominal is no small word either!!
