:ok:

Looks good :D

 

I understand 550s and resistor packs if you've got a UK model (they are already there!)

But if you're upgrading from a JSpec, why not go for bigger ones, since you need bigger than 550 anyway? :confused:

1 word mate, cost, i've had to buy the wife a Yaris to keep her happy, the 550's were £200 of the board i'll have to see if father christmas will drop me off a set of 650's, Ian, Soop Dog thanks my 1.3 bar run was the only bit of abuse till it gets set up, to be honest i am scared to give it full throttle till a dino operator gives me the :ok: i dont want to get this far and blow the ferker up, Adi no e-manage at the moment SAFC and ITC for now but e-manage could be a possibily in the future (lol Ian)

If it's cost then fair enough, I could be quite tight myself :respekt:

For example bigger injectors for Vaux turbos are typically sold in the £200 - £400++ depending on flow (per set of 4)

 

I would get the exact same ones from the States for around £80, inc delivery. So I could afford several different sets to experiment, and then sell them at a profit at way below the standard 'rip off Britain' prices.

 

When it's time to dismantle my fuel rail I'll investigate equivalents for the Supra.
