Interesting fact, bov's do absolutely nothing with regards to increasing turbo life

Only 1 thing worse than a bov, and thats 2 bovs lol

Loss of power/engine died after giving it boost

Boost pipe -
As the interior is out, sit in it, have someone attack it with a hose and see where its coming from

Its a rolling shell, its not a TT6, think about that for a minute. Also if youre doing it to make money, you'll spend more than you'll make back. thats how projects work...

Perfect daly driver, shame youre in the arse end of nowhere

The fan increasing with engine speed is the viscous clutch giving up the ghost, you should be able to stop the fan with the engine running and hold it with a finger. They can be rebuilt and if you have the shroud its by far the best cooling option. Electric fans wont cause an issue like I said but it sounds like you've already made your decision based on looks rather than function. BMW boxes - the ratio's are way off if you use the diesel boxes, the M3 boxes unbelievably noisy, a mate of mine swapped his M3 box to a 154 it was that annoying.

Ok - Drop in gearbox would be a Toyota spec box, R154, V160 etc bolt right up with the correct drive shaft, but why specify 600hp? A02B is the same diff as an A01B, just a different ratio The stock fan doesnt make a noise, unless the clutch is shot, but twin electric fans will be noisier for sure. Wont give any issues but are less effective than the stock fan and shroud. Finally, this is Supra world, home of the 500 quid switch, theres no bargains any more

Do the distributers on these have a vacuum advance?
-
No, Ive never done that on any vehicle Ive ever owned, when Ive changed a turbo yes but not the oil.

Thats Verstappens forte now

Its finally happened, well its been talked about for years but I wonder what triggered his decision? Has he seen something in the new car he doesnt like? Was it Serra's move to Ferrari? Will Bonno be going as well?
