Bon- Oh yes, well, its a Holset HX40 with a fairly small exhaust side, so basically a Garrett GT40 but way more efficient at high boost, and stronger.

Lightning- A pair. Just found the link... [ WHEELS UK : SCC WHEEL SPACERS ] Only took a couple of days delivery too.

Bob- Indeed mate. I know plenty of people that has used Holsets, and everyone seems to rate them higher than pretty much everything around. Main thing im looking forward to is being able to afford to build an engine that can make the most of the Holset party piece, ie having huge compressor exducers (compared to the inducers) and therefore being perfectly happy and mega efficient even when running over 3bar boost.
Garretts are on their knees anywhere after about 2bar, and I like boost, boost means torque...
