    If you put a straight pipe on the inlet of the turbo you could dose like a VL turbo...... Ssssssss 2 2 2 lol

    The only good thing about an 80 series is..... the front end?? Wrong!!, the Engine?? Wrong!! the Full Time 4WD system?? Wrong!! Its the NissanPatrol.com.au stubby holder fitted over the transfer lever.

    Exhaust whistle?

    Some people believe its bad for the turbo. I can understand if your running 30 psi but on these low pressures i doubt it has any effect.

    i have come across this problem about four times now seems to be common problem but sometimes a slightly different sound. you need to check the first exhaust manifold port for signs of black soot sometimes this is very hard to see get a good light and check over the whole manifold area they usually have a broken stud sometimes they look ok but there broken. because of heat sheilding it is very hard to diagnose. in most cases the manifold will need machining and recommend changing everything studs, gasket anything thats hard to get too.

    Hope this helps sounds like a few of you have this problem.
    Cheers Alex
