    think im just going to rebuild mine and boost it up to 15
    cant find much info on the rd28t. i had it running on 13psi stock everything. but now i have done the head changing manifold and adding a intercooler. will also put an exhaust. see how 13psi will go with all that. if im happy how it goes after that ill leave it

    Hey mate what benefit did you get out of the new manifold / intercooler? Noticeable difference? How's the manifold different from stock?

    I've done 2.5in straight thru mandrel bent exhaust including dump and apart from sounding awesome I don't reckon it made that much difference.
