Ya sure there is no gasket??
I dont mean the vband itself but where it bolts too the turbo??
I know how much you like??????????
So you have a 2 piece turbine housing? A v band part that is bolted to back of turbo?
Yes that is correct..Quote:

Thats similar to mine, I dont have a gasket and it doesn't leak, they are machined surfaces. If you can find a gasket it wont hurt. But while it is apart just make sure the surfaces are flatQuote:

Isn't that the type of turbo you have?
Kinugawa? Or kowabunga turbos. I don't know too much about them have read that people have and love them on a td, not many horror stories either. The mamba ones are around the $1300 mark and the kowabunga about $1kQuote:

No Winnie mine is a Chinese special for $250.
I am selling a couple of shotguns soon so may look into using the cash for this.
Do you think you will have enough to maybe get an 11 or 12mm injector pump instead? or aswell??????.???????????????????????????????Quote:

Would it be better, or could get away with, a better turbo and intercooler, and then do the pump later? As the pump is the exy part of all...

Pumps and turbos are all pretty close price wise. Any good turbo will be 2-3k and any good pump will be the same. Cheap turbos are just thag cheap sure they work but will never be as good as the real deal.
