Get out to engage the lockout, over ride ram is compressed just enough to stop the lockout disabling the brakes. Go back to the car get spanners, drop fluid ...

Intercoolers
There is a thread on this somewhere but will briefly go back over something I saw recently. I witnessed a GU three on the dyno recently. It had been fitted with an homemade frontmount setup. The thing made less power and torque post intercooler fitment. The loss was due to the amount of plumbing ...

Top mount intercoolers allow shorter piping from the turbo thru the intercooler and into the intake. Many people underestimate the importance of that fact.

CV's

Dreaming
