have a mate ordering one at trade price and reassemble this weekend.

Need to replace the LSD center in a 03 GU Coil Cab. Will be the center only, the current crown wheel will be swapped.
I pressume a center from a 04 3l will be the same, ie axle spline..
Thanks

I run a custom spec turbo from Mark on my GU, very happy.
After using another turbo company on a 100 series and not being happy JPC sorted the vehicle out to what I wanted. From past experience you may spend a little more intialy but it can also save.

yes something exactly like that... did you do that your self or buy it??
any info would be great
Made them from scratch. You need some bending and turning, alright if you have contacts or mates in the trade but if not could be a hassle.
I have basic drawings if needed.

from what i've seen the GT2860rs with the .64 turbine housing will make boost from idle and you'll have 10PSI before 2000rpm. Seen a lot of threads mentioning this but yet to see any evidence. Does anyone have actual dyno charts showing boost in conjunction with rpm. Went down this path with a ...

The complete page is an impressive read.
Got to hand it to small-medium company's that spend so much time and money on R&D and presumably only gain small returns.

Really! Needless to say he is less than impressed, and would have to pay a reasonable amount to have them tested on a shock dyno on shocks less than 12 months old (at the time he raised the issue). IMHO i think he is being a bit pedantic, but he's the one who paid the money and should get what he ...

Ok cool, it sounds pretty good, JPC certaintly know their stuff when it comes to turbos and performance. It must be making around 130rwkw with smaller tyres on it? This is the sort of power I'm chasing, 150 + rwkw would be awesome but I can't justify the extra expense. At the end of the day I just ...

I fitted one to my GU and removed it after 2000 k's. After fitment it was professionally tuned and made good high power but low was worse than the standard turbo. In the end I spoke to Mark at JPC and he supplied a custom unit (at a very good price) and after tuning performs very well down low ...
