79 engine performance up grades

Post by bmsa »

G'day Guys

I'm looking for good places on the web to research engine performance upgrades on 79 turbos. I've pushed standard ones around bush for years and have been really happy but getting one for private use I'm thinking of getting a little more out of it.
Cheers

Ben

Ifg you do your exhurst & intercooler you will definantly need a chip to match the performance
The advantage of the DP Chip is it can be programed further & it is already adjustable
