Where can i get a decomp plate from and how much will this be? I presume i will need a new cam belt with taking the head off?

Depends when yours was last changed. Tangoedvtsturbo has used two head gaskets on his.

jsdvtr 8th October 2009 11:32
Well the cars just turned 50k.

if your removing the head you always put a new cambelt on, bit of bad advice there mate, the belt will always be stretched when its been on the car, only time i wouldnt change it is if its only been on less then a week but ideally you should bre putting a new one on

Stretching cam belts????? That's a new one!!

jsdvtr 8th October 2009 13:16
Say if near the time i will be fitting the turbo kit can i get a new gasket, decomp plate and cambelt done which i will get done by a garage so its got it shown on service history and i wont be a ble to do it. Will it be ok to still run the car with the decomp on, etc even if turbo not yet fitted or should i get the turbo up and running then take to a garage to get all those done.

Yeah i no i found this one ebay before and put up a thread about it and blackie_2k5 said he knew the guy that makes them and that they are good. I could link you to the thread page if you want so you can have a read?

blackie_2k5 9th October 2009 16:23
point to make is these need a slight bit of dressing where the bore holes have been prssed out, but in comparisin with dp engineering and ferriday etc are good value for money

blackie_2k5 9th October 2009 17:28

thanks for this information. when i get this done would you be able to give me more information on the parts that need dressing?

jsdvtr 12th October 2009 10:02
Where can i get the hoses for the feed and refurn for turbo? Im struggling to get a mani, how hard is it to get a stardard one and get the adapter and get it welded on?

Mathias 12th October 2009 10:08
oil feed and return you mean? or water?

jsdvtr 12th October 2009 10:11
Well the oil feed and return that goes from turbo to sump, etc. Im just looking at where to get all the little bits like that i need to get. As i know the likes of cituning do braided one in there kit.

jsdvtr 12th October 2009 10:31
Im struggling also on boost pipes to go to intercooler and trottle body. I want one to fit my 5th injector and bar map sensor in.

Mathias 12th October 2009 10:56
boost pipes: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/2-SILICONE-TUR...d=p3286.c0.m14

these will obviously need to be cut and rewelded where necessary

elbow: http://www.gmcmotorsport.co.uk/index...roducts_id=208

for oil feed, there are braided kits on ebay, they are from abroad so may be a wait but pretty cheap :)

Also you after an intercooler? I have a gmc one for sale - bargain price too!

jsdvtr 12th October 2009 11:33
Well i coupd fit the injector in the elbow couldnt i? Where about would map sensor go? I would buy thel intercooler but after selling nos bottle as dont want run nitrous now, would prefer money to go toward turbo setup. Would that intercooler not be too big for lw boost?

Mathias 12th October 2009 11:42
Yes mate, injector would fit in the elbow, you can see where it fits in the picture.
The intercooler wouldnt be too big, it would keep the inlet temps nice and low which would help massively

jsdvtr 12th October 2009 12:57
If i can get rid of the bottle then might be interested. All ive got so far is mf2, injector, 2 bar map sensor and sigcon.

Mathias 12th October 2009 12:58
okay matey, let me know, may not be here that long

swampy 12th October 2009 19:31
If you can supply lengths and end union thread sizes i can supply the braided lines

blackie_2k5 12th October 2009 19:43
what sort of prices you charge?

swampy 12th October 2009 20:05
With out an exect spec its hard to say
id say around £20 deliverd

blackie_2k5 12th October 2009 20:09
per hose? was going to edit as i aint got my turbo yet so not sure on size and fitting as of yet but will be in touch when i do, what qaulity are they?

swampy 12th October 2009 20:13
Yes per hose.
Got a link to the ebay ones?
Motorsport quality, very good same as the brake line kits i supply.
Can do a full internal bias valvd kit no problems

blackie_2k5 12th October 2009 20:15
will be in touch when ive sorted the turbo out mate :)

Mathias 13th October 2009 10:07
Cant see why not mate, you'll need to ring and ask for diameter of the elbow to see if it matches for the vts tb?

jsdvtr 13th October 2009 10:11
Well its just i was going to vts the car and gave up then going to turbo the vtr but would like the extra power and was only going to get a standard mani so not spending alot on a mani so in the future can turbo the vts without losing loads on a good manifold,etc. But if i find a good vts engine by time got all the parts i will fit that then turbo that as got all bits for a vts engine, just not the engine lol. You dont fancing a swap for nitrous bottle +cash for intercooler lol?
