Back from my family holiday to find goodies awaiting
New turbos by Pulsar. They’re GTX2860 Gen 2 with a 0.64 AR. They’ll provide plenty of boost headroom at the top end and get the most out of my head/cam/valvetrain set up. I’ll no doubt lose some response, but the GT525’s used to build boost too fast resulting in issues with boost control and boost spiking in the midrange and they ran out of puff after 6,000 rpm where they were effectively choking the engine.
With these and my Haltech setup, I should be able to have progressive boost build early on but still a strong midrange and not have boost taper off at the top end, and not have to push them to the absolute limit to get the performance levels im after.

How much am I looking at to pay for a garage to do a complete engine swap??
Seen a couple of engines on ebay but they are like £1200, good prices or not??
Trying to decide whether to chuck a load of money at the car or cut my losses and sell as spares or repairs.
