When I took the gearbox off
just tried it, reving it to about 6k in nautral with the clutch engauged and my ear on the centre console! Same wurr of the gearbox spinning, just gets faster, not grinding or vibrating. I put another jub clip and the prop shaft in the same orientation as the other one and its made it worse (first one reduced vibrations). I'm going to try moving it up the shaft to the other side of the first one. Something tells me this may take some time and might not ever get it right!

When I took the gearbox off
Ok im a little worried now thing is i cant ask the garage that did the clutch as i never paid them! They screwed up a few other things as well. I kept going back to pay the bill and they said it wasnt done yet. so i said ok post it me you have my address and that was in july - nothing! I do remember him saying somthing about a bush on the clutch that he couldnt get out or put back in or was knackered or something? I do remember him saying he packed it with grease so it should be ok. Thing is i have my vibration since moving to a single piece prop and i have also noticed that netrual seems to be dragging a bit. Tonight when sitting in the car with the clutch disengauged it idles weill and is silent. With the clutch engauged in netraul you can hear the gearbox spinning and the idle is slightly lower. Vaccum on my boost controller goes from 99 to about 96. Seems to be dragged a bit. This is intermittant, only about 30% of the time, doesnt matter if its warmed up or cold. Also when driving sometimes the clutch is lighter than other times, can be stiff for one press, then light again. If you put your foot on it and take up the slack you feel your foot drop a bit as the hydrolics kick in a second or so after you take up the slack? what you rekon?

BHP and Torque?!?
Also have to think about weight. Your car might be very powerful and put loads of torque on the rolling road but if it weighs 5 tonnes its not going to accelerate very fast is it? Or do they put resistance on the rolling road to simulate the cars weight? Or am i talking rubbish? example - diesels have loads of torque so they can pull heavy loads. But they dont accerate very quickly?

BHP and Torque?!?
aint bhp "break horse power", like how much the engine slows the car when you take your foot off the gas in gear? Or is that just down to how much compression your getting out of the engine?

Not going to get involved in this but surely if the turbo has a good water feed it will run cooler and therefore bearings etc will last longer?
