I've been offered a Turbo Zet cheap and I wondered if anyone had any opinions?




Will this work with a fake dump valve and will it affect my flamer kit



I've been to the Turbo Zet website and it looks really good - I can't wait to fit it - I reckon on another 20bhp easily.

How would the 1/4 mile time of a 1.4 16v Corsa Sport with a Tubo Zet, air filter and Sebring exhaust (oval of course) compare with the 0-60 times of a 1.4 8v SRi with Kent cams and a drilled air box and panel filter (Green)??

U2U vibrio, I hear he uses one of these

It makes his Punto faster 60-90 in top gear than a porsche 911

Ah, so I'd have to uprate my alternator - is that what you're saying?

Bugger - this might be more work than I originally thought has no-one else fitted these???

No. It's an electronic turbo.

You're getting it confused with Smirnoff Mule.
