Turbolicious, yes it's going, Yee-Har.

Well it's going, l picked the Brumby up this afternoon after having it wired to the computer and am happy to report it runs. Had to drive it 50 kms to get home and thoroughly enjoyed myself on the way. The new turbo motor is sweet as, mechanically quiet, no odd rattles and heaps of power, nothing li...

Does any one know if the brumbies came with overflow bottles in the first place? It has the hose hanging down but I can't see anywhere that a bottle would have gone. Robbo Robbo, l am on my 3rd Brumby now and none have ever had an overflow bottle, that's not to say they didn't have them, (just quie...

Bye- bye Dunnydore.

Well, the boss, (my wife), has finally decided to sell her Commodore and to my surprise, (read shock), has expressed an interest in getting back into a Subaru, an Outback to be exact. She's not concerned if it's to be new or used, but has asked me if there is a particular model she should look for, ...

Hi Stinky, won't go into it now as l haven't had time to figure it all out or test my theories but it consists of a 3" pipe and a turbo air filter in place of the airbox, not quite sure where l will position it yet, either thru the inner guard or down thru the engine bay, will have to wait till the ...

Can't confirm it without hearing it, but it could be, bearings can look allright and be totally stuffed when under load, all it takes is 1 little flat spot on a ball or discoloration of one ball in the race, rule of thumb is, if it's suspect, replace it, might save you alot more work later.

General thanks.

Just want to say that l am humbled by the people on this forum.
