How easy is it to rotate the compressor housing? Do you need to make a new bracket to locate the wastegate actuator?

Not sure exactly what needs to be done striped...i'll let you know when i get to it..maybe NoMoreMinis can help?

hehe..i'm aiming for 200HP atw...looks like you have the same turbo by your sig? how much boost were you running to get 161.1atw?

For rotating....see http://www.austarletclub.com/forums/ind ... topic=1802

I'm running 16psi to get 161hp atw......although i'm not really happy with the tune.....other people in the club have got more power with the same boost.....
My engine is actually the higher compression 4efe, not the 4efte.....which is supposed to give better off-boost response. I'm still using the standard 4efe throttle body and inlet manifold though, which i'm guessing is a restriction in the line.
I have a 4efte throttle body (4mm bigger) and inlet manifold (shorter runners) that i'm polishing at the moment. They should be fitted in the next few weeks, then i'll get a better tune ;)

will you be mounting it over the gearbox? What intercooler will u be using?

Cool, It's going to be mounted in the stock position in front of the motor, intercooler will be a PWR water to air barrel.
