Colin its cool, like many on here he likes to keep the spec quiet.

If he PM's you the spec you will see why.

There are many standard position turbo kits which you can source from the US which promise the earth, however WHP/BHP etc etc get kind of lost in translation as do the actual spec of the turbo and I know of a few guys in the UK who has been upset by buying a turbo for standard position which was not the spec they thought it would be.

The last I thought about this sort of thing was the MD321V, but the actual results depended on what you were running and how much boost you could SAFELY get away with. Same as any turbo really.

My advice would be to call Mark at lateral who sells them, or Speak to the Uncle Andrew down in Port Seaton who at the end of the day is the mecca of turbo knowledge.

The main problem with standard position is the turbo making contact with the intake manifold etc.

Thats not standard position though. GT30/40 requires rotated setup.

Best figures I have heard are from the MD321V.

If you were to go rotated they sky is the limit although I belive your next from may be the 2.5 block

IIRC 30/40 is basically a 35R innit?

The Full race setup is stock position... will even let you use the TMIC.
