my motors in, but not running. im in the middle of making my plenum and turbo manifold now.

my brother has done the 2.6 conversion aswell. his car has no problem lighting 2nd with 17's on 5psi. should go alot harder soon, he found three holes in the plenum where it was leaking boost. hoping for around 250hp with the small to3.

"whats it like on fuel wif the t03?"

dunno its not tuned yet, used $40 of fuel only traveled 100km. should get about 350-400km out of a tank when its tuned.

"easy to maintain or average?"

seems easy. tappets are a mission to get right with the 2.6
