How much power are you aiming for?

It might be the thin pipe is cracked. Its a pig to replace. Very difficulyt to get at. It driops oil on to the hot manifold and makes smoke. My mechanic made a new (colied) pipe and fitted it. Mind you, my turbos just started sounding like a fighter jet on take off...high pitched whistle.....?

Can I adjust the clutch on the S12. My garage says I can't. New clutch and labour estimate £360!

roughly 210/250 bhp @ flywheel at the moment but i would like to have a lag free turbo as i love the power to be earlier on the rev range

will this fit and is it any good on a s12 with std internals and ss zorst,air filter,fmic not forgetting better clutch etc

looking at the size of the housings, i'd say it would be to big,my t34 has smaller housings, mines a 58 and a 50, so on s12 managment i'd say to big mate.
