It doesn't really shift no :lol: , only had a quick go in it though ( taking it easy with the new turbo :wink: ) & as 140's go it feels on the slow side of the scale but runs nicely, the correct elbow just before compressor housing should help things as there's a mismatch of 20% or more in differing flange sizes, I'm thinking turbulence.. ordered right part today also correct oil return pipe, again a fair difference in bore at flange.. once they are in I will then start proper testing & tinkering , measuring air flow & boost etc...

Yes they are the same fitment across all FWD and RWD, you will need the right ( longer ) U bolts though. Ford list 3 lengths I believe.

My 330 Rwd shocks are 150mm longer than the Sportvan Fwd shocks though so that'll need some thought. I'm shortening the lower axle mounting on mine to match that of a Fwd before I fit the 260 shox

Got my 3.73 fitted today , its 1000rpm lower at 70!

Also got my Viper480 fitted - check out the cute remote :) Image
