Very common over on Turbominis.

Difficult to arrange the usual loop at the back of the head back to the block on an A35 though.as there is so little room.

The guy calling himself sprocket in the second link is one of the most knowledgable guys on Turbominis.I bought the modified turbo pistons from him that are running in TMT.

Turbo-charging an A-Series definitely raises some significant issues. Not surprised that running decent boost pressure can be problematic... :whistle:

Swiftune dry deck normally aspirated racing A-series as well, apparently to overcome head gasket problems :!:

Good idea all my mini race engines have been dry decked as you dont get hot spots in the head that can lead to a failed head gasket
