I'm a little confused by that turbo setup. No wastegate to bypass exhasut gas, instead boost is controlled by venting already compressed air. The turbine is allowed to spin as fast as it wants, perhaps even out of its efficency range. How can this possibly be more effecient than a wastegate setup?

just about every car mag (online and print) has had some form of 'creative' fact reproduction. ranging from a slight dodging of the facts to out and out guessing and bullshit. i guess in this country it is seen as acceptable to print utter garbage and have the readers pay for it. when they mess up not only the components and who did the work right through to the owners name and the power figure achieved they are taking advantage of their customers to the nth degree. i only bought the first issue of speed magazine - that was enough. as a matter of fact, ive only bought the 1st issues of a couple of local mags and been completely dissapointed. it's a sad thing for the industry but more so for the people that advertise in them. they get associated with a bunch of backward ****s with a computer and a job at a publishing co.

jeez mags shit me.

Hrmmm - Looks like our friend Greg Brindley has struck again...

Turns out that it wasn't even written by the Autospeed staff... It was written by a freelance writer... A mate of mine had his car reviewed on A/S by the same guy (Greg), and said he's no good...

I had Julian and Michael do mine, and they were pretty much on the money as to what I'd done etc...

Autospeed has gotten real shit especially since they dont have any free artivles anymore.

They sound like a bunch of tossers aswell.
