i want to upgrade turbos, ive got a t70/t04 or something, it was rebuilt at a garret turbo place in sydney everyone i take it to says its a t04 i bought it being told it was a t70. anyways is it a bolt on change over or do i needa make a new exhaust from the turbo exhaust to the cat? will oil lines etc bolt straight up. and ive gone thru 3 CAS in 270kms why is it going thru so many?!

It depends what exhaust housing it has a t3 or t4 foot and yes you will need to make new dump pipe of turbo and is it internal gate or external gate

Change this bearing in the distributor. Could be filling each new CAS with red dust, could also be completely shagged, a dizzy that doesn't spin nice n smooth will cause all sorts of timing dramas.
