ye, but you get more out now with the larger turbine housing, so you'll be fine.

Yep there are a number of thing done to my motor that have improved flow, The Turbo is just one of them.
But I must thank Hennie for all is input and help with that Motor of mine.
Also the Ca18det head will flow to over 300 hp with stock cams

Gary...if I put in the Ca18 cam, should I change timing or anything?

No the timing stays the same but you wll need to get it tuned again.

Well since I have fitted mine the car really pulls after 4000rpm, before then it is quite flat, dont really know why. I am hoping the boost controller will sort the flatness out.

I think it is a bit flatter than before, hard to say because I am comparing it to how it goes after 4000rpm. I also havent tuned the timing map yet, so there are still some gains to be made.
It when a lot better than my first time. This one had a proper fan so I could at least get up to the site and make the change without the worry of overheating at 2000rpm. Dont get me wrong I have a shit load to learn still but I think I will get there.
