Re: wheel bearing change

just pull the shaft out angle grind half way though the metal ring holding the bearing and then just press it out with a hydraulic press. then put new bearing in press it back in with new ring.

Re: Recommended Turbo for Astron II 2.6L?

just go big turbo and high compression like about 12. so you'll have big boost with not as much lag. if your worried about head blowing just cut a ring in the head and block and put a round ring in about 3 mm thick for each piston. you'll be sweet

Re: wastegate

blow through means the air blows thorugh the from the turbo to the carby. so there would be no air/fuel mixture. only air. u guys are talking about draw through.
