Blown a gasket

[Wyn]

Luckily not the main one !
But yes me RB25 manifold to turbo gasket gave up after some light (cough) road use

(cheap tat)

Can't think why

Still at least it wasn't the manifold that was cracked as I initially assumed was the fault
Save the new one for another day

Glad I took it apart now as its all fixed ready for another play

I'm guessing yours was easier to replace than mine?

Are you coming to north Weald next Sunday?

Is that what was up with yours ?
Small world lol

Yep was simple enough as I only have the one turblower unlike yours
tbh I thought me manifold was cracked so brought another 6 branch obx manifold
Had full intention of pulling it apart today n fitting the new manifold n Holset, but bottled it when I saw just the gasket had gone lol
Maybe next time

Could do, what's the score there ? rwyb ?

Yes, it was just the gasket but was nearly a full day stripping and reassembly.

It's just a rwyb day and I think there's a few going. Get there early to sign on.
