Was told to do so by Tubo supplies in Townsville . Seems to work okay . see photos one under each guard .

HIRO F6 Member 1,817 Member For: 16y 3m 25d Gender: Male Location: Brisbane, QLD Posted 05/01/10 10:39 PM Share Posted 05/01/10 10:39 PM If you cant get the car to Dave at Blueboost, dont think twice about taking it down to the Goldy and seeing Kent at Hi Torque. They have done so many 500rwkw plus turbo Fords in 2009 they must know what they are doing. Not many workshops in QLD have pumped out as many last year as they did. Proof is in the pudding!

From what I was aware the gt-k 850 comes standard with a .81 ex housing unless it was changed by john up here.
