Wont be fitted for a while paul. I got it from works auto who was selling it for one of their customers, who they dont have a phone number for. No-one could really tell me the full story behind the turbo, simon could only tell me the guy who had it last got it off a rx7 and was going to put it on his rb20det but decided it to be too big and laggy for it. Apparently its been rebuilt recently, the only things worrying me is if its naffed (ie: needs another rebuild) and the A/R so I can find out if its going to be a lag monster. From what simon says he reckons 3500-3800 full spool up. Its going to grant on sunday/monday for him to look at and tell me what he can and also how much to fit it to the std manifold+oil lines+ext wastegate. I might get it put on sooner depending on all up costs. It was far too good a price to let it go and considering a mate of mine with a r32 wants my std turbo the change-over cost is amazing.

    • I mean I agree. I've seemingly never had issues and I have RS4's in the rain, but I drive pretty slow in the rain, and I commute around on the street and pretty much never push it. But it's not like you're going to uncontrollably slide off the street with them in the rain. At least here in Aus. And I say this before I drive to Tassie in Winter. AS above, the term "Semi" is a bit of a misnomer. The ContiSportContact7 is also a "Semi" or a "UHP" tyre. It's the same category as an AD09 in any case.
    • These are not semis. None of the tyres in that comparo are semis. They are UHP tyres. Perfectly streetable. I'm on my second set of AD09, after using a couple of sets of AD08R. On the street. Every day. I get 15-20 thousand km out of them, which is perfectly acceptable. They are a really nice tyre to drive on. I have few, if any, complaints.
    • You'd hope, if it came from ACS, that it wouldn't be that.
    • Or the brand new throwout may be unhappy...
    • Thanks for the linkie. Certainly always a great deal of help when people post comparisons like these, but I think for now I'll stay away from any semi slicks. I did go ahead and order the sportcontact 7. My buddy has them on his modified A4 and he keeps saying how good they are. For my intended purposes these will probably work real well. I'll report on them once I had the chance to try them out
