And, what do you want a TS1 to do that your existing one doesn't?
Just a box standard SIL 200, pretty slow and seized a few times now :cry: would like something with a little more uummpphh and TS1's have been around for a long time and seem pretty tried and tested :)
I am currently running a cleaned up stage 4 , 30mm delly and JL3....it will sit at 65-70 (gps and fat git) all day long, tank to tank, slightly over jetted main jet using a egt the temps remain constant at wot....my TS1 nolonger gets a look in!

Next project, could be to rip off edens engine spec.....but dont tell him :baddevil: :bigsm:

Thats easy to do. Getting it nice and cool at 1/4 to 1/2 throttle at higher revs is the hard bit ;)
