well wastegate chatter I have yet to hear on a road car. compressor surge yes all the time. Not to clever for the turbo mind.

1.6, much better option.

Although tbh the 1.2 16V engine is actually rather good, if it gets ported well etc then its very good.


who would do the head port and polish?

yes I do it but only if you send me a removed/spare head as at the moment I am not into stripping heads off due to weather manily tbh and its hassle I don;t need.

I can port it though.
