		Subject: Delta Integrale Sender's Name: Graham Newland Question: Could you let me know the price for supplying and fitting a hybrid turbo. Answer: I can supply a Hybrid turbo to your spec if required. Certianly a 360 degree thrust is a must, and I would suggest a cut back wheel in the turbine. I would be wary of over sizing the turbo to avoid lag. We can supply an actuator to suit your boost requirements, with some additional bleed off. The cost is around ?490 plus carr. and VAT.
		Subject: Orion 1600 Sender's Name: Steve Question: I have a G reg Orion 1600 CVH (non injection) automatic. Oils is coming up from the tube on the back of the rocker cover and into the air filter box. It is happening at such a rate that oil is pouring out of the spout of the air filter box and down the front of the engine. Also pouring into the Weber Carb and smoke is coming from exhaust. Answer: Have you cleaned out the breather inside the rocker box? These engines are subject to the "black death" - a build up of gunk inside the engine which blocks everything up - try poking around inside it. Also make sure you clean the breather on the other side, as well as the small bore pipe and fitting which fits in the inlet manifold.
		Subject: Renault clio 16v Sender's Name: Paul Real Cabo Question: have just bought one and the clutch seems slightly heavy is this normal?. Also the dials have been disconnectred and the temp gauge is not working would this be expensive to fix? Answer: To be honest the weight of a clutch pedal is a bit subjective. Its hard for me to say what is normal. You will need an auto electrician to fix the dials - however I would wonder why the disconnection?
		Subject: Delta Integrale Sender's Name: Graham Newland Question: I have a Delta Intergrale which has a bad smoking problem when you let off the throttle. I have had the head checked out and it is all ok as are the ring and bores. The only thing I can think of is the turbo. I have been running it on a three stage boost which goes up to 27psi on full. Could you please help em with any ideas. Answer: It sounds very much like a duff Turbo, sucking up oil on the overrun. 27 psi is very high boost for a standard turbo. I can only recommend that you replace it with a hybrid. As you probably know, Turbo Technics were the originators of the hybrid system, and are still the best bet for a turbo of the correct spec. If you need any further gen on it, let me know. As a Turbo Technics dealer I can supply a turbo....with discount!
		Subject: Turbo Kit for Hyundai Coupe Sender's Name: Greg Curtis Question: Please could you let me know if you produce any Turbo kits that would be suitable for a 1999 Hyundai Coupe (F2 evolution). If you do please let mw know rough costs (including fitting if you can do it) and approximate performance. Answer: Sorry but I know of no kit suitable for this application. The cost of carrying out a one off conversion is usually prohibitive (?5 - 6000).
