no offense to CNK, but I'm not going to hold my breath and wait. The delta's problems have been well documented and discussed here and at NT.

I just don't understand the demand/appeal to TT.
Twin Turbo's is rather silly on a small V6. If you do the math, each turbo is only going to be fed by 1.3 liters. (engine is really 2656cc)

If folks wanted power, they would go to a single turbo. If you look into the cars that come TT from the factory, the "big" power kits all convert from TT to single turbo. I just don't understand the appeal/demand for a TT kit.

i think some people just like the say it sounds. "dude, i have a twin turbo tiburon" rolleyes.gif i think the logical attraction to it is that you'd have two small turbos that would spool much more quickly. i guess if you're running low boost, this might make sense, but then there's the added complication of the piping. i'm suprised cnk would opt for a tt setup, though. seems kinda counterintuitive to me. dunno

Heck, that's nuthin' unique to what country you're from. I'm not ashamed to say I've shamed a septic system or two in my day as well. lol

So far all I hear is bottom end, bottom end and more bottom end .... Where the weakness ACTUALLY is in the Delta's is in the HEAD..... the delta has serious overheating problems and blows engines based on heat issues..... Head gaskets, cracked heads due to thermal loads, valve guide issues, and finally sleeves crackng and dislodging themselves has also been seen, but these are SIMPLE problems to overcome!
Is this believable?
