If so i think i did a good job since i already have the ECU flashed.
Yes they did and still do..good job



You mean YOU would check for perfect syncronized of both turbos to ensure that both Wgs opening at the same time ?
If so , i also would be sure of this but do you think that in case of one turbo were work just a little hardest that the other one ,this should cause damage ?
It is just another step to ensure there both on the money but most likely you will be close enough....

I'm pulling 1.1-1.2 bar with stock K24's all day long on a Softronic tune using California 91 craptane. Only other engine mod is exhaust. I hesistate to mess with the waste gates or the springs unless I can find better gas at the pump on a consistent basis.

cosworth is infamous around these parts
Today i tightened the actuators by 4 more full turns ..so now my actuators are tightened 8 cm more than with oem setup (driver side 20 cm vs stock 11.5 cm and passenger side 18.5 vs stock 10.5)
The car runs better and the boost increased to a solid 1.1 in 2nd 3rd and 4th gear and 1.2 in 5th and 6th gear... 1.1 - 1.2 is boost level i was looking for ,so i think i stay with this regulation and i'm very happy..
I go for bosh 710n diverters conversion soon , since my diverters are still stockish.
