#413: Re: PG Tips - Waste of Money, Effort and Time - 206 1.4 8v Turbo Author: Addaz, Location: SuffolkPosted: Wed Apr 24, 2013 3:34 pm ---- Well my work load got a lot bigger and my pockets became empty, one fully balanced and lightened bottom end with a knife edged and reground crank to 0.30mm due to wear. Crank is sexy as though

#415: Re: PG Tips - Waste of Money, Effort and Time - 206 1.4 8v Turbo Author: PezHdi, Location: ShrewsburyPosted: Thu Apr 25, 2013 12:45 pm ---- How much was it to balance the bottom end and have the crank knife edged?
All looks really nice
Time to sort out my engine

It was on the mains not the big end, so its here nor there I did debate the fact whether it needed doing but they advised me it did. Yes the mains will take more strain but if I get a year out of this engine I will be happy. Thanks for the input though
#419: Re: PG Tips - Waste of Money, Effort and Time - 206 1.4 8v Turbo Author: Edward, Location: In the garagePosted: Fri Apr 26, 2013 12:03 pm ---- Is it really worth all the balancing and knife edging for a turbo engine? Its not going to be a screamer of an engine.
#420: Re: PG Tips - Waste of Money, Effort and Time - 206 1.4 8v Turbo Author: Addaz, Location: SuffolkPosted: Fri Apr 26, 2013 1:01 pm ---- Yes I know its not going to be a na screamer but I wanted to do as much as possible so I thought f*** it why not?
