    Have used 0.5 on my car for 3+ yrs. With the head skimmed to clean it up and 8.35mm lift cams, the motor is now interfernce (bigport motor).
    Not a major issue you just need to be awear of it and change timing belt which are that cheap it's a no brainer.

    It is now handling turbo no issue as well.
