Chrish Report post Posted September 10, 2015 Trigger, rear end is all plated up. Also ripped the mount out of the front subframe so that's beefed up too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Scottfreee3 Report post Posted September 10, 2015 Out of interest what sort of turbo pressure are you running? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dooge Report post Posted September 10, 2015 Sounds awesome Chris, why haven't I seen more of this project?? And to make it useable as a daily as well as a track weapon is epic Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scottfreee3 Report post Posted September 10, 2015 Oh never mind, found it. 2.5bar for anyone interested. What I find interesting is your air filter. I did some testing and found I can hold turbo pressure for longer without the cover over the std air filter. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chrish Report post Posted September 10, 2015 It's a good all round car, tried to keep it that way Currently building manifolds for my twin turbo setup (not 35d) using two 250bhp capable turbos. So I'm looking forward to seeing how it turns out. My goals are high 450+ bhp on turbos alone, no nos. 3 momo, Kermitthefrog and dooge reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
