This may change going to 265 R-comps but the benefit of this turbo is the boost response. Should cut full boost 1.8 bar around 3-500rpm from 4500 to around 4000rpm. so will give a huge full boost powerband of 4000-8500rpm. This should make it easier to drive as the boost wont hit so hard. So should make for a very quick track car with a heap of top end.

Well this is the theory anyway, time will tell how it pans out.

Well played Tino! The car is looking sick!

For those that only know Tino from reading his thread and think he does this stuff to impress others you couldnt be more wrong. There are some real knobs on this forum who flame people for doing mods that are different or crazy because of the expence. To those people I think they should grow up and go away.

Here are a couple more pics of the wheels on the machine. They came up so great! Cant wait to see them all painted up! Thanks for letting me machine your super exxy wheels mate. Your trust is nice!

Engine bay looks very nice but why are you still using a stock pitch mount?

Love the work on the wheels and engine bay mate. Are you selling off your other rims?

I know you get a lot of (ooops.. sorry I mean alot) of questions but here's one I've always wanted to ask: are you going to – and if not why not – wind down the boost to around 350hp ATW and work your way up, so you can get a better feel of the way the car handles?
