these upgraded ceramic plates have been used in several cars running well over the 550kw mark.

only other clutch on the market is the mal wood option 6 twin plate, but its noisey and nowhere near the feel of the stand ap clutch.

the nizpro items for both the clutch and and driveshafts wont make it bulletproof, nothing ever is, but it should be a whole lot better than standard.

this is a dyno plot of a car running that turbo kit i was talking about.

at about 3500rpm it makes the same power of a standard car but between 4000 and 5500rpm it doubles the power. im trying not to justify all this but a little evil bastard inside my head says i should go for it, i dunno

seems "progressive" for a lack of a better word, doesn't appear to be that all or nothing that i thought, but boy, trying to control the car in that 1500rpm rev band must be hard!

Pete to get it to rev to 8gs would need a complete engine rebuild, cams etc.. big dollars as parts wouldnt be too easy to find..

forget what you think about building hi-po engines compared to our experiences with ej's, this is a whole different ballgame.

i can get pretty much the best engine combination built and in my car within two weeks and it costs a fraction of a subaru rebuild! parts are so cheap, even custom stuff that comes from the states!

not talking a childs pocket change here, but its far less than you think.

i wouldnt have the foggest what the costings would be, but if its far cheaper then i suggest u do it just for the piece of mind.. or wait til this one blows up??

standard internals (apart from the oil pump gears) are good for anything up to 400rwkw which by then the stand turbo starts to run out.

the rebuild option is really only there if either the standard one lets go or you are seriously thinking about going above the 400 mark with something like a bigger turbo/exhaust manifold.

pricing ranges from 3900 for forged internals to 5600 for built short motors all the way to 10k for fully built long motors capable of handling 1500hp.

rebuilding the engine in my opinion is only worthwhile if you go for more hp with this turbo kit, but then it turns into close to 20 grand for roughly 100rwkw's extra.

400rwkw and 20 grand in my pocket or 500rwkw and stained underwear

Why do you need 500 rwkw in your daily?

As much as im 100% for it, it kinda defies logic too
