I have totally rebuilt the motor.The only things std in it now are the rods, crank and main bearings.

HKS valve springs
Yes, it has std crank and std rods but apart from that everything has been changed so its not that std.![]()
As i said, i never expected that power.If i had i would have gone eagle rods.
But i still would retain the std crank.

As for the turbo, Tim i never really inspected it closely before i fitted it for markings so its really difficult to tell although i cant feel anything under it.
Also the TO4S hks turbo never had the bullet shaped nut(unlike the to4r
& t51)
Like Tim said, the impeller blades are fooking huge and the exhaust outlet is a good 10cm with the blades filling the hole a treat.
What ever this turbo is, it means serious business.At 1.7 bar this beast is only just getting going.
And as Rob said, to make 400
@ 1.4 bar and then 500
@ 1.7 bar that shows the volume of air this thing is flowing.
I do have plans to get the block sleeved, bigger valves, eagle rods and an RMR over christmas then i can got for something like 2 bar and see what it will give..

Rob told me before i left that the map was a safe one..
.
quite rich with little ign so if he ran it a bit closer to the wire we could have squeezed more without raising the boost but i would rather keep it safe for the sake of 30 or so horsepower!
Any how, when i get back from brands ill post up pics of the graph and the final setup.![]()
And when the turbo goes off to be altered to stop compressor surge ill get turbo dynamics to measure up and tell me the capabilities of the beast.
Thanks,
Nathan
