Love the braided lines and catch can. Looks real good. Certainly motivated me to get some bling under the bonnet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

01txr Member 861 Member For: 17y 4m 8d Gender: Male Location: QLD Posted 23/05/09 07:16 AM Share Posted 23/05/09 07:16 AM What size turbo is that?Turbo is garrett TO4z With .7 front and .96 rearGate is Turbosmart Progate 50 new compact series stealth.Should get atleast 200rwkw. LOL maybe at under 2000rpm.Its not going to be to series at present as still running the good old faithfulBA Mk1 engine.Will just use the 7psi spring that comes with gate and tune it around the same psi.Should make reasonal power, and may up it to 10-12psi for track days.Once I can afford to finish my engine build then I will be chasing bigger numbers.Will need decent drive shafts as well.Have all the rest of the gear to make the numbers I will be chasing.Plan is to make it as driveable as possibble, and try to improve cruise fuel eccom.But have more go than the average joe when needed.Will look into using a eboost as well to help with traction in the lower gears.Hay Ben, my car may go slower now as I have a .7 front as well. LOL little jokefrom our last time out at the track. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
