Awesome looking setup Danny.. Are we still talking standard BA little rod engine? If so that's even better as you have had it with alot of power for some time now. Have you leak tested your engine to see how its coping with all the punishment? Good work mate,should be an animal with a strong motor.

Yep. Its still the same engine as per that came with the car. I haven't done a comp test, but she still purrs at idle, and runs without a beat, without producing much blowby/oiling the inlet via the PCV setup. Keep in mind, my cars only done 68,000k's.. So its not exactly a High K BA.

The reason why I ain't pushing this motor no more is because I'm near completion of rebuilding a engine that let go. And the cost of replacing the broken parts I feel is prob something I should avoid :D

But in saying that, the bigger turbo does produce less torque lower in the rev range, so its actually a bit of relief for the engine now.

In the next couple of weeks, I'll be uploading pictures of my engine rebuild, and engine install.

Looking serious mate, glad to see you got the wastegate altered, wicked manifold but that angle was too much.

Manifold & wastegate play a huge role in the end result, in regards to drive-ability with the bigger turbos, and the suprising thing is that with some trial and error in set-up, and some very switched on tuning, the big turbos can perform down low.

Be great to see how it reacts on the street with tuning.
