Yep, factory turbo means not touched, no bigger comp cover, no wastegate porting and flapper mods etc etc.

So in a stock turbo class, would you expect a stock turbo FG F6 to be up against a stock turbo FG XR6 or would then XR be allowed to run up to a GT35/40?

Would you run them as separate classes?

Also, how would you check at scruteneering if a turbo has been ported and flapper mod done?

You cant , but you can tell if it has a bigger comp cover and wheel.

That's why I think it's best to judge "stock" as being the manifold and allowing any turbo that fits the manifold. Otherwise it becomes far too difficult to police.

I don't think running a .7 front housing is a big improvement from the .5, and porting and flapper mod I thought was more to help control boost. A standard turbo with no mods on a factory mounted custom manifold would see greater improvements in power then a bigger front housing will.

This whole thread seems pretty academic to me, a 10 sec car is hardly factory so who cares which bits someone changes to get to that point

It's not about whether the car is stock or not. It's how far you can push the factory turbo.

Lets play another game.

What is the quickest XR on a stock fuel pump without surge tank.
