making 300 0r 320@wheels then spinning tyres think 1.3bar at 5.8k, limited to 6k at moment. but need get some decent tyres and then back for mapping, same turbo my mates got the lad he bought it off had identical one on his yb powered mini running 1.7bar and then 2.0bar! so see how it does next time it goes for more, engine should be good to 8k all day, just see if makes power to it or not

not that mental(seeing as yours is 500+ isnt it now?), seems to drill everything round here lol. if can get close to 450 ish then ill be happy. after that maybe get mate to look into making a swedish style inlet and maybe a gt series turbo(im not too clued up tubo wise), i prefer n/a, i just build the long motors and headwork mainly
