I've been following your updates on the Evolution Facebook page, such an awesome car!

Our engine specs are nearly identical, although mine is "just" running an 80 series @ 472hp. Good to know how much more my engine is capable of!
Cheers buddy. That's some going for an 80 series. I presume it's a hybrid 80 series?
Indeed, with an anti-surge housing too. I actually picked mine up from MG whilst yours was there - Icelle VI, reg ends UHU if you happened to see it?

Back from mine and the cars first ever trip to the ring and also returned to spa.

Didn't run the car at full power however performed fantastically well and didn't try to kill me which was nice

Looks great OP, though not something I would like to drive as a daily, far too laggy by the looks with nothing below 4k and then everything from there to 5k, I would prefer a more usable all rounder rather than that much HP, but it looks good and if you keep her up there in the rev range the thing is going to fly wink definitely old school turbo driving biggrin
How about this?
2.2 fully forged, stock Turbo with BB conversion 2.5 bar.

Will start a separate thread if anyone is interested. Don't want to spam the OP's lovely RS thread.

Sorry to continue off topic but is that whp on your graph? Your torque also seems to drop off a cliff too which is odd, especially for a stroker?
