Hey guys,

I need some more power, the car previously had 730 bhp and i have got very use to it and now needing more.

Dropped the car back in the safe hands of Lee at SRD sunday for a few updates, swapping things about a bit.









New plans for the car is a low 10 or maybe even a 9 second 1/4 and a 200+mph standing mile.

Few weeks ago i did a 190mph standing mile and its given me the bug to go for more.

New engine and 76mm turbo going in along with a few other mods, the stock engine lasted me well but i now want more power and a lot more revs, planning on setting the rev limit to around 8500rpm.

Spec for the new engine.

Powerhouse Racing Performance Head
Built from a brand new OEM head
Supertech Valves, Intake and Exhaust
Supertech Valve Guides
Supertech Valve Locks
Supertech Valve Seals
Supertech Titanium Retainers
Supertech Single Valve Springs
Shimless Buckets
GSC Stage 1 Cams
CP Pistons
Brian Crower Pro Series rods
ACL race bearings
ARP Head Studs
ARP Main Studs
Titan Motorsports Adjustable Cam Pulleys
TTC Performance Billet Aluminum Upper Shock Arm
TTC Performance Idler Pulley
TTC Performance Water Pump Pully Cover
Unorthodox Racing Lightened Pulley Set
Billet Timing Belt Tensioner Bracket
Titan Motorsports Dampend Crank Pulley
TRD Engine Mounts
TRD Gearbox Mounts




















Regarding clutch ive gone with a new style Billet RPS carbon carbon twin plate, these are said to hold a 1000rwhp with ease, it looks a work of art.













New Turbo is a bit of a mouthfull.. PTB655-7675 B - CEA 76 HPS, ported H cover, T4 .81, dual ceramic BB. its basically a billet 76mm turbo on a .81 ar, this is one of the brand new precision dbb turbos that are air/oil cooled not water/oil cooled like most dbb turbos.












Whifbitz is building me a 4" twin box system to quieten it down a bit for 90% of the time, im also having a 5" straight through system built to my own spec by a local company for when i want to make some serious noise, i will update this post with pictures in a few days.



Im giving the interior a make over aswell,gone is the bucket seats, im going back to a bit more of a sleeper look, I have sent over to jurgen some facelift seats which are luckily non elecric so very light and my back seats for him to retrim, ive seen a lot of his work now and it looks stunning so looking forward to getting them back, i will update this post with some pictures in a couple of days.

I can see why a mere 730bhp would be insufficient hehe

Good man thumbup Can't wait to see the results. Have enjoyed many of your vids on youtube.

Nah, stock engine wont take the high revs i need with the bigger turbo, rather keep it in one bit so i can rebuild it and keep as a spare.

How does an air cooled turbo work then? I can only presume you mean it has its own oil system and oil cooler?

Dbb turbos are oil and water cooled until recently, now precision are building dbb turbos that are oil and air cooled, center cartridge has cooling fins on it.
