There didn't look like there was much meat left between the pots on the 4.5 Dom, how did you squeeze another half out of the block?

Especially if its anything like the 4.3 and 4.5!!

Impressed with your developments Dom. Is this a stroked 4.5, guess it must be?

Sounds like fun. Envious.

Briefly, what are the advantages or differences of a turbo set up over sc in your book?

Are we going 80s style or smarter?

Supercharged is an easy avenue, everyone says you can't make turbos as reliable , smarter turbos are the way forward I feel.....

If you do put it in production I hope you will do a big discount for changing from 4.5 to 5.0 smile

I knew I should have waited frown

If you want to use my car as a test for a 4.5 Turbo you can have it from September to May. It will only be in storage anyway so let me know.

Will speak to you later when it's due mapping.
