We call that "Jan" style my friend. He's a member of this board and his turbo setup is in the projects off the main page.

Yeah, i saw his car locally, he got a few good passes on it though, i was impressed the little z6 held up that long, just tells you what they can handle. He told me he bumped it up to 20 psi for shits when he blew it, but i think he did it on 16.5.

It lasted many races, but I remember him saying that the reason it blew was because of a coolant problem in the head and it caused the sleeves to worp (warp?sp?) or something... either way, it absolutly EXPLODED... I saved his pics he took of it, ouch.

yep, thats what he told me, it dynoed almost 300 hp, not quite, but it was pretty damn impressive.

I thought he said the head gasket was blown and it hydralocked?

To clear some ---- up, he DID make 300whp(302 to be exact)and the reason it blew was because he overheated before the race(which possibly warped the head and maybe weakened the head gasket?)and during his run he accidentally turned the boost controller up too far(hitting 20+psi) while the head decided it was going to try to run away from the situation, causing coolant to rush into the cylinders which kicked the pistons and rods asses.

You guys can help him rebuild it by buying his ---- in the for sale section:
