man you REALLY cleaned that thing up! nice build!

Spriggan 09-25-2009 02:22 PM

thanks man, got an extra a6 block, rebuilt a6 head and some TT rods, waiting on 75.5 vitara pistons. after that ill turn it up to 18lbs and see if the turbo can hold it till redline. was also thinking of 3 inch exhaust out the passenger side of the hood.

anyone have experience with these turbos? wondering how much psi i can up it to before its blowing hot air. hopefully looking for 250/260 before an upgrade.

i wouldnt do the exhaust out the hood. just keep it clean and simple bro! thats a sleeper right there.
