^^^what he said


It'll make great torque, turbos almost always do. My estimate at 400rwhp would be 450 lb/ft at the tire. Oh, we are going to test a new turbo from Borg-Warner that is supposed to be lightyears beyond any of the old Garrett/Switzer-based stuff as far as efficiency...we're expecting full spool will be reached at or before 3500 RPM. Should be sweet.

Sounds good, im sure this will be the last summer with the Vortech on my car. Im very curious to see what kind of power your car makes with low boost, Ill definitely go turbo(s) once I forge my bottom end.

Oh wow, I thought this thread got deleted, here's new pics. The entire hotside (all the hard stuff) is done, just waiting on the intercooler to get here (sigh...) and then it'll be completely done.
