 Re: rupert
stock ca, albeit with new bearings now... new motor to go in being built now. specs for that to follow. T3/T4 hybrid, T04E with stage 5 T3 turbine (might be a touch large). 600cc siemens injectors. 4860 EMS computer. still running ca gearbox, (see how long that lasts). shortened r31 with lsd. 2ltr turbo front struts and brakes. pretty standard stuff except for the front end. i think the front is over kill, read too heavy. i bought it with most of this work already done. if i keep my 1200 sedan then i will be doing it different. there are many things to come on this beast. enter the zero bank balance

well here we go...new bearings and back on the dyno, then wouldn't you know add a bit of boost and bye bye bearings...think i may have real problems

it did make 226rwhp at 12psi and 7000rpm before we all heard the nasty noise again...

take three is the second motor to go in. stocker again with 85k on it. looked neat and sounded ok...

stay tuned for next weeks exciting instalment of rupert pays more money for no gain

 Re: rupert
nah it is a cheaper manifold but it is not monsta or what ever, xtreme or sumthing. it is pretty well made actually. i was surprised when i got it. i mate who owns a turbo repair business got it by mistake when he ordered a sr manifold. the company sent him a new one to fit but didn't ask for the ca manifold so i got it for nothing....wicked
