Its still getting some minor bugs worked out. Buy my friend and I swaped the turbo for a larger one. Hot side is a .96 and intake is a .70. The thing spools hard a F*ck

man his car pulls much harder at the same boost (.5 bar ). Hell even the one you bought from him pulls ok.. Is that little sputter gone at 6000rpm? I had to do a little adjusting to the blowoff valve

LOL silly piping, looks like my arm when I sprained my wrist....





Get some nice bling bling over that sling sling...:P



Nice car, what's a good estimate of RWHP on that? At what RPM does it start/full spool at?

Phoenix the power even with that large turbo comes on at like 3k rpm and pulls to 7500 ( well thats what I took it to) . its set at only .5 on a 1.7 bar max eff.. So the power potential is not even touched or tuned yet..(I have no exp with apex pfc.) I have a friend whos car puts down about 320-330 whp..(well enough to walk away from a 2000 cobra on freeway) he pushes 18 psi on a 20g..This FD pulls at .5 bar almost as hard on a roll as my frineds does at 18 psi.
