What were it's numbers Mike?

j9fd3s 09-22-2002 08:31 PM
we played with it today and found some more power. it only put down 208rwhp, thats what your t2 should do dan. we also found the throttles weren't open all the way....

it did have 11.7-12:1 afr from 3500-6500rpms

Would the torque be roughly about a third higher than a 13b?

For some reason my motor had the 87-88 rear plate. I don't know why it did, but now it has the 89 plate. That won't crack unless I run 30+ PSI all of the time. Those aluminum RB housings are a waste of money, unless you're going all out race.

You drill a hole in the center for a bolt to go through.

Yeah, my friend has had them for a while now. They've held up to 30 PSI with my T-78 so far.
