    Can't wait to see it painted! Did you get the front bumper sorted out?

    As a whole the car looks cool, but every time I look at the c-pillar it looks odd. I remember seeing a c-pillar mold that gave it the M3 look for sale somewhere...
    Reminiscing...

          its a variable vane turbo, basically a small turbo and a medium sized turbo put together, instant spool, without running out of breath up top.

          I have the 224 series which has just been rebuilt and refreshed.
          I should be seeing between 400 and 420 bhp according to all the conversations I have had with the guys at aerodyne.



          When this build is complete the car and all specs will be featured on their site.

          so you can check that out also.

          I will also be seeing 10psi before 2k rpms

                    Not sure on piping just yet, the intercooler is 24x12x3" because I have not decided if I want to go top mount or bottom mount, I have both manifolds, its all about mocking each one up at this point to decide which will be best.

                            Ya you just have to look real hard, and make sure that you have it rebuilt.

                            Also keep in mind they are only good for about 11 psi,
                            You can boost more if you drop your rev limit, which is what I have opted to do, reason being I want more torque down low, I spend more time with my cars at low revs than at 7200 rpm, so I'd rather have more PSI lower with less HP but higher torque where it counts than higher red line and HP up top.
