How long have you been without the car Steve?

Marsdendean Will soon be back thou! Is your turbo limited to 240BHP steve, or can you go further once SPC have fully tested a few cars?

I'm hoping for over 240 bhp, though the top-end figure isn't what I'm most interested in (which is more about low-down performance, and it "feeling" fast without having to do huge revs).

I've already got the GTE internals and uprated injectors too.

The turbo itself is rated by Garrett at up to around 330 bhp (obviously this is a generic figure and depends on application etc).

Thanks Gord. Yeah they were aiming to have it over at Noble by the end of this week just gone, but that hasn't worked out. Simon was out for a few days at short notice so they were a man down. Young Steve keeps saying he will send his pics on Facebook but haven't had them yet.

Think they are aiming to get the car running for Monday and then take it over to a place to make the downpipe. I know Steve spent a lot (all ?) of Friday sorting out arrangements to get the downpipe made.

Fingers crossed that Noble can get their hands on it by the end of next week ! (for mapping)

Also, I have no doubt that they will get it all finished properly, and I'd rather wait for a good job than have it rushed.
