:shock: That engine bay is pretty wild! I bet with the twin turbo's it would come on boost rather fast?

It's got a pretty impressive time for such a low boost setup. I would be looking at fitting as big of a trans cooler you could fit & crank the boost up to 10psi, maybe more............. Should give even more impressive results.

I so badly wanna turbo my EB, but i really should finish my two other projects that will both have turbos.

Cheers

Had some problems with the auto during the week with it jumping out of 2nd under load but rang the tranny shop and he reckon it was just band adjustment,so took it there thursday and its alot better but still flairs between gears with the throttle open.

Been talking with my panel beater about painting it and im in 2 minds if to go all out on it or just straighten it up,new paint and leave it a sleeper,might have to flip a coin on this one.

Im trying to get it tuned this week for the dyno day but still not sure on how much boost to put in it.The only limit i have is the turbos as if there r32 items the wheels are ceramic coated and it flakes off above 13psi from what i have been told but i think there r33 items i hope.

Hehe Phil, the ultimate stealth machine you have there. Sounds like a jet too when you passed by me today :)

This car is seriously quick people. Effortless neverending loads of TORQUE!! I have now well and truely been inspired to find some torque for my wagon and I now have the answer.

Thanks for the spin Phil. You have a deceptive beast.
