Finished earlier this year. 200rwkw, light and extremely quick. GTX series turbo on a Twistmount means gate pressure <2000rpm, its insane.

Dann, that sounds awesome!
I'm surprised how much power it has, I mean that's 60rwkw more than my little 1.6
Built engine and what boost?
Could I get 180rwkw with similar mods?

Cheers!

Ps couldn't view the pic.

Stock BP. 98 pump fuel.

Like 13 or 14psi at the top end. I think it made like 272whp or something. Lots. You can make 250+rwhp on a stock 1.6L on pump 98 too just as easily but at higher pressure because the head doesnt flow as much so to get the same amount of air and fuel in you need more boost pressure. You cant just ram 20psi in from idle though its all in the setup and tuning.
