Now thats the right idea[(#)]

Should trap a decent mph, 110-115.

Got any vids so we can hear the motor??



Would be mad to see 115-118mph with this turbo....Just need to get to the dyno and see if there is more to be gained. I think the turbo will give up if pushed much more, it is running out of its efficiency and mass flow capabilities. I'd like some life out of it[:I]
No vids to post[:0]

Something to compare before you do the dyno?
before this engine/turbo dies[:p]

The engine won't give up. The turbo may though, takes a hell of a lot more than that to kill a cosworth motor.
I think Mark needs to enjoy his car a little longer, before he goes out and rapes it on the drag strip. It cost a crap load of time and money to get the car to this stage. You too would want to enjoy your car for a while and actually drive it for a change.[:0]

Look out for Fast Fours magazine in the near future. Apparently there will be an RS2000 somewhere on the pages[;^)]
