[lil-robo]

will the stock engine take 400bhp, 420, 450 bhp

if mapped right

better off talking to b6lee but id say its 380ish

but for that u will need a 3port boost solenoid or boost controller also a re-map induction kit and walbro pump

if your looking at more u will need cams cam pulleys and possible turbo change not sure tho but defo cams will need changing 272`s or something like that

I think 400 would be on the edge of reliability. I know some people have gone over (not by much),even on the earlier models and never had an issue, but then again, some people do have problems.

Personally, I think 400 would be my limit, but I have a feeling every time I wanted to push it a bit, I would be waiting for a major failure.

Are you thinking of pushing up to that power on a standard engine?

 

[lil-robo]

just wondering really, going to forge it in a few months just wondering what i can do power wise at the min

Stock engine would take 380 to 400 depending on state of tune however you would be struggling to make the higher figure with a standard 8 turbo

 

[lil-robo]

its got a s205 turbo on it

 

[Nickygixer-k5]

I wouldn't push it past 380 for now just to be on the safe side at least not until you get it forged

 

[lil-robo]

true true, i will get the mapper to keep the boost low until high rpm

 

[gooner8]

400 with cam`s and that tub! i thought 400 was safe for an 8?

 

[Nickygixer-k5]

It probably would take 400 but there is no point maxxing it out with a chance of throwing a rod when he is forging in a few months. Will save the cost on a block and possibly head for the sake of a few months

 

[gooner8]

better safe than sorry getting 8 rod`s and piston`s in mine,looking at 370ish so nice to no it should be safe

That isn't possible and who bolted that turbo to a standard engine :shock::shock::shock::wtf::wtf:

I'd run that turbo a about 1:20 bar boost cos if you turn it up the your engine will shit itself. That turbo is good for 500bhp which is a whole lot more that your engine can take

 

[sponners]

you can up the boost as the revs rise which would help keep the torque down but I wouldn't bother running that turbo on the standard engine.

you can only tickle that turbo on the standard engine to keep it safe so unless you fit uprated rods you'd probably be better off with the faster spooling standard turbo.

.....or just tune it up as it is and tense your buttcheeks everytime you floor it

What mods have you got already ?

Fueling should of been looked at first, before turbo mate

If your forging it save your money for the inevitable runnin in issues that WILL happen.
