Spoke to Rich Walker about his 'charged '6. On his ~430hp map he dusted a Gallardo down the strip at 'pod. LOL

I'd love to be able to spend £10k on the '6, but my bank manager and the missus wont let me!!! Tongue

Be much better off doing it yourself with second hand bits from smashed up s/c'd cars imo!

A mate of mine was the first to have the conversion done after Rich's and subsequently had it High boosted and I have the distinct impression he's a bit bored of it now! Don't think he'll ever sell it though cos he'd lose so much money!

Yeah but the first highboosters were only 380-odd hp iirc... the high-high boost utilises stand-alone management, a re-circ valve mounted in the charger housing, and the throttle body being located properly onto the inlet (rather than the lash-up of having it pre-charger to avoid the stock ecu seeing boost and having a shit-fit)

They also use the C38-81 charger, which is the next size up from the regular high-boosters... It can support 600hp.... I doubt many would get bored of that!!! ninja

Id go down the birk route :-) turbo yo! Noone knows what kind of powerr to expect but 600+ is inevitable
