I love that feeling after doing a big job and everything works. Always a few teething issues when I do something like that but usually fine. Well done mate.

Helix, only people that would give me an actual figure when i asked what they would rate it to.


I dont even have a project thread, i suck at taking photos at the time. And i dont even have a project thread to put them in, done so much to it now.

Sweet... What turbo? Assume it's an r70 pump? Did you upgrade the lift pump too?

So, 180-190hp then. Will be sweeet!

I ran 189hp and 358lbft on a GT17 hybrid, a similar kind of size. I actually made a bit more power at the top end by messing around with a few other bits - but that was the best and most solid / repeatable number.

Will have to wait and see, not looking for max power from it but a decent number thats fairly reliable.

I'm so hard for this! And for you! You'll love the noise the screamer pipe makes. Its crazy good!! Specially in a big tunnel. People will hear you coming. Actually. Can I buy it back please?!

Excited about hearing your figures with the uprated pump too!
