Chhhooooo chooo chooooooo

That's a fair bit of boost. You'd be better off running a 14psi spring and using a boost controller to go from there. You'll have much more accurate control over spiking and boost limits.

I doubt you'd go much more than 18psi on this setup.

Did some work on it during the week.

Installed the pinion brace on the gearbox as well as a new Sachs race throwout bearing and a Bar-Tek Tuning reinforced clutch fork.
Then bolted the gearbox to engine and installed the BFI stage 1 engine and gearbox mounts and the engine was then dropped into the car. Just need to do the oil lines, coolant lines, intercooler piping and fuel lines next.

Plenty of work done since last update:

-Oil feed and return done
-Pump mounted for AWIC
-FPR mounted
-Fuel lines complete
-Aux pump relocated and all coolant lines complete
-Heat exchanger for AWIC mounted
-Surge tank and external pumps mounted and lifter pump mounted in fuel tank

Next is to install drive shafts and finish IC piping including BOV. Not long now before it's off for the tune!
