He is very careful with the temps and starts the fans earlier. There is no smoke on boost. FMIC and 11mm on a big turbo.
Head beeing lifted? Is the presure that lifts the head or the big volume of air? What ARP studs should he buy? Were close friends and that's why i'm asking. High EGT's burn turbos and makes the engine run hot. Corect? The engine sits nice and cold so don't see why EGT's should be a problem.
Can somebody please tell me what ARP studs to buy. Saw recently some ARPs on a XUD with no spacers.
I was only suggesting it because the bigger pump and turbo combo have the potential to generate a lot of heat, which can cause hot spotting of the head, and given the fact it's alloy it won't take a lot to warp it. Personally I'd never run anything over stock without an EGT after seeing how high they can get...
