Black DT VNT XUD Wagon

[THE_Liam]

It could probably sniff 200hp with that, but that's likely to end in really high EGTs and EMPs etc... You'd be talking 28psi or so at the inlet, by that point you're looking at 60psi exhaust mani pressure, half of the gas is staying in the cylinder on the way out - that's why I'm considering a bigger turbo really... A GT22 would solve that, but I kinda like the way it is now, ask anyone who's been in it with the VNT, it's just instant power - that's what makes it quick "for what it is" - there really is no discernible lag on gearchange.

Oh and add to that list a rebuilt pump... My one currently leaks like a sieve!

So am I right in thinking your gonna build an engine that's capable of huge power, but your not gonna run it right on its limit so you aren't worrying about stuff blowing up? Nice to see something different. Then again, I remember when 160-170bhp was seen as the top end of what was possible, now your talking about 185bhp and keeping it reliable and civilised

Also, I remember when this were all fields and a pint 'o bitter down t'pub were 2 bob and halfpenny...
