Ukexpat 0 Posted May 9, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 9, 2012 I forgot the turbo spec is;Precision 60 Trim with 0.82ar exhaust housing; with a 39mm Precision wastegate..i am hoping that the C2 #42 software (440cc) will be enough for 400whp I am also planning to go 02M 6 speed FWD and 630 tune down the line.........All the parts are finally all purchased (wallet can recover for a week or two!)so as they arrive we will get into it - there is a winter drag series here so i am hoping by mid June (2nd meet) i will be there.....
