Awesome, awesome car.

Can you tell us about the breakage (block crack and rod bent) and what caused this? Seems like your engine was dyno tuned.

Which turbo configuration is current, high mount or low mount? Both are pictured on your web site.

Thanks.

I like the tach swinging up to 8k - amazing what move valves will do to a tractor engine

Thanks

Redline is at 8100rpm.
The turbo is high mounted, the newest pictures is at the top of the page. The engine with lowmounted turbo is my old.

The broken block to the left is a b21 bored b23, it broke on the dyno 2 years ago. The rod were bent when it tried to compress the colingwater.
The block to the right is a B230 that cracked 2moths ago.

Unfortenatly the turbine on the turbo is to small so the exhaustpressure got to high to get better figures. It is possible to get 50-75hp more on racefuel but it feels better to run safe than on the edge.

My thoughts...

what transmission/clutch are you using, M90?
What made you weld the Trottle body on the front of the plennium? I like it alot, it's the 1st I have seen in that position on that style of manifold.

Car is so nice...



So are all of you swedes just born with car skills??

would appear to be a getrag (likely a 262 considering how short it is


and some form of sachs race clutch


or maybe a multi plate jobby
