You are in the right neighborhood as far as price goes.

Probably gonna need the bigger turbo to do that, but I think it's possible

what is your plan on the axle waddage? 3.73 now?

Interested to see the dyno #'s from your new head. Are your header windows matched?

maxman142001 · 10-15-2008, 10:08 PM

what was the wait time on the head?

Dunno if it's a 3.91 or a 3.73, that doesn't matter. Needs more beef

And what about windows?

Forever

I didn't deal directly with Erland, so can't really say why it took so long...

port matched header<->head ? If I recall when I got my proturbo, the exhaust opening was incredibly small compared to the stock head, let alone ported. I think I had to take out about 1/8" to match a stock window and another 1/16 to match my port. Maybe you didn't have the same problem from another batch.

Looking forward to see your solution for beefage/adapting to kojaks.

What are said goals?

Good head.

linuxman51 · 10-15-2008, 11:50 PM

the true potential of this new setup will not be realized until rob straps a bigger turbo on the car. the little gt28 chokes it everywhere. I can't wait to see what it does with some flowz.

blkaplan · 10-16-2008, 12:31 AM

i bet the intake manifold is playing a decent factor at the moment too, and the lack of dyno tuning with the completely new and different setup

10-16-2008, 12:35 AM

hes going with a kenny one right?

As many that fall for my clever ruse. Its so much easier this time of year with all the Halloween candy and such.

Hard to believe that "little gt28" is the issue.

Time for big boy turbozzzzzzzzzzzzz.

not really. its a tiny turbo. rob just got the encyte option and enhanced its outward size with bigger housings.

that's a nice chunk of aluminium (spelled for brits) that i could never afford. i do like the 262 head though.
