the metal plate you have welded onto the chass leg looks abit weak mate. only looks like 1-2mm plate with holes cut in which makes it loose even more strengh, you want some 4-5mm for engine mounting stuff. as soon as you boost that will just twist.

nice turbo be care with that new engine

what PSI you looking at running and power you hoping for?

good work mate

i have thought this we will have to see what happens .

as for power i havent had much thought of capability or what i wanted from it. its got phase 3.5. but the only internals are con rod bolts. so i dont want to/cant go too mad.

wise man was looking into all the EDS phase gear and talking to a few people about it and people who run phase 3 an above with standard internals are playing with fire...

I reckon phase 2 would be plenty enough for a Nova having expereinced a phase 3.5 Nova LET...even with a diff he couldnt get the power down...it just span both wheels instead of one

Also from phase 3 to 3.5 he noticed no difference in his standing 1/4's
