Nez just so you know.... when I made those few changes back in the fall my car went from 462whp @ 29psi to 505whp @ 29psi on our dyno with the only real power mod added being our cams. Torque also jumped up 40ft lbs. I did put in larger injectors and our modified fuel pump for a little added safety as well. The pistons, rods and valve springs were only added for safety.
Im wanting to jump to even larger injectors and our twin pump setup to run on E85 this year. Not sure if this will be done by May 7 though.

There is no question that those cams are the sh*t and they are a good price. I deff need them in my car. I will be getting a hold of you about that in the next month and a half. r u still on stock retainers?

Anywho, back on topic. My point was to the fact that the individual stated that he had issues with passing in 5th gear among other lag issues. I simply put that for similar power he could have installed a 50 trim and netted nearly the same power (on 93 and meth, if you don't believe me call AMS) and would have better spool.
So continue on...as usual people forget to look up before they jump to conclusions.

I wish he'd turn up the boost a little bit to see the results!

Everyone's got a different goal in mind for their car. My goals are along the lines of Jarrod's -- fast *** car around town, keeping it driveable and safe on the street. I'll be lucky if this car ever makes more than 10 passes down a track in its life. (Jarrod's going to make a lot more).
I'm not chasing a particular ET or whp #. I just want a fast, driveable, safely tuned, fun car.
I don't drive my car in the rain or snow, but I drive it every chance I get the rest of the year, so I guess it is a daily driver. I've been driving it all week long, and love it more and more. The lag doesn't bother me. I'm not saying "lag is over-rated," just that it doesn't bother me. That's life with a bigger turbo. I rev the engine a lot higher, and downshift more often, and I love doing that.
I feel more involved with driving now, because I'm watching the boost, watching the revs, feeling the clutch, watching for the alky to begin spraying. I'd rather be doing all that than doing almost anything else in the world. I like being involved and aware of my driving when I'm driving. That's what it's all about for me.
All in all, I'm thrilled with this turbo and the cosworth cams.

What impressed me most about your car was the smoothness (am I seeing a trend here) and all that freekin TQ. You pop this turbo on and you will probably loose 100 ft/lbs of TQ. But you'll probably gain 70-100+ whp because I feel you have more quite a bit more work done than B and you'll probably end up running quite a bit more boost. Your cars power band will be dramatically different. It'll feel more like a real race car and probably less like the high TQ rally machine. I dont know man. Seems like a win win situation to me.

The block has never been out of the car. It is not o-ringed. We only o-ring the head. I just did the drop in pistons and rods in the car. I just wanted the upgraded safety thats why I switched the internals. The stock stuff was still working but just in case I didnt want a stock rod breaking and going through the block. Blocks are to expensive to just buy a new one.
I have run 30psi on my current setup with no issues. Our drop in Crower rods / JE Pistons, ARP headstuds, OEM headgasket, no o-ring, etc..... Shifting at 8500. Im not telling any of you to do that but thats just how I drive.
