Our test car with engine removed ready for big turbos and big downpipes.

That's a big ol' lump!

Looking forward to seeing this progress!

Hi doug, what are the specs of the standard turbos like compared to the larger ones you intend on fitting? i read somewhere that the standard turbos are made by IHI, is that correct? are you looking at a significant difference in size or indeed type of turbo? cheers. Adam.

Outside physical dimensions cannot be increased due to packaging so the IHI internals will be moddified.

Ok that makes sense. Keep up the good work, look forward to seeing how you get on. Meantime, if you need a test driver to give an opinion i was test driver with an F1 team last season so used to 800+hp allbeit with a lot less torque lol....

yes mate, currently trying to sort out a race drive or reserve driver role for 2011. its so damn tough though its like trying to break into a mafia controlled cartell. luckily for me i was a driver for renault f1 with alonso and co which helps and gives a bit of cred. unfortunatly this year nearly every driver old and new has had to bring money with them example being Kubica and Petrov bringin around 6 and 12 million respectively at renault aswell as almost every other driver and team and i just couldnt compete with that so sitting out this year and aiming to get a budget sorted for next year. nothing to do with how good a driver you are which the popular assumption would be, but heres to trying.

meantime keeping sharp ripping about in a car ive always wanted, my RS6, keeps me from boredom !
