What turbo you using?

Is Rob tuning it?? If so 450 will be fine with e85 and a bigger than stock turbo & 20psi

e85 will be one of the main factors of it holding together, as will robs awesome tuning.

With the right turbo you won't need any aggressive tuning to make 450, but if your a douche and think you can hit 450 from a stocker or modded stocker, then yeah, it'll have to be a very aggressive tune to make the number, prob make it ok but putting alot of stress on a factory motor...

As awesome as e85 is, you still have the mechanical limitations of a factory built motor to contend with.

Yes tuned by Rob, running a gt4094 with 1.06 rear housing as far as I'm aware and pump fuel

My aim is to put the ute into the 10sec bracket on a highflowed .7 comp covered 35/40 turbo and I want as close to 450rwkw

and an extremely aggressive tune as I can get, martin donnan of willall racing will be tuning it. the car has the nizpro

plenum and ic kit, 4inch dump and 4inch nizpro zaust etc, im just wondering if the fg bottem end is the right donk for the job without having to put rods in. im not fussed if I have to, just wanted to know what ppl's thoughts were.

If you are not fussed, then it is a no brainer... change the rods..

so you have a bf with an fg motor. Did you blow the 1st motor? Now your wanting to push the fg block to the limits and possibly chance of blowing that to?

Seems like your made of money. Change the rods. If you have a manual, grab a set of billet oil bump gears too. Else boom again. But if your chasing 10's in a ute with 450rwkw im guessing you have a zf box as we have all seen how hard it is to make a manual into the 10s in a sedan let alone a ute.
