My gt4202r has siezed and the PT7685 and PT7175 are listed as 'gt42 style' so I'm thinking the PT7175 for faster spool rather than max. hp. Both of them are toys compared to your P8285.

The 76 is the direct replacement for a 42 so should beable to slot it straight in. As for the 82 it looks exactly the same as the 76 and goes straight on as well but it is defiantly laggier but you'd expect that with a 10mm bigger rear wheel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That and I want to use big staged boost levels so it'll help plus datalogging and live tuning 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course I'll have to run it by Kyel first. I'm living in London for a couple of years but if I get a decent job I might send some some money home. I don't suppose you're planning on selling?

After a little mishap which has stopped us from racing this time I'm home I made the decision to pull everything down & out to check how things are goin internally. Whilst it's all apart the bottom end will get refreshed with new bearings, rings & the necassary gaskets with a few oil supply mods needed for higher revs. From here it gets abit more exciting. We're starting the fairly extensive head setup for it with oversized valves, porting & possibly the biggest cams put into a i6 engine yet. Exact specs havent been finalised but will be in the next few days with other mods to support the setup.All of this will be complemented by the haltech system & the newly built FPT 4in exhaust system with magnaflow mufflers & a upgraded fuel system to allow us to run meth when we're chasing those lower single digit numbers.We're not expecting this to take too long as the new engine/head builder is ready for it all & all the parts should be there tomorrow so we wont be mucking around as I want to get a few more runs on the board whilst the air is still cold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
