A few questions for you.

Was the car running ok before the rebuild? (I know you are getting it rebuilt for a good reason) But was it ok before?

I wouldn't put a freshly rebuilt motor on the dyno. Unless the car didn't run at all before?

If your turbo is buggered, look up GT Pumps. Get one of his turbos, you will need to change your exhaust dump pipe and any cooler pipe work a bit. But well worth it.

A new fuel pump is a very good idea! Dyno or not!

Dave at Redzone is a good bloke to talk to. Or try looking up coltspeed. He is in Port Macquarie.

Hope this helps and good luck with the rebuild!

Cheers Jason

if you're going to the expense of rebuulding the motor, why not put forged pistons in there? I don't think they would be that much more expense wise, but it will be well worth it!
