Finally got some decent power out of her ....



Mods so far ....................

Forged CP pistons .40 thou oversize, Stainless steel head gasket (Thanks again Redzone for sourcing these & all your help along the way :)

reground crank, new bearings, oil seals, 4 puck ceramic clutch
KKR-430 turbo (running 18-19psi) - custom exhaust manifold (ceramic coated), external gate (ultragate 38mm) screamer pipe, 3 inch exhaust straight through, turbo blanket (needed to keep heat off brake reservoir)
New head & valves, double valve springs, stage 2 camtech cam, adjustable cam gear, ARP head bolts (with 10mm spacers)
L300 distributor & manifold, modified to face front of car & enlarged, VN V6 throttle body, 650cc injectors, Microtech LT10s (fuel & spark), Eboost, MSD ignition amplifier (wasted spark) & MSD coil
450x300x100 intercooler

Drives well above 3000rpm a little sluggish down thanks to the cam but you learn to drive a little differently & avoid boost in the rain !!

Will post more pics of engine bay when I remember

12 inch square kicker 750w rms sub in custom fibreglass box (my first fibreglass attempt not real good looking but sounds good)

Nice work ash, good to see pics of her finally :)

Well done... and 7th on the list :D

Cool show us the eng

Very nice :) lots of power :)

Hey nice to see someone follow the SOHC route. What would you compare a KKR 430 to out of the mitsi or garrett range of turbos?

they come on power HARD at about 3000 rpm on a sohc starion, and are rated to produce 430hp. they are a plain bearing (though 360 degree thrust) type turbo. basically they're a brand new T3 T4 hybrid....
