You did beat me to the 2.4L though, Johnny!
You've had enough blacks. Time to go for a green.

LOL. No not yet. Drinking starts at 10:30. I'm still contemplating just going straight with this car now. Might as well push the black til it goes boom one day. Lots of other cars available out there to road race.

Yes the FP HTA Green, Red & Black have always been JB turbo's until recently. The Black & Red are now BB & the HTA Green is soon to follow.

Somewhere over 580, which is what Mikey put down. Had I to wager, the extra 4psi was probably 620-630 ft lbs with that timing and a 10.5 AFR.
