I personally made 480whp with my bbk on a dynojet but first weather and then an accident prevented me from ever getting the car down the 1/4 mile.

To this day I think that the bbk/green are perfect *the* perfect size for most evo owners. On e85 you can max out a set of 1000cc injectors and a standard walbro and be right at the safe limit of the stock block while still making enough TORQUE down low to make a car full of guys giggle and enough power up top to get you into the 125-127mph area.

Isay do it, powerband is what makes these cars fun!

Robert would have to design his own bb center section. Robert should be coming out with something soon. I think Chad even hinted in a thread a few weeks ago about him coming out with a new turbo too.

I am send my turbo to Owens some time down the road. I'm still waiting for that joke to dyno his BB Black.
