what do you guys think?

Made by Pulse Turbocharging, Sydney Australia

This particular conversion consists of:

OS Giken pistons
ported head
custom inlet manifold
tubular custom manifold (ceramic coated)
1/litre min MSD injectors
Motec M48 Pro
Turbosmart 45mm wastegate
Garrett GT35 ball bearing turbo
Front mounted air to air intercooler
and much more...

 

Looks to be for RHD only. Our battery would be in the way. The wastegate seems a little big and I think our intake manifold stock is plenty good. Any idea on what PSI they are running?

 

Looks good I want to see more pics. Looks like you have a oil cooler as well. Just wonders why they put the BOV before the intercooler???

 

Why try to cool the charge before it's simply blown into the open air? Seems like a pretty smart move to me...

That looks awesome I wonder Like 1. What type of emanage. 2. What type of diff is going to hold that power. 3. Can they properly tune it..

 

Reason why the BOV is placed before intercooler is due to local laws, the BOV must be recirculating. All race engines built by them are externally venting and placed post intercooler, before throttle body. Having it before the intercooler made plumbing easier, made it look cleaner and having a BOV anywhere in the tract was better than having nothing. Having said this, many factory cars have the BOV before the cooler as well. I have spoken to an engineer at Garrett USA who helped the development of the 2002 winning Le Mans Audi R8, and he says it makes very little difference where a BOV should be placed, but if he had to choose, post-intercooler would be ideal. (i'll try and find the email he sent me)

Hobbyholic: It uses a Motec M48 Pro - need i say more?

It idles perfectly and yes, a few different types of diffs are currently being looked at...
