what mods for 400-450bhp
#63
No, you're just making assumptions as usual. At no time have I said that I'll be getting 600bhp from a GT30R.
I know full well its only capable of 520bhp as I know the exact spec of my own turbo.
As I've already said I'm either going GT35/40 or 4088 eventually. Hopefully that's sunk in and we won't be having this conversation again

Yes, of course, it would just take longer. When my car was running in the mid 300~400 range it would often see 140 in 4th. It really depends on the rev limit and the particular gear ratios you have.
May go see what a certain white can can achieve now, eh Steve? Cheeky bu55er!

my own car made 592 with the GT35/42 at 2.1bar running VPower and methanol on Zen's dastek dyno.
AS any thought to ask if a boost gauge is being used, at what does that read? or is the OP just reading from the prinout where the boost sensor may not have been connected, thus reading atmospheric, ie 1bar ?????

to get 450, your gonna need to simply go out to your garage, take out the old engine, gearbox and clutch and then go see a tuner, or you could get them to take engine out for you lol
basicly its a full rebuild of engine and gearbox, cheapest 450bhp package out there is scoobyclinics sc450, but as far as gearbox then not sure, guessing you wanna keep the ratios of your old box (or perhaps extend 5th gear abit) so you'll prb need a custom built gearbox.
give em a bell and have a natter

I know my car cost less to build than the sc450 package, though I did buy most of the bits myself and some are 2nd hand but the build work and fitting of the parts was done at Pennine Subaru.

With a full blown PPG, Clutch big enough to cope with (500bhp) and an Autronics ECU fitted and mapped not to mention the £1500 turbo??? I think not.
Don't get me wrong unlike some, I'm not some Scooby clinic stooge, my fallout with them is quite well known, I just think this is astonishing value for money. Especially when you compare what nearly £9K got me at TSL ( a very basic forged rebuild) No turbo, no gearbox, no ecu, no extra fueling infact I must put the invoice on here one of these days.

When comparing prices, you need to compare on a "like for like" basis, otherwise pricing can be a little misleading.
The Clinic offer a good package, but so do others.

yup, alhough not sure about reliability issues.
not that im saying they arnt or are, i just havn't heard any good or bad reports of similar costs builds lasting as long.
also on a side note the development engine ( 3 and half years old) ran at scoobyshootout and was only .8 seconds off the gobstoper iirc has dropped down to 420bhp, but 30 bhp drop on that sort of engine and 3 years is pretty dam good in anyones book

I couldn't agree more, but then it would be worth knowing just who's internals are in the 22B's "development" engine, and what turbo it's running !!!

no mate, kev as in gaffers 22b.
kevs car is running high 500's as i understand it, or was before the last round of time attack lol
#90
