Sydneykid, feel free to PM me your honest opinion :P

I think we would all like to hear it. Whats it like on the street, does it just burst into wheel spin as soon as you get on boost? looks like it would be a handful to drive fast.

Dont get me wrong, i wasnt trying to put a downer on your results mate.. And im all for wheelspin.

My old 180 had 360rwhp and spun in 3rd coming onto boost on some surfaces.... but thought in 4th and with 197rwkw (or any car that spins a lot in 4th for that matter) you might want to look at your setup.

As fun as wheelspin is, nothing feels as awesome when it hooks up and slams you hard into the seat.

ok, the car is a drift car, not s street car, so i was after a fairly sharp torque range in the midrange for responce and the ability to keep the tyres smoking after entering a high speed corner while slowing down for a slow speec hair pin. XSomething a stock Rb20 doesnt do well.

not too fussed about making much more peak power... would rather have reliability and midrange torque then massive peak HP.

cheers

me = 270rwkw + no loss of traction coming on boost in 2nd/3rd at all running 245 streeters.... then i went to 300+ and only then did it squirm. Gotta control the right foot :(

That was a nice push into the seat.

guess thats the joy of linear power rather than a light-switch.

but a light-switch turbo would be much better suited to drift one would think. But i guess you can argue either way

... whereas with a bb turbo it would be more gradual resulting in less wheelspin.

Thats funny as the cars with big BB turbo that i have been in kick you in the guts and knock your teeth out! Then my turbo for isntance seems a bit duller when it ramps onto boost.

Perhaps mine has been tuned with the fact its rwd and i go to the track in mind??? I dont know, but the supposed hard boosting trust turbo on mine doesnt seem to hit hard...i want to scare myself when it comes onto boost , who cares if its slower :thumbsup:
