Originally the stroker kit came with shorter rods so an off the shelf piston could be used.

We scrapped that idea and decided to use an off the shelf rod (longer) with a custom piston.

A longer rod Improves rod to stroke ratio and reduces wear on the thrust side of the cylinder. A custom piston also allowed us to decide how much valve relief was cut into the top as the UNIGROUP cams have big lift

So you are staying with the EU 260 10.8s

I am glad I know shit all about cars, it gets too technical when you want to push the motor :(

You blokes made it an easy decision for me, I thought what was the easiest way to get what I want from my car without knowing all of the technical stuff, I went with with the stroker build and I did not have to take anything off the car that I spent money on , except for the Poncams B, I have kept everything else under the hood.

The 2.6L 8374 equipped missle i went in today certainly sealed the deal with everybody that went in it.. Including some pretty hardcore #twinturboGTR4lyf mofos! They even buried the notion of needing 2 turbos for response in this wonderful age of lightweight billet materials and black magic aerodynamics that make 1 turbocharger enough to tear ya face off from 4000rpm to redline (in 2nd gear) from a 800hp turbo :)

Do you know what rear housing this car had? If it's the same car that Piggaz mentions a few posts on, sounds like it might have been the 1.05 (external gate)? Sounds pretty interesting, I had always thought that a 1.05 rear housing on a 2.6L was quite large and potentially laggy but perhaps technology has come a long way in the last few years.

It was the 1.05.

I had the same thoughts in my head before I got in it. Yes it had v cam BUT it also had a F con v pro which was half assed tuned on a 37 degree day. I can't see the point in going back to the 0.92 IWG, it went that well.

So much untapped potential that's for sure.

    • The cam I am actually putting in (a few posts up) is actually smaller than my current one. At least duration/overlap wise. All the chop stuff I hear just sounds like an engine running badly, because it is. I then envision driving it around in 1st gear and being massively sad about it bucking to the beat of said chop. There is an idle video of someone with a similar cam floating around the internet, but mine is a custom cam (so is his) so it'll never be the same, plus the fact exhausts are entirely different. What I want to do is put some bullet mufflers/race mufflers in to replace a couple sections straight pipes that currently replace the two extra cats that I don't need. But this is even further down the line!
    • I can tell you now, when the bracket that the little hydraulic ram attaches to snaps, with a subframe, and V8 from an AMG C63 on it, it sounds like someone letting shotgun off right beside you. It leaves your ears ringing, and a huge thankfulness that you never ever put a body part under something heavy that's only supported by a hydraulic lift...
    • Still not a guarantee fix. I used a high quality butyl-mastiq (the black goo that's not really silicone nor polyurethane, same stuff they use from the factory that just spreads out like melty cheese), and I still get lots of water on both sides of the trunk when raining or washing the car. I also suspect the factory spoiler rubber gasket might not be sealing well, so I'm thinking of adding a thin layer of grey silicone around the bolt holes on both sides and see if that's where it also leaks from. The biggest issue is that these cars don't come with a drain hole on each side like other coupes and hatchbacks.
    • I hate it, but maybe he could paint it Monster jam style and call it...godzilla?
    • Would seem to me to be appropriate to go GTR style bar. There are options with and without N1 vent holes, with the GTR lower lip integral (because FG copy). https://justjap.com/search?q=r32 bumper
