Big for this thread lol, you are basically assembling a car knowing full-well it's going to die. Hahahha awesome I don't have any glaringly obvious parts that are going to break now, just me being the person assembling it all

Thoght id post up the dyno graphs from the other day, Steve Sadler again!
This is on 97ron fuel, on my total bog stock 125k mile sr20det engine, with 10 individual hair line cracks in the head, dodgy bores, reused big end shells and basicly just abused for the last 25k miles





Look at the peak boost to get that torque figer
