there temp tail pipes to get the fumes in the extraction as previously 3runs and your eye are streaming..

I have 3 sets of tail pipes lol the long ones for the dyno, these turned downwards ones in the hope it is quieter for noise tests and another set that exit straight, same both sides

I am hessitant to allow the torque to go up much more..

there will come a point when more boost doesnt give anymore power as the engine is very efficent with the cams I am using.. but the flat boost profile at low solenoid duty is promising..

Ultimately I would like to see 1000.. but these turbos wont do it even with race fuel..

But it comes a point when actually I am building it to go fast not just numbers on a graph... needs some playtime both racing and playing on the dyno some more.
