From: Leeds - It was 562.4bhp@28psi on Optimax, How much closer to 600 with race fuel and a bigger turbo?

Fardon Engineering supplied Marks and Adams IIRC.

so speak to mark..

EJ25 crank may suffice depending on stroke req.

mine was a farndon crank,

awful people to deal with and not worth the grief.

standard ones have proven reliable at well over 400lbft all day long.

all subaru cranks are forged.

Billet may well be ott. In hindsight I wouldn't do it again, even at almost 600lbft.
